Park Tae Joon is an intelligent law student and a filial son to his parents who run a mill. He has a younger brother, Tae Soo, who is not quite as academic, but still quite smart and a known brat in town, and a younger sister, the kind and gentle-hearted Sun Hee. Kim Mi Ja, Tae Joon's love interest, is from the same town and is sick and tired of living in poverty. She desires to leave their small town for a better life. One day after their father's death, the family learns that they will lose their home as a pledge due to an assurance their father has made before his death.
