Kim Ji Suk is a South Korean actor. Born on April 21, 1981, he attended middle school and high school in England and majored in German at Hankuk University of Foreign Studies. He also has a master’s degree in Cultural Contents Planning from Kyung Hee University. Kim Ji Suk started his career as a rapper in the boy band LEO but the group disbanded after only eight months. His agency recommended he take his stage name because his birth name, Kim Bo Seok, could be confused with two other veteran actors. Kim Ji Suk began his acting career in the 2004 music video for Kim Hyung Joong’s “She’s Laughing,” followed by several minor roles. But he became a household name after he appeared in the successful 2009 film “Take Off.” He has starred in many other films and television dramas since, including “Slave Hunters” (2010), “I Need Romance 2” (2012), “Cheongdam-dong Alice” (2012), “Angel Eyes” (2014), “Unkind Women” (2015), “Cheer Up!” (2015) and “Oh Hae Young Again” (2016) and “20th Century Boy and Girl” (2017).

Na Young Won (Jung So Min) is a successful senior editor at the hit monthly magazine Monthly House. Although her glittering journalistic career spans a decade, her home situation is not quite as idyllic as those she spends her time reporting on. In fact, she lives alone in a rented house and happily makes adjustments as she sees fit. But when the magazine’s CEO Yoo Ja Sung (Kim Ji Suk) buys the house and becomes her fussy new landlord, she is in for a shock.

Yoo Ja Sung proves to be a very difficult landlord to keep happy. He grew up in poverty, initially working in the construction industry, but determined to make his fortune through real estate investment. For him, buying the house Na Young Won lives in is little more than another financial transaction. But as the duo starts to get to know one another, their attitudes toward the real estate market – and one another – start to change. Suddenly, Na Young Won starts to ask herself if she would be better off buying her own house...or beginning on an unlikely romance with her firm’s CEO!

It's not that we were born badly, nor did we have evil hearts. However, sometimes, they demand a harsher price than we have done. Life is about how to take responsibility for mistakes and forgive others.
