Synopsis
Maeng Jin-sa (Kim Seung-ho), the patriarch of a village household in the Chosun era, is obsessed with his social status and constantly schemes to elevate it. He arranges to marry off his daughter Gap-bun (Lee Bin-hwa) to Mi-eon (Kim Jin-kyu), the son of Minister Kim. When a rumour spreads that his future son-in-law is crippled, he resorts to tricks to marry off his maid Ip-bun (Choi Eun-hee) instead.
