Synopsis
Lee Kyung Chul (Park In Hwan) has three grandsons from his son Lee Min Ho (Park Sang Won) and Han Kyung Ae (Kim Hye Ok). The grandsons are dentist Oh Min Seok (Lee Yoon Jae), family law attorney Lee Hyun Jae (Yoon Shi Yoon), and the youngest Lee Soo Jae (Seo Bum June).
The three are too focused on their work that they don’t consider getting married. Lee Kyung Chul and his son are concerned that none of his grandsons is interested in marriage. They decided to gift an apartment to one of the grandsons who can marry within 6 months.
The second brother Lee Hyun Jae starts developing romantic feelings for one of his clients Hyun Mi Rae (Bae Da Bin) who wanted to nullify her previous marriage. Lee Yoon Jae—the first brother—meets Shim Hae Joon (Shin Dong Mi), who is Hyun Jae’s colleague in the law firm.
