Dong Chol-dong is a widower who lives with his only son, Dong-hyun. Chol-dong makes his living by blackmailing companies for their immoral activities, and in his spare time devotes himself to such activities as measuring the length of toilet paper, so he can sue the paper company if it is shorter than advertised. His son, Dong-hyun, is a bully who will go to any lengths to get what he wants. The lives of these two men take a turn when a divorced woman, Oh Mi-mi, rents a room in their house. Both fall in love with her, and they turn on each other to win her heart.
