Characters
  • BONG PIL / Cast. Kim Jae-Joong
    He is a third-generation only son in the Bong family. He once dreamed of becoming a sprinter. Now he is a hopeless and jobless bum who has been preparing for the civil service exam for three years. His family has cut off all financial support. He just messes around in the neighborhood like he has nothing else to do. There is one thing in the world that ignites passion in him: Sujin, his next door neighbor. Just because they were born in the same ward, he believes they are fated to be together and had a crush on her for 28 years. He might act all grumbly and mean to Sujin, but the whole neighborhood knows how much he loves her.

  • KANG SU JIN / Cast. U-Ie
    She is Pil's lifelong crush and also a bride-to-be getting married to a handsome pharmacist in a week. She may have been born and raised in the same neighborhood as Pil, but she was born with an elegant look unlike others. She once dreamed of being a painter, but she had to quit because of Pil. She went through so many twists and turns in her life because of Pil, not to mention being dragged to the police station. She knows too well why Pil acts that way. Although she is tired of Pil's crooked ways of expressing his affection, she doesn't quite hate his feelings toward her.

But no one knows that there's a shy girl, a woman rather, inside her. Pil has been using her for 28 years to achieve his love for Sujin. When she was young, she ran into Pil inside a women's public bathhouse. She was embarrassed back then, but that was long time ago now. Ever since she sealed off her femininity, she throws dirty jokes at Pil and makes him flustered.
