Plot

Summarize
Perspective

Throughout her school days, Oh Soo-jung (Uhm Jung-hwa) was the girl every boy wanted to date, and every girl wanted to be. But having watched her poor family disintegrate after her mother abandoned her incompetent father, Soo-jung naturally becomes cynical and demanding when it comes to picking her choice of man. She dates Go Man-soo (Oh Ji-ho), an Ivy League law student, despite the lack of physical attraction (he is overweight and nerdy). But the moment she finds out that he has failed his bar exam, poor Man-soo gets dumped. Eight years later, the tables are turned. Soo-jung, now in her thirties, is no longer in demand. The former "it girl" has since fallen from grace. She manages a jewelry store owned by a less attractive schoolmate who married a lawyer, and now barks at Soo-jung every chance she gets.

Man-soo returns from the States a changed man; he has transformed into famous, rich, hunky pro-golfer Karl Go. He hires Jung Woo-tak (Kang Sung-jin) to play a wealthy bachelor, and once Soo-jung falls in love with him, he's to jilt her at the altar in the same way she jilted Man-soo. Meanwhile, Karl pretends to be the debt-ridden boyfriend of Soo-jung's boarder, Yook Dae-soon (Park Da-an). But his revenge plans go awry when he and Soo-jung fall in love with each other again. On her wedding day to Woo-tak, Soo-jung runs away and chooses Karl despite believing he's poor. Bitter that Karl chose a girdle-clad "old maid" over her, Dae-soon not only steals her creative ideas for jewelry design, but reveals to Soo-jung that Karl has been making a fool of her all this time. In the end, Soo-jung triumphs over Dae-soon professionally, then proposes to Karl, and they finally get married.
