Lee Ji-hyun:Ji-hyun is a girl from a big city who moves to a rural village to earn money to start her own business. She adores money as the standard of everything in life and the sole purpose of living. But that doesn't mean that she recklessly pursues windfall profits. This upbeat, a bit indiscreet yet talented girl has a good sense of style and dreams of creating her own apparel brand someday. She drinks espresso only in high-end coffee shops and takes club dance classes to be at her best when she goes clubbing. Albeit audacious and unabashed on the outside, she has a pure heart deep inside.
