Lee Ju-il

Kyeong-il and his sister, Kyeong-a, run a store together, but Kyeong-il is hospitalized when competitors beat him up. In the hospital, he falls in love with a nurse. She is already engaged so the only way he can continue seeing her is to manufacture reasons to stay in the hospital.

Lee Ju-Il dreams a lot of things. He wants to be proud of himself to his lover named Maeng-Ja, so that he comes to Seoul to become a member of show performance group of the theater. He is fired because of unexpected mistake to be expelled in the first show performance. While being astray, he lives marriage life with Maeng-Ja under poor conditions. His wife is forced to go to hospital and take Caesar's surgery, but is in short of money for the surgery. He is barely employed to become an assistant presider of local area performance, but is fired soon because his face does not look handsome. Thus, he loses a hope. Thanks to an ambitious producer's help, he becomes a top class actor in the show stage and attracts a lot of people who once looked down upon him in the past.
