All four members of Ki-Thek's family are unemployed. And it seems that something will change in the near future... These people think only about one thing - how to survive. And here Ki-woo's eldest son has an opportunity to fix everything: his friend, a student at a prestigious university, asks to replace him in a rather lucrative job as a tutor. The guy understands that this is his chance to find a good income. For the sake of this position, the still very young Ki-woo had to forge his university graduation documents, but it was worth it. And then came the day of the interview with his possible employer, Mr. Park, and he was hired. Over time, an excellent interaction appeared between the two families, which pleased Ki-Thek very much. But it stands on a very fragile foundation - on a lie.
