High Kick: Revenge of the Short Legged
South Korean sitcom High Kick: Revenge of the Short Legged aired from 2011 to 2012. It explored the lives of people who are down and out and how they manage to recover, revolving around the Ahn family and their neighbors.
The drama begins when Nae-sang's business partner flees the country, leaving behind a mountain of debts and a swarm of angry creditors. After Nae Sang's plans to live with his great uncle fall through, the family is both bankrupt and homeless, with nowhere to stay for the night (the old man has died and sold his house). They call Yoo Sun's younger brother, Kye-sang, in desperation. They make the decision to move into the house he shares with Ji-seok, Yoo-sun's other brother.
The series follows several subplots to their conclusion, including Ha-sun and Ji-seok's relationship, Jin-hee's search for a stable career, the one-sided love triangle between Ji-won, Jin-hee, and Kye-sang, and Jong-seok (Lee Jong-suk)'s unrequited love for Ji-won.
