Min-jae, a fastidious young civil servant, takes on a new post, eager to impress in his new district while he takes care of his younger brother at home. Little does he expect that he will end up locking horns with the elderly Ok-boon, known as the ‘goblin granny’ she terrorizes the office with innumerable complaints on a daily basis.
However, before the rivalry gets the best of either of them, Ok-boon discovers that Min-jae is a great English speaker, and since she desperately wishes to reconnect with her long-lost brother in America, she makes him a proposition: a moratorium on abusing the office’s resources in exchange for English lessons. Before long the two grow close until some long-buried secrets make a very public return to the surface.
