Their children, who regard each other as sworn enemies, are also involved. It premiered on KBS1 on September 28, 2026, and airs every Monday to Friday at 20:30 (KST).

Her youngest daughter, Da-mi, also quits her job unexpectedly, leaving Jo Mi-mi to manage the renewed challenges of supporting her family.
