A mysterious asteroid nearly crash-lands on Earth in 2013 and causes strange things to happen, specifically to the Noh family and their neighbors.[1][2] The show begins with Na Jin Ah and her mother Gil Sun-Ja living in a shabby house on the outskirts of Seoul. Jin-Ah dreams of pursuing a career in Kong Kong, a toy company, which her late father contributed to, but due to a lack of a college degree and experience, her application is rejected from the screening process. Meanwhile, the eldest son of the Noh family, Noh Min-Hyuk, prepares to inherit the role of CEO in Kong Kong. Also, the current CEO and head of the Noh family, Noh Soo-Dong is preparing to leave the company due to bladder sensitivity issues. Other members of the Noh family include the father of Soo-Dong, Noh Song, his wife Wang Yoo-Jung, their two daughters, Noh Bo-Young and Noh Soo-Young, and their pet dog, Cheol-Min.[3]
