Kim Jung Hwa is a young and sincere middle school teacher, who has little interest in money. She is also extremely warm-hearted and loves to help other people. When she helps carry an elderly man's belongings from the train to another location, the elderly man is extremely thankful. This grandfather turns out to be the extremely rich owner of a well known conglomerate. His grandson, Kang Dong Won is a quick-tempered businessman who rivals his grandfather, but in an almost comical way. In an order to "tame" his favorite grandson, the grandfather agrees to give his entire fortune to the person who marries Kim Jung Hwa, therefore forcing Kang to meet the girl whom his grandfather chose. Although at first Kim and Kang don't get along because of Kang's extremely cute but bad temper, their arguments bring them closer together. Kang starts to get jealous when Kim's fellow teacher starts liking her too. Through the clever conditions that Kang's grandfather makes, Kang starts a relationship he does not look forward too. However, what looked like a relationship that would 99% not work out, turns out to be the "perfect" match, the 1% chance. --Soompi

  This drama was full of twists and turns. The concept of the parents or grandparents picking their kids/grand-kids life partners is so hard for me to take in. All these dramas w/ the blind dates being set up for ppl to get to know each other for the intent of marriage is like taking away the persons right to love who they want. But it can work out if the person writing the script puts that into the story!
  
  
  
  The idea that 1% of anything is worth fighting for just made the drama for me. It totally lets those of us that don't think that way understand the concept of y all these girls in these drama's r so persistent. I don't know any1 who would stay w/ some1 even though they knew they would not get anything in return. I guess the idea that there is always some1 else out there is more common in the US (which is probably y the divorce rate is so high).
  
  
  
  Anyway, I loved this and will watch it again. I recommend that every1 give this 1 a try. read more

  I really enjoyed this drama. It was one of the first dramas I saw. Since then I have seen quite a few. It is not the best drama out there by any stretch of the imagination, but it is sweet and endearing. When I watch a drama, I am always looking for that emotional connection. If I can't connect with the drama, or care for the characters, no matter how amazing the plot is , it would not be enjoyable for me. With that in mind, this drama still remains one of my favourites. The plot is simple and easy to follow,but plagued with the usual problems that face most Korean dramas, that is, it is uneven and could have had better pacing,slowing down significantly in the later episodes. However this dramas major strenght is its cast. Kang Dong Won is great here as the ill tempered lead, Jae In, who ends up being comical and endearing. It was great seeing him change and evolve as a person as the drama progressed. The main romantic pairing is cute and believable, but most importantly they make you care. You want them to be happy , to succeed. It is a great journey, filled with laughs (you can thank a petulant Jae In for most of those), sighs and a few awwws.Recommended for an easy, heartfilled watch. read more

  Shining Inheritance

  In both dramas the leading male's inheritance is threatened by the leading female and they eventually fall in love.

  18 vs. 29

  They both contain that fluffy and cute romance between the characters. I thought both match each other well.
