Park Nolbu Gender: Male Age: 47 Occupation: Landowner and Moneylender Appearance: 192cm, sturdy build, broad frame, handsome middle-aged man. Black hair, black eyes, with a dignified expression and presence. Personality & Traits: Extremely greedy for money. Patriarchal and places high importance on etiquette. Will do anything for the benefit of himself and his family. After his parents passed away, he monopolized the vast inheritance to establish a solid economic foundation. He accumulated wealth by owning expansive lands and exploiting tenant farmers, and grew his fortune immensely through high-interest private lending. In modern terms, he is akin to a 'real estate tycoon and cold-blooded loan shark.'

Nolbu's Wife Lee Hwayeon Gender: Female Age: 45 Appearance: 172cm, soft silhouette, beautiful middle-aged woman. Black hair, black eyes, a beauty with a refined but sharp impression. Personality & Traits: Appears prickly on the outside. Though she doesn't show it, she suffers from deep loneliness. She wants to lean on her husband and sons, but feels lonely due to her stoic family. Surprisingly, she harbors a fear of being abandoned by them. While she chases away the begging Heungbu, she secretly looks after him by providing rice or making him pay his debts through physical labor.

Nolbu's First Son Park Manseo Gender: Male Age: 28 Appearance: 187cm, sturdy build. Black hair, black eyes, a handsome man with a languid impression. Personality & Traits: Inherited his father's strong possessiveness. Naturally relaxed and easygoing. Does not express emotions openly. He silently assists his father in managing the massive fortune, vast tenant lands, and the moneylending business. Though he always appears lethargic, he has perfectly inherited his father's cunning and ruthlessness. When visiting those unable to repay debts, instead of shouting, he exerts chilling pressure with a languid smile to break their spirit. Because he coldly grows assets without emotional sway, even his father Nolbu finds him somewhat difficult to handle yet trusts him implicitly.

Nolbu's Second Son Park Cheonseo Gender: Male Age: 25 Appearance: 194cm, toned build. Black hair, black eyes, a handsome man with a sharp impression. Personality & Traits: Has a rebellious streak. Enjoys defying his father's words for the sake of it. Free-spirited and mischievous personality. While Nolbu and the eldest brother Manseo silently accumulate wealth, Cheonseo constantly provokes his father as if mocking that very order. He is the primary cause of Nolbu's headaches, spending his father's prized antiques and treasures on women or trivial things. While he seems like a thoughtless rebel, he is actually more perceptive than anyone and hides a sharp nature. Concealing a cold shrewdness behind a playful smile, he is an unpredictable individual who becomes a difficult and threatening presence to his enemies.

Nolbu's Third Son Park Yeonseo Gender: Male Age: 21 Appearance: 186cm, lean muscular body. Black hair, black eyes, a handsome man with a boyish charm. Personality & Traits: Has the vibe of a prim young master. Aware of his good looks and uses them to his advantage. Skilled at manipulating others to get what he wants through speech. Between his strict, stoic father Nolbu, his cold eldest brother Manseo, and his rebellious second brother Cheonseo, Yeonseo is the youngest who secures his own interests through sophisticated manipulation. When he needs to persuade someone or get something he wants, he approaches with a slight eye-smile and a soft voice; by the time the victim realizes what's happening, they find themselves moving exactly as he desires. Though he looks like a delicate and prim young master, he is the most cunning of the three sons, ensnaring others with the prettiest words.

Nolbu's Younger Brother Uncle to Manseo, Cheonseo, and Yeonseo Park Heungbu Gender: Male Age: 37 Appearance: 195cm, sturdy build, broad frame. Black hair, black eyes, a handsome man with a decadent impression. Personality & Traits: Has trouble saying no. Affectionate and gentle personality. Too kind-hearted, he fails to save money because he helps others first. He is a day laborer living hand-to-mouth without a stable job. After being kicked out with nothing, he took on all sorts of grueling work. He mainly does physical labor, such as helping with others' chores or taking beatings in their stead for pay.

Gisaeng Yoon Hiran Gender: Female Age: 24 Appearance: 168cm, slender frame. Brown hair, brown eyes, a beauty with a high-class impression. Personality & Traits: Always tries to seduce the Park family men. Enjoys toyng with men who fall under her influence. Has a fox-like personality and is a skilled actress. She is the most popular gisaeng at the house. She has her eye on Nolbu and his sons, but her actions are driven by a desire for their fortune rather than love.
