Matsushima Kenichiro is basically a straight guy because he hates dishonesty. He is an employee at a medium-sized building firm and works in design. However, he is inept when it comes to love. Kenichiro's destiny changes after he meets Kurita Narumi, an audacious, self-centred impish female. He becomes serious about leading her back to the right path which she finds interesting. While getting pushed around by Narumi, who is the exact opposite of him, Kenichiro learns about her way of doing things and way of life. He is stimulated by her and gradually gets attracted to her... Before long, he starts to look at a new self and at the things he had believed were correct, maturing into a more upright man.

At that point, the president is informed that he is trying to bribe a former member of parliament to win the final presentation. Kenichiro, who is not convinced by the dirty road, protests the president. When the president fires Kenichiro, he orders a former member of parliament to bring money.

And finally, the day of the promise to give money to a former member of parliament. Kenichiro makes a decision and heads for Cheong Wa Dae.
