The Taste of Money (2012)

Description:

The Taste of Money is a gripping drama that explores the dark side of Korea's wealthiest Chaebul family, driven by desire, love, hatred, sex, and murder. For a decade, YoungJak (Kim KangWoo) has served CEO Yoon (Baek YoonSik), a man who married the powerful Baek GeumOk (Youn YuhJung) solely for her immense fortune. Suffering from years of humiliation, CEO Yoon decides to escape his loveless marriage to pursue a new life with their Filipino housemaid, Eva (Maui Taylor). While GeumOk schemes to bring her husband back, her daughter NaMi (Kim HyoJin) stands as the only family member who opposes their corrupt lifestyle, unlike her brother Cheol (On JooWan). After Yoon departs, YoungJak is thrust into the center of the family's endless power dynamics. Inheriting Yoon's former role, YoungJak quickly finds himself seduced and addicted to the toxic taste of money.
