Description:

Unkind Women is a gripping family drama centering on four hot-blooded women across three generations living under one roof. The matriarch, Kang Sunok, is a renowned cooking teacher who raised her daughters alone. Her eldest, Hyeonjeong, is a famous news presenter facing career hurdles, while her second daughter, Hyunsuk, struggles financially after a troubled past. Hyunsuk’s daughter, Jeong Mari, is an academic achiever who obtained her PhD before turning thirty. Their lives are shaken up by the arrival of two influential figures. Jang Moran, a wealthy woman harboring a thirty-year secret, becomes deeply involved with the family. Meanwhile, Na Hyeonae, the tyrannical former teacher who ruined Hyunsuk’s youth, reappears, sparking a fierce quest for an apology. Supported quietly by Hyunsuk's estranged husband and three important men sharing the family name Lee, these strong-willed women must confront past traumas, seek justice, and find healing together. This heartwarming yet dramatic series beautifully explores resilience and family bonds.
