Plot

Two women became widows on the same day, same hour.

Ha Yoon-jung becomes the matriarch of her husband's family, supporting them because she feels guilty about her husband's disappearance. Oh Dong-ja, Yoon-jung's sister-in-law, has been living with Yoon-jung's help as well. After the terrifying day when they lost their husbands, the two women have been living as each other's friend and companion.

However, they become implacable enemies because of their children, since their daughters are rivals in love. And then Yoon-jung's husband, whom everyone assumed was dead, suddenly appears before them as the future father-in-law of Dong-ja's son.
