Cast edit
- Kang Hye-jung as Yoo Gun-hee
- Gun-hee, a 32-year-old career woman with no interest in marrying is the second of four daughters whose mother runs a boarding house. She's ambitious, selfish, competitive, independent, the epitome of the "gold miss" — single and lovin' it.[6]
- Lee Kyu-han as Lee Kang-jae
- A 32-year-old chaebol son to a food corporation president who happens to be one of Mom's lodgers. He's got some smarts and skills, but he refuses to do anything he doesn't want to do. A pampered rich boy, even if he really is a big softie underneath the sly exterior.[7]
- Cha Hwa-yeon as So Doo-ryun
- Matriarch and president of the small but prestigious Chinjung Kimchi company.
- Yoon Joo-sang as Lee Hak-goon
- CEO of food corporation Sangcharim, and father of Kang-jae.
- Lee Young-eun as Yoo Sun-hee
- Sun-hee, the sweet and maternal 33-year-old unni ("older sister") who raised her sisters after Dad died and Mom had to work to keep them afloat. Because of that, she has a bit of complex about not having lived her own life.
- Lee Min-woo as Seo Jang-won
- 35-year-old Jang-won, another boarder. Jang-won is a divorced stunt director, and painful memories are why he keeps love at arm's length.
- Kim Se-jung as Yoo Min-jung
- 24-year-old Min-jung, a fun-loving, vivacious material girl who loves designer clothes and men with money.
- Seo Jae-kyung as Kim Soon-dol
- A 30-year-old club-hopping, rap-loving city man whose looks totally contradict his personality. He likes Min-jung, but she's pretty picky about looks... until she finds out that he's the only son to a rich real estate businessman in the States.
- Park Min-ji as Yoo Min-ji
- The 21-year-old youngest daughter who's a cynical old soul, wise beyond her years. She doesn't have a romantic partner yet, but she does have a crush on Jang-won. Her interest in the stunt director stems from her own dream to be a film director. For that reason, she goes around with a camcorder in order to shoot a family movie and sticks her nose into everybody's business.

- Kim Ik-tae as Director Park
- Park Ga-won as Lee Ha-na
