"MONEY WAR" begins cycle of revenge



They say that money is the root of all evil, but what if a person willingly chose money to be the means for vengeance? And can money pave the way for two people to find love? These questions and more shall be explored as GMA Network launches the Koreanovela titled Money War starting December 8.


Beginning Monday on GMA Telebabad, Money War is a story about revenge, love and money starring Korea's heartthrob Park Shin Yang and multi-talented actress Park Jin Hee of Come Back, Soon Ae. Park Shin Yang is Noah, a man who seemingly has everything: a good job, a good girlfriend, and a good family. Life was bright and complete, until his sister's most-awaited wedding day. Loan sharks crash the ceremonies to collect a very large debt from his father that no one knew he incurred.


In a sudden turn of events, his family's house is repossessed, he gets fired from his job, and his mother collapses from the strain. His father runs away and kills himself.

Destitute and depressed, Noah goes to his rich girlfriend Charmaine (actress Kim Jeong Hwa, from the series Sweet Love) and asks for help. Charmaine, despite their difference in status, is more than ready to help him out. The problem is that Charmaine's grandmother never really liked Noah and had been continuously vouching for her secretive right-hand man named Wilson (Shin Dong Wook). Using Noah's complicated situation against him, Charmaine's grandmother strikes him a deal: she will give him the money that he needs, in exchange of leaving Charmaine.

After losing his home, his job and his father, Noah accepts the offer and loses his girlfriend. Finally reaching his lowest point, the despondent man swears revenge on all those who had wronged him and his family by becoming one of them--infiltrating the city's underside, and becoming a loan shark himself.

He inflicts his broken fate to others by robbing them of their happiness. Here, he mimics what happened to his family by crashing the wedding of a woman named Julie (Park Jin Hi) to collect the debt her father had. In a mirroring of events, Julie's wedding does not push through as well and she swears revenge on Noah, the loan shark who ruined her happiness.
