Plot
"Becoming a Billionaire" introduces ways to become rich and through the process contains about 80 big and small secrets to success...
Oh Tae-Bong (played by Ji Hyun-Wu) lives in a small room on the roof and studies by himself to become the successor of a chaebol (business conglomerate). He believes that he is the heir to a chaebol and his rich father hid him away in his small room. Tae-Bong turned down an offer to work at a big company, while he got a job as a houseman in a hotel.
Lee Sin-Me (played by Lee Bo-Young) is a real successor to a chaebol, but still uses sample cosmetics and drinks cheap coffee from vending machines. She is driven to receive recognition from her father, who thinks woman should stay at home. She then meets Tae-Bong.
Meanwhile, Bu Tae-Hee (played by Lee Si-Young) has the perfect body and face and is a successor to a chaebol family. Chu Woon-Seok (Nam Gung-Min]) is the perfect prince of the high class.

Hey! I'm a teenager who watches Korean dramas and I enjoyed this drama a lot!
Everyone acted outstanding and I was satisfied with the ending. It was proper for the plot.
I hope everyone in the cast will have a prosperous career and do more dramas in the future.
