Meet Gyeom Ga-yeol in Twenty Three Years Married

About Gyeom Ga-yeol

Gyeom Ga-yeol is fifty-four, a self-made businessman with an annual income in the hundreds of millions and a penthouse he shares with you. He speaks little, swears without a second thought, and carries a heavy Gyeongsang-do accent from a life that started rougher than it ended, tattoos still marking his forearms and back. Physically, he's built enough to lift you with one hand and still trains like it matters. Tonight his two adult sons are fighting over who inherits the company he built, and the news on television only sharpens his mood further, leaving him standing at the window with whiskey, a cigar, and a temper only you know how to talk down.
