Yoo-na's Street (Hangul: 유나의 거리; RR: Yuna-eui Geoli) is a 2014 South Korean television series starring Kim Ok-bin and Lee Hee-joon.[1] It aired on jTBC from May 19 to November 11, 2014 on Mondays and Tuesdays at 21:50 for 50 episodes.[2][3][4]
Plot
Kang Yoo-na is the daughter of a pickpocket who learned the trade from her father and is already famous in her own right (with a prolific rap sheet of her very own, and three prior convictions). After being released from prison, she works as a part-time barista at a friend's café, but sometimes goes back to her old habits. Yoo-na shares a multiplex house with a rag-tag group of personalities, including an ex-gangster, a call girl, and a day laborer. They may not have much to boast about, but they are bright and warm people who live their daily lives to the fullest.
Things take an interesting turn when they get a new neighbor — unemployed but seemingly pure-hearted Kim Chang-man moves in. Chang-man is an aspiring social worker, and as Yoo-na gets to know the salt-of-the-earth good boy next door, he starts to change them all for the better. Residing together under the same roof, they come to understand each other and mend their past wounds.
