The story takes place in South Korea in the 1960s. Xu Sanguan (played by Ha Jung-woo), a poor young man living in a certain village, falls in love with Xu Yulan (played by Ha Ji-won), the most beautiful girl in his village. It was rumored that Yulan was the girlfriend of the delinquent He Xiaoyong. However, SAN Guan, with her perseverance and the stubbornness of being naive and shameless, persuaded her future father-in-law and won her heart as she wished. Several years after their marriage, the couple had three smart and mischievous sons, Yile, Erle and Sanle, and their family life was full of flavor. But Yile became more and more like He Xiaoyong, which drew a lot of gossip from the villagers. This made Xu Sanguan extremely uneasy, and his feelings for Yulan and Yile seemed to have changed as a result. In that era when selling blood was all the rage, SAN Guan once traded his own blood for money. What he never expected was that in the rest of his life, he would have to sell his blood again and again for his family, pale and weak, with his life hanging by a thread... This film is adapted from Yu Hua's novel "The Story of Xu Sanguan Selling Blood".[Collapse]
