A debt collection lawyer who believes money can solve anything is about to inherit a rundown building in the countryside and a market full of people who disagree. Sigor Amour has confirmed its full cast, with Kim Ji-hoon and Park Ju-hyun leading a ten-strong lineup into a romantic comedy about livelihoods, pride and second chances.

TV CHOSUN announced the complete lineup on November 9, with the cast and character details carried by Ilgan Sports. Jo Jae-yoon, Kwak Si-yang, Kim Ye-won, Park Sang-myun, Im Won-hee, Yoon Bok-in, So Hee-jung and Park Joon-myun join the two leads in the new Monday-Tuesday miniseries.

The drama follows a lawyer who knew only money as he inherits an old building in a rural village and ends up, almost by accident, becoming the head of the local prosperity association. Pushed into solving the everyday problems of Myeongsan Market, he slowly grows into a genuine human being across a romance-filled countryside life.

Kim Ji-hoon plays Ki Ho-tae, a debt collection lawyer who has lived by the belief that money can do anything. An unexpected turn brings him to Myeongsan Market and becomes the turning point of his life, in a role that moves between a prickly edge and warm-hearted humanity.

Park Ju-hyun plays Hong Mi-jin, the acting owner of Jinmi Butcher Shop in Myeongsan Market, a resourceful woman with a powerful will to survive. Hong Mi-jin cannot stand injustice, so she clashes again and again with the money-first Ki Ho-tae, and their constant war of nerves builds into a bickering romance.

Jo Jae-yoon plays Kim Il-bong, the chairman of the merchants' association who holds immense power in Myeongsan Market. Described as the drama's ultimate villain, Kim Il-bong faces off sharply against Ki Ho-tae and carries much of the story's tension.

Kwak Si-yang plays Kwak Jung-beom, a Harvard-educated architecture and landscaping expert and an ambitious elite from a wealthy family. Kwak Jung-beom is Hong Mi-jin's college senior, and he forms a tense rivalry with Ki Ho-tae over her.

Kim Ye-won plays Bae Ju-mi, a Pilates instructor known as the market's official troublemaker. Bae Ju-mi takes a particular interest in Ki Ho-tae, adding unpredictable, quirky and bubbly energy to the market's daily life.

The market itself is filled out by a line of veteran merchants, each with a shop and a life of their own. Park Sang-myun plays Yoo Jung-deuk, the CEO of Jeil Produce, Im Won-hee plays Jo Deok-byung, the owner of King's Rice Cake Shop, Yoon Bok-in plays Noh Sun-deok, the owner of Rose Chicken, So Hee-jung plays Lee Sook-ja of the Palpal Health Center, and Park Joon-myun plays Jung Eun-sil, a vegetable street vendor.

Kim Jung-min, whose past work includes Grand Prince, The Gunman in Joseon and The Princess' Man, directs the series. Jo Won-gi and Park Chi-hyung of Scene Number One Creative write it, and TME Group and Y Unit produce, with the production team promising a warm, close-to-life story built on the cast's chemistry.
