"High Kick without Hesitation", "Unstoppable High Kick", or "Smooth High Kick" was a popular South Korean situation comedy revolving around the life of the [[BadassFamily Lee family]], taking place in Seoul. The main characters are Lee Yoon Ho, a {{Delinquent}} BadassBiker known for his [[TitleDrop high kick]] and Lee Min Ho, who [[TheSmartGuy enjoys spending time on scale models and blogs]], are brothers born a year apart but attending the same class at school. These two portray [[SiblingYinYang completely opposite]] Korean teenage characters in a comical way.
And of course, there’s the rest of the family, including:
* Their father, [[GentleGiant Jung Joon Ha]], a full-time stock investor since being laid off from work, nevertheless optimistic and reckless;
* Their mother, [[TheWomanWearingTheQueenlyMask Park Hae Mi]], a doctor specializing in Oriental medicine and [[SmugSuper always overly confident]];
* Their grandfather [[TheNeidermeyer Lee Soon Jae]], who loves money more than anything else in the world,
* Their grandmother [[NeverMessWithGranny Na Moon Hee]], who is always defeated by her daughter-in-law in ongoing status quarrels.
* Their uncle, [[TallDarkAndSnarky Lee Min Yong]], is a 27-year-old single dad. After going through a premature marriage and early divorce, he enjoys his life back in the dating scene with his half-single and half-married status, while continuing to encounter emotionally-involved moments with his ex-wife, Shin Ji, at times.
''High Kick!'' is a situation comedy, which portrays the everyday lives of the main characters colliding with each other in a comical way. However, at a certain point, the surprising mysteries of their seemingly normal surrounding characters begin to unravel one by one.
The English title of the show, "High Kick!", has several implications, one of which is the aforementioned oft-depicted high kicks of Yoon-ho.
