The roads are no longer lined with fragrant flowers, replaced instead by rough workers and the flying cotton of textile workshops. Along with the discomfort of the new environment, Margaret faces the domineering nature and harshness of factory owner John Thornton (Richard Armitage), leading to a very poor first impression of him. As Margaret's life in Milton deepens, she gradually comes to recognize the tenderness and suffering behind the workers' rough exteriors, firmly standing by their side. In contrast, the employer Thornton falls in love with Margaret at first sight, but his inability to express himself seems to push her further away. The two are like the South and the North, entirely opposite yet closely connected...
