Hello, Miss - 헬로! 애기씨


A Spring drama - love the colours , love the weather, but the drama? Errr....hmmmm....it's like watching a Cross between My Girl and My Little Bride 18.

2 reasons why I watched this drama:

1. Lee Ji Hoon
2. Lee Ji Hoon

After that, everything else didn't matter. But I must say, that I was kinda disappointed with Lee Ji Hoon's exposure in this drama. There's not much opportunity for him to shine, really. What with all those slapstick lines.

But, Watched, I did.

The gist:

Lee Su Ha, the Lee Jae Ahn Clan's 38th Generation granddaughter of the last surviving Clan leader of Hwa An Dang, a traditional village head-sort-of household. Broke, alone and desperate to save the household, she was forced to seek help in the form of a job, a scheme, a loan - whatever she could take/do to raise the 5 million wons to save Hwa An Dong.

Along came Hwang Dong Gyu, the eldest grandson of the TOP tycoon group chairman. By the way, the Chairman actually made it good after stealing a cow and a sack of rice from Hwa An Dang where he was employed as a servant 50 years before. With a sense of guilt and shame , as well as greed to make Hwa An Dang his own, the Chairman challenged both Dong Gyu and his other grandson Chan Ming, to win Su Ha's heart. In this way, forming a conglomerate of Tradition and Wealth.

What followed was slapstick attempts at winning the girl's heart, with a couple of naughty girls trying to ruin the pursuits of love and business.

I didn't quite enjoy this, unfortunately because I did not see much meat in the storyline.

Perhaps after Coffee Prince and Thank You, all other dramas would have to work REALLY hard to satisfy me.
