Synopsis
‘Sassy Girl, Chun-hyang’ is the 2005 interpretation of the
‘Legend of Chun-hyang.’ The story begins when Lee Mong-ryong is
transferred from Seoul to a high school in Namwon, North Jeolla
Province. Chun-hyang does her best to help Mong-ryong, her first
love and the son of the Namwon Police Station chief, to enter a
prestigious university. However, after meeting with Mong-ryong’s
first love, Chae-rin, Mong-ryong’s love toward Chun-hyang is
shattered, although Chun-hyang’s love remains unwavering.
One day, Byeon Hak-do, CEO of a famous entertainment company,
appears in her life. He exudes confidence that he can make any
woman fall for him. But as Chun-hyang shows no interest in him,
his self-esteem is damaged profoundly. Byeon Hak-do is determined
to make her love him.
The production team of this drama says they wanted to present
a whole new image of Chun-hyang in line with modern times as she
is an attractive female character who showed courage in choosing
her love in the Joseon period, when Confucianism was a dominant
value.
This fusion-style drama makes various new attempts in terms of
genre, such as mixing rap with Pansori (Korean opera) for
background music.
