Korean Drama- My Girl =>

Introduction
The story introduces us to our female lead, Joo Yoorin, a tour guide on Cheju Island. Thanks to her good-for-nothing father, a cheat and gambler, they’re always on the run, traveling from one country to another. Her greatest asset perhaps, is her ability to speak fluent Korean, Japanese and Mandarin apart from her skills in cheating. Although her life is a complete mess and full of lies, this doesn’t stop her from realizing her dream of owning a perfect home and live happily with her father. Indeed, fate has other arrangements for her. One day, an offer comes from a wealthy guy which she can’t resist in times of circumstances. Our male lead, Seol Gongchan, the heir to the L’Avenuel Hotel, hires her to pretend to be the long-lost granddaughter which his grandfather had been searching for years. Slowly, this pair gets attracted to one another…
Lee Da Hae as Joo Yoorin She is the cute, lovable, cheerful and witty cheat. On Cheju Island, she works as a tour guide, entertaining tourists with the famous spots on the island. When her father ran away and left a huge sum of debt for her to settle, she was forced into a lie which unites her with the love of her life. Engaging in a lie, she’s very aware of her own status and never attempts to step far beyond that. Truly, her inner strength and beauty captures the heart and attention of two men. At last, her unconditional love and sacrifice for Gongchan really earns it.
One word to describe her: gorgeous! I started noticing her from ‘Green Rose’. For me, her performance in the series is average. But she really redeems herself here. She manages to make me laugh and cry as well. I’m really looking forward to her next work. Still, I think Kim Sun Ah did the best comical stunts in “My Name is Kim Sam Soon”.
Lee Dong Wook as Seol Gongchan He is the rich, smart, caring, responsible and filial grandson. He is trusted with the responsibilities of finding his long-lost cousin but to no avail. When his grandfather fell extremely ill, he was left with no choice but to seek help from Yoorin, who looks like his aunt. As he slowly falls for her, he starts to change from his usual calm self into a man who’s willing to give up everything in pursuit for his love.
This is the first time I saw this guy acts. His previous productions were never broadcasted in Malaysia so I hardly know if he exists. At first, I was wondering if this guy would match the lovable Lee Da Hae. But as the story progresses, he expresses his charm and I’m convinced that they’re the match made in heaven.
Lee Jun Ki as Seo Jung Woong He is the rich playboy who constantly flirts around with women. However, he develops true feelings only for dear Yoorin and stands by her side all the time, waiting for her to just take a glimpse of him. Certainly, he would do anything to win her heart but this girl just doesn’t belong to him.
This guy creates a stir in Korea after his movie ‘The King and I’ swept the box office. Believe me; this guy looks much prettier than the girls. I’m quite disappointed because the script doesn’t allocate much development for him. Poor man. All he can do is just mourn over his lost love.
Park Si Yeon as Kim Seo Hyun She is the girl who left Gongchan for two years in order to pursue her dream as a tennis star. Not able to let him go, she returns for him. Despite all her effort to win his heart, she still loses him to Yoorin.
What can I say about this girl? As a protagonist, I think she can do a lot more. Perhaps, what she done is enough to break up the couple for two years.
Byun Hee Bong as Chairman Seol Woong He is the ill grandfather who seeks his long-lost granddaughter. After chasing away his daughter decades ago, he regretted his action but, too late as she had passed away due to an earthquake. To make amendments, he decided to take care of his granddaughter. He is truly happy with the appearance of Yoorin and heals rapidly. But when he learns of the lie, he’s unable to forgive her and breaks up the pair!
I first saw this old man in “There’s Something About 1%”. I think he is really funny. Do watch out for his eccentric expressions.
