Minha Garota

My Girl is a cute Korean TV drama that never strays from the usual in these productions...but like many of them has moments of true feeling, both of joy and pathos.

The story concerns a young hotel magnate whose grandfather lingers near death, depressed of having never met his granddaughter, having dismissed her mother from his life years earlier. The manager, unable to locate his long lost sister, instead hires a young con artist who has tried to scam him to act as his sister for the benefit of his grandfather.

Romantic and comic entanglements ensue between the two as their plan takes hold all to well. But what will happen when the grandfather makes a miraculous recovery and the two are forced to act as brother and sister, perhaps forever?

The 16 part drama is light and fluffy, with much humor, but also an edge of sadness and repressed passion. The performances and direction are top notch, with several poignant and heartfelt moments spread throughout.

A treat for fans of romantic Korean drama with large helpings of comedy.

It was funny and entertaining even now in 2020. All actors were great. It was the first time that I saw Lee Joongi and I fall in love with him.

Love at first sight.

I fell in love with this the first time I saw this 12 years ago. Actors and actresses perfectly fit their role.

I haven't seen any K-Drama with the same level of romantic/excitement.

Lee Da Hae and Lee Dong Wook has strong chemistry on/off screen.

So great and gives me nostalgic feelings Lee Joon Gi was so pretty here even prettier than co-actresses

This series is well written and a laugh almost every other scene. For 2005 the humor is not dated and is clever and funny even by 2022 standards. The Hong sisters best work. More sophisticated than "You're Beautiful".

This is a well cast show with lots of chemistry and well cast leads. A young Lee Dong Wook shows good comedic and romantic acting skills. Lee Joon Gi with his unique looks is a watchable secondary lead. Lee Da Hae gives a spirited and animated performance as the charming con artist. She could have been annoying after a while but instead she is endearing and watchable. The last couple of episodes have a dragged out unnecessary obstacle. But there is a satisfactory conclusion.

A must watch for K drama fans.
