Couple or Trouble (2006)
Korean title: 환상의 커플 (Hwan-sang-eui Keo-peul) a.k.a Fantastic Couple
What’s popping:
Oh Ji-ho’s (오지호) a hunk. Nevermind if he was an unknown actor for the first 7 years of his career. What matters is that we now know about him through this comedy where he stars opposite Han Ye-seul (한예슬).
Now that Hyunbin’s Snow Queen has ended its run, this drama has taken over the slot at 8TV. I only managed to watch an episode (last night) and it was pretty hilarious. I totally enjoyed the waltz Anna (Han) performed while in a drunken stupor.
And how about that Chul-su (Oh), huh? A small-time construction business owner who lives with his three nephews, the man lets Anna stay with him after realising she has developed amnesia! However, Anna, who has a diva attitude, proves to be one big pain in the @$ to Chul-su.
The plot:
Inspired by the 1987 American flick Overboard (starring Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell) , the drama depicts how amnesia changes the perspective of a spoilt, foul-mouthed American-bred heiress (Anna).
Watch it:
- Replaces Snow Queen
- 8TV (Astro channel 708) – free TV, yay!
- Every Monday to Friday
- 8.30pm to 9.30pm
- Dubbed in Mandarin with Bahasa Malaysia subtitles. Not my fav audio-subs combination, but Oh Ji-ho’s so fine, I might just tune in again tonight.
Hey hanie, yeah I missed a lot, huh? It’s already episode 9, another 7 more episodes to go, I presume 🙂
liz, u missed the earlier episodes which is much funnier..
& oh ji ho is sooo hot!!!
oh yeah.

I didn’t know this was based on “Overboard” That is one of my favorite movies ever! I’m curious about it now.
This was not in the league of my lovely samsoon or full house but definitely enjoyable!
Han Ye Seul is so pretty ; )
