Every version of My Sassy Girl — the films & series, compared across media.
My Sassy Girl is a story about an unlikely romantic connection — a chance encounter between an ordinary young man and an unconventional, trouble-prone woman who pulls him helplessly into her orbit. That core dynamic, part comedy and part tender romance, has found a home across different media and eras. The versions here range from a contemporary film to a period television reimagining, each built around an unassuming man drawn into the orbit of a spirited, difficult-to-ignore woman.
The story begins with the 2001 film My Sassy Girl, which follows a timid man who encounters a troublesome drunk woman on a subway platform. The 2017 television series My Sassy Girl later reimagined the premise in a Joseon Dynasty setting.
There are two versions here: the 2001 film My Sassy Girl, a contemporary romantic comedy, and the 2017 TV series My Sassy Girl, a period drama set during the Joseon Dynasty.
If you prefer a contemporary romantic comedy, the 2001 film My Sassy Girl is the place to start. If a period romance set in the Joseon Dynasty appeals to you, the 2017 TV series My Sassy Girl offers that take on the story.
