A Korean Drama that ran in 2010, the story of Oh! My Lady revolves around a spunky 35-year-old divorced housewife, Yoon Gae Hwa. She takes on the job of managing prickly top star Sung Min Woo (Choi Si Won) to earn enough money to regain custody of her child from her ex-husband. Romantic hijinks and hilarity ensue when they find themselves in an awkward living situation as Min Woo pays Gae Hwa to take care of his daughter, Ye Eun. The series explores the idea of Second Love.


The series includes the following tropes:

  • Giftedly Bad: Sung Min Woo can't act himself out of a paper bag.
  • Leaning on the Fourth Wall: Episode 4, Gae Hwa: "This is not a Korean TV Drama!"
  • Mr. Fanservice: There're many scenes with Min Woo shirtless.
  • Orbital Kiss: An interesting take, as the camera pulls back and shows another camera crew circling the actors as they kiss on set.
  • Orbital Shot: When Ye Eun gets lost at the mall.
  • Product Displacement: The vehicle logos are duct taped. Also the beer glasses.
  • Shirtless Scene: Sung Min Woo, and how. Admittedly, this is the reason why he's a popular actor, who can't act.
  • Spit Take: Gae Hwa, when Min Woo first proposes she be "a mother" to Ye Eun. With wine. All over Min Woo.
