My New Sassy Girl (2016): Cast, Box Office & Plot

Gyun-woo [Cha Tae-hyun] cannot forget The Girl [Victoria Song] from My Sassy Girl (2001), who leaves him and seeks refuge as a Buddhist. He then reunites with his childhood sweetheart Sassy, a Chinese-born classmate who was often teased for her broken Korean, and the two manage to build a life together. They marry despite initial opposition from Gyun-woo’s mother [Song Ok-suk], a reminder that family opinions can weigh heavily on the path to happiness. Unbeknownst to Gyun-woo, his wife submits his job application to a telecommunications company in China, setting off a chain of events that will test their bond.
