Part I

Seol Gong Chan (Lee Dong Wook) is the only grandson of one the owner of Avenue's Hotel which is the one of the top hotels in Korea. His grandpa has been searching for his long-lost younger cousin for so long. Joo Yoo Rin (Lee Da Hae) is a tour guide in Jeju Island whose father is the absolutely bum and always causes her trouble throughout her life. Because moving from country to country a lot she can speak many languages as well as being a liar expert.

Seo Jung Woo (Lee Joon Ki) is Seol Gong Chan's best friend and also an heir of another owner of Avenue's Hotel. You can probably tell by now that he will be Yoo Rin one side love. Kim Seo Hyun (Park Si Yeon) is Gong Chan's ex-girlfriend who left him for pursuing her professional tennis career.

Yoo Rin and Gong Chan first meet on the plane from Jeju Island while Yoo Rin tries to delay the flight for her friend’s tour group and Gong Chan is the only person on the plane who doesn't fall for her lie. The story starts out pretty funny. Later on, they meet again on the Jeju Island with an incidence while Yoo Rin is trying to run away from her dad's debtor. Yoo Rin helps Gong Chan out when he needs a Chinese translator. After that the incidents between them get even more comical. After being the translator, Yoo Rin finds out that Gong Chan’s vacation house is un-occupied, so she’s secretly staying there because she can’t go back home due to her dad’s debtors. She also steals oranges from Gong Chan’s fruityard and sells them to make quick money. Of course, a little later one, she has been caught by Gong Chan and it is so hilarious.

Gong Chan has been working on finding his long-lost cousin in order to fulfill his dying grandfather’s wish. This is how the mess is actually started. After failing so many time, and his grandfather seems to get worst, he decides to persuade Yoo Rin, who is an expert in lying and also resemble with his late aunt (his secretary points this out), to work for him by pretending to be his younger cousin once, so his grandfather can die peacefully. With her bad circumstances, Yoo Rin accepts the offer.

Things don’t go as a plan; Yoo Rin’s appearance seems to help Gong Chan’s grandfather’s condition to improve significantly. Yoo Rin ends up has to move in with Gong Chan’s family and they have to act as cousin. I forgot to mention that Yoo Rin and Jung Woo accidentally met in Jeju and he is very interested in her.

The first night she moves in (see above video), Yoo Rin has an accident in the bathroom (super funny). You can watch the below clip.

What make this series even funnier is the flashing thoughts. Especially from the leading charactors.

They're so many funny moments in this series. Lee Da Hae is super cute and funny, I saw her a little bit before in Green Rose (I couldn't get to finish watching this series, it was way too draggy for me to finish it) and really surprise to see her being this funny in My Girl. This is also the first time I watched Lee Dong Wook, and he is super cute in here, and the chemistry between them is so great. I will try to write more about My Girl and hope to finish it soon.
