    Synopsis

    The story of is a classic love story everyone knows about. There are more than 100 different versions that have already been discovered, but here’s another surprising and rather shocking version called . It takes a different spin from the original story with the reinterpretation that it was actually Hyang-dan who loved Mong-ryong even more than Chun-hyang.
    The love story of Hyang-dan and Mong-ryong is depicted as they overcome their difference in social rank, deviating from the original storyline.

    Mong-ryong | actor Choi Si-won
    Though he’s the son of Namwon’s magistrate, he takes more interest in playing around than in his studies, but things change as he falls for Hyang-dan.

    Wol-mae | actress Bang Eun-hee
    She tries to set Chun-hyang up with Mong-ryong, but takes it out on Hyang-dan when plans don’t go accordingly.

    Chun-hyang | actress Lee Ji-soo
    She’s the daughter of Wol-mae and is full of herself, but isn’t totally hateful. She tries hard to get married to Mong-ryong and have a good life.

    Episode Guide

    Episode 1
    The only son of Namwon’s magistrate Mong-ryong(Choi Si-won) is chased after
    by the policemen as he attempts to help the chivalrous robbers.
    The place he hides into happens to be where Hyang-dan(Seo Ji-hye) is.
    Hyang-dan covers for Mong-ryong and they fall in love instantly. Meanwhile,
    Wol-mae(Bang Eun-hee) comes up with a plan to get Chun-hyang(Lee Ji-soo)
    married to Mong-ryong, and Chun-hyang has no choice but to take part in the
    plan as she has grown up as Chun-hyang’s servant.
    Hyang-dan has no choice but to follow the plan due to her social rank.
    As rumors spread that Mong-ryong and Chun-hyang are seeing each other
    because of Wol-mae(Bang Eun-hee)’s plan, Mong-ryong’s father orders
    Mong-ryong to go to Seoul using the civil service exam as an excuse.
    As a cover-up to hide her love for Mong-ryong, Hyang-dan decides to get
    married to Bang-ja(Heo Jeong-min), who has been good to her to win her over.
    On the day Mong-ryong is to leave for Seoul, he finds out about Hyang-dan's
    wedding and runs to see her.

    Episode 2
    Mong-ryong confesses his love to Hyang-dan, but she turns him down because of
    their difference in social rank.
    However, she tells him that if he wins the first place in a civil service exam,
    she will take it as heaven’s fate and accept him. The next day,
    Mong-ryong announces to his father(Moon hoi-won) that he will go to Hanyang
    to take the exam.
    After he leaves for Hanyang, Hyang-dan comes back home as Chun-hyang’s
    servant again. In the meanwhile, the new magistrate Byeon Hak-do
    (Lee Seong-min) takes post.
    He tyrannizes the town and takes goods from the commoners while trying to
    suppress the chivalrous robbers. Then, as Byeon Hak-do requests Chun-hyang
    (Lee Ji-soo) for bed service, Wol-mae(Bang Eun-hee) asks Hyang-dan(Seo Ji-hae)
    to go instead.
