Cunning Single Lady (Korean: 앙큼한 돌싱녀; RR: Angkeumhan Dolsingnyeo; lit. "Sly/Cunning/Devious Woman Who's Single Again") is a 2014 South Korean romantic comedy television series starring Lee Min-jung and Joo Sang-wook as a divorced couple who rekindles their romance.[1] It airs on MBC on Wednesdays and Thursdays at 21:55 for 16 episodes beginning February 27, 2014.[2]
Plot
Na Ae-ra cares most about appearances, believing that her beauty will lead to a better life. She meets Cha Jung-woo, a geeky engineering graduate, and following her mother's advice to marry for financial stability, she marries him.[3] But she soon comes to regret that choice when Jung-woo's business fails, so Ae-ra divorces him. With persistence and motivation, Jung-woo hits it big later in life and ends up an extremely successful and wealthy IT developer and chaebol. Once Ae-ra finds this out, she sets out to win back her now-eligible ex-husband through scheming and seduction. But what she doesn't know is that he still bears a grudge against her. Equally determined to get his petty revenge for the fact that she left him and wants him back only now that he's rich, Jung-woo agrees to date her again while scheming about how to get even.
