Penny Pincher Kdrama

[Akinlolu Watters]

Penny Pinchers is a romantic comedy that follows the story of two individuals who are complete financial opposites. Ji-Woong (Song Joong-Ki) is a lazy and unemployed deadbeat who is months behind on his rent and can barely scrounge up enough pocket change to survive. Hong-Sil (Han Ye-Seul) is the epitome of the titular penny pincher. She routinely rummages through junk in search of valuables and has no qualms with taking up morally shady odd jobs in order to make some money. Near the start of the film, Ji-Woong gets evicted from his apartment, and for her own reasons, Hong-Sil decides to take him under her wing, promising him $5000 if he follows her directions for the next couple of months.
