Name That Drama: Wolves and bad assassins
by javabeans
Can you name these dramas? As always, feel free to email us your questions and requests for future Name That Drama installments.
- It’s always about a boy, isn’t it? Do you know the drama Ashley describes?
I’m pretty sure this is a movie (most likely Korean but not completely sure). It’s about a model that works really hard to stay skinny and hates fat people. She has a brother that she always bags on for eating too much. Then she falls for a guy that she thinks likes bigger girls so she eats like crazy and gains weight so he’ll like her. Thanks!
- Zinni has a picture to help jog memories; hopefully it triggers a title for somebody?
Hi, I’ve been looking for this drama but the only thing I remember is that there’s this girl who has thick eyebrows and wears glasses, and has freckles all over her face and bad hair. I think the drama is like the Korean version of Betty La Fea where the protagonist is nothing but ugly.
I was actually reminded of that drama when I saw So Yi-hyun’s photo. They posed the same way; I even thought it was her. Lol. I also think it was aired early to mid 2000s.
I hope you can help me. Thank you very much!
- Joyce’s drama sounds like a doozy. Totally crazy, but in an interesting way!
I watched a drama back in 2002-2003 where there was a girl that was cursed which made her turn into a wolf every night. She doesn’t tell the love interest in the beginning and she also has a friend that’s apparently a plant of some sort. He/she/it would break off his/her/its fingers and apparently it can be a cure of something or at least be used as medicine. The clothing of the drama was back in the day, and the female protagonist was always in a white dress. Thank you!!
- Wendy has a move she’d like to rewatch:
Here’s a movie I wanted to watch again hopefully if someone can tell me the title. The only thing I can remember is that the guy is a criminal and he pointed his gun to a girl in the bus to lean on him to make it look like they’re couple so that he can escape police inspection of the bus. Thank you so much!
- Vivian’s question is also about a movie:
There’s a movie that’s been on my mind for a while now. It’s about a girl who goes suicidal after her husband leaves her. It just so happens an assassin is hired to kill her ex, but mistakenly almost kills her. She doesn’t mind because she would rather die than live without her ex, so she tries to hire the assassin to kill her. He refuses to and they end up falling in love. What’s the name of the movie?
- Know what drama Apple’s thinking of?
I remember watching this drama a couple years ago. In the beginning of the series there was a young woman who was pregnant. I’m not sure whether she might have been a surrogate mother or not. During her pregnancy she called her baby “bluebell.” But when she gave birth, her baby was taken away or passed away and the mother was upset. I thought the drama was Loving You A Thousand Times but I wasn’t able to find the “bluebell scene” so I don’t think that is the drama. Thanks for your help!
Thanks for playing, everyone — till next time!

Yup, definitely Plump Revolution. I just watched it a few weeks ago. Slow-going movie, but the ending was better than I expected.

#4 does sound like Running Out of Time by Andy Lau, Sean Lau, and the girl was Yoyo Mung. It's a great movie.

I don't think it's Nine Tailed Fox with Kim Tae Hee. I don't remember her turning into a wolf every night. Then again, I could be wrong. It's been quite some time since I've watched it. (It seems ages ago actually! Hee)

Ok, about 3#
Could it be My girlfriend is a nine tailed gumih With Lee seung gi and shin mina ?!
The female lead did wear a white dress for most of the series, and had the vet/assassin/who loved her in another live.
but i don't remember anyone breaking his/her/its finger to heal anyone.

It's not 'My Girlfriend is a Gumiho.' The hero knew she was a nine-tailed fox from the beginning, since she came after him right after he released her and threatened to eat him. She also didn't have a sidekick and the assassin recognized her immediately so her identity was never a secret.
I would be really interested to know what this show is...
