After watching “Full House” a 2004 Korean drama, the drama attempts to answer the question of whether two people can be in love only on paper.
The synopsis of this drama begins with Han Ji-Eun who lives in a house called Full House that was built by her father and she inherited from her late parents. Han Ji-Eun is an aspiring script writer. One day, her two best friends trick her in believing that she had won a free holiday to Shanghai. Han Ji-Eun accepts the free holiday and leaves, while her two friends sell her house due to money reasons and one of her friend is expecting a baby. While Han Ji-Eun is on the plane she meets Lee Young-Jae who is a famous actor. During her vacation, small problems started to immerge. When she returns, she discovered that her house had been sold to Lee Young-Jae.
Both characters do not get along with each other; Han Ji-Eun is a messy character while Lee Young-Jae is a bad tempered and cleanliness person. However, both characters agreed to live with each other. At first Han Ji-Eun agreed to work as Lee Young-Jae’s maid in order to get her house back, but later they get married because Lee Young-Jae wanted to make the love of his life jealous; Kang Hye-Won, a fashion designer that designs most of Lee Young-Jae’s clothes. Lee Young-Jae and Han Ji-Eun set up a contract stating that they will be married for 6 months and after that the house will be given back to Han Ji-Eun. During the 6 months together, the two characters start to develop feelings for one another. However, with Lee Young-Jae’s bad temper, a rift starts to immerge between the two couples with Yoo Min-Hyuk, a director of a large media company. When Kang Hye-Won sees Lee Young-Jae and Han Ji-Eun getting close she starts to feel jealous. Eventually, Lee Young-Jae and Han Ji-Eun get a divorce and he moves away.
After awhile, Lee Young-Jae returns and finds out that Han Ji-Eun hasn’t married yet and he knows that he has fallen for her – and she with him. He tries all he can to get her back. He proposes to her, but this time for the right reasons and finally, they get a second chance at marriage.
So it seems that two people, who lives in to opposite worlds, can fall in love with one another. To me, what makes them fall in love with one another is the fact that the time they spend together and discovering a little more about the other person and adapting to their habits which causes the two to fall in love. If it wasn’t for the first contract that they set up, then the two characters would not fallen in love with one another. Also, it wasn’t for Han Ji-Eun’s two best friends for selling the house and giving her the free vacation then meeting Lee Young-Jae would never happened and Han Ji-Eun would have never had the opportunity to kick-start her written scripts.
