Love to Hate You (Korean: 연애대전) is a 2023 South Korean romantic comedy television series written by Choi Soo-young, directed by Kim Jung-kwon, and starringKim Ok-vin,Teo Yoo,Kim Ji-hoon andGo Won-hee. It was released onNetflix on February 10, 2023.[2][3]
Yeo Mi-ran (Kim Ok-vin) is a free-spirited lawyer with a strong interest in social justice, especially when it relates to women. She enjoys sex, but has a low opinion of men and is not afraid to use her martial arts skills to beat up the bad guys. A change of circumstances forces her to take up a job in a big male-dominated law firm which specialises in sorting out celebrities' scandals. One of its clients is Nam Kang-ho (Teo Yoo), a big star of romantic movies who has an aversion to women. Mi-ran overhears Kang-ho making angry misogynistic remarks about women labeling them as nothing more than gold diggers and she adds him to her personal database of jerks. She has a hunch that he's up to no good with a schoolgirl and schemes to get close to him to find evidence exposing his nefarious deeds and bring him down...
