One day, she sees a track and field competition on TV, and becomes attracted to one of the high jump competitors, Kang Tae Joon (Min Ho).

Not a fan of Min Ho at all but will give it a shot. The Japanese version had its funny moments but total madness most of the time for me
Expecting something better from the Korean side though.
