Strong Girl Bong Soon Quick Recap
Strong Girl Bong Soon highlights the tale of Do Bong Soon (Park Bo Young), who has inherited a superhuman strength that is passed on from her maternal ancestors. Her incredible strength cannot be used for the personal interest though, as it would cause an inevitable misfortune for her.
An incident involving saving a bus driver bullied by thugs results in her crossing paths with Ahn Min Hyuk (Park Hyung Sik), a pompous CEO of a gaming company who in turn offers her a job to become his bodyguard after realizing her ability. Bong Soon agrees after considering the huge amount of money tied up with the job offer.
The strange working agreement opens a connection for them, but he must wait for her to end a long-running one-sided love with her policeman friend, In Guk Doo (Ji Soo).
