Plot

29 old Hwang Dae-woo (Park Yong-woo) is a successful university lecturer of English, yet due to his awkward and shy nature around women, has yet to engage in any romantic relationship. When art major student Lee Mi-na (Choi Kang-hee) suddenly moves into his apartment complex, Dae-woo asks her out, and finds himself in an almost-too-good-to-be-true relationship. Yet, Mi-na seems to be hiding something sinister, and Dae-woo encounters a rather interesting twist to his fairy-tale-like first love.

Musical

A musical based on My Scary Girl was selected for the second Daegu International Music Festival. It has book and lyrics written by Kyoung-Ae Kang, and music composed by Will Aronson. The show received funding for further development and was performed publicly at the Daegu Bongsan Culture Center from July 5—July 6, 2008. A full production has been running in Seoul in 2009. The show was designated Best Original Musical in the small theater category at the 2009 Korea Musical Awards.

An American version of the musical was selected by the Barrington Stage Company for the 2008 Musical Theater Lab. This workshop production was performed from July 10—July 26, 2008. This version had a book written by Kyoung-Ae Kang and Mark St. Germain, music composed by Will Aronson, lyrics written by Kyoung-Ae Kang, and additional lyrics contributed by William Finn.

As part of an international exchange program with the Daegu International Musical Festival, the New York Musical Theater Festival presented the Korean version of My Scary Girl October 1-4, 2009 at the Acorn Theater in New York City.
