Sassy Girl Chun-hyang (Korean쾌걸 춘향) is a 2005 South Korean television series starring Han Chae-young in the title role, along with Jae Hee, Uhm Tae-woong and Park Si-eun.[1] It aired from January 3 to March 1, 2005, on KBS2's Mondays and Tuesdays at 21:55 time slot for 17 episodes.

A modern retelling of the classic Korean Chunhyangjeon ("Tale of Chunhyang"),[2] the romantic comedy series was called "fusion-style" for, among others, mixing rap with pansori in the background music.

This is the first Korean drama written by Hong Jung-eun and Hong Mi-ran (collectively called the Hong sisters), and remains the highest-rated in their filmography, with a peak viewership rating of 32.2%.[3]
