Very Ordinary Couple (Korean연애의 온도; RRYeon-ae-ui Ondo; lit. Romance's Temperature) is a 2013 South Korean romantic comedy film written and directed by Roh Deok (alternatively spelled Noh Deok), starring Lee Min-ki and Kim Min-hee as a recently separated couple who, being employees at the same bank, must deal with the prospect of continually seeing each other on a daily basis. This inevitably leads to tension and flareups, but over time their feelings towards each other begin to change.[2][3][4]

This is Roh Deok's feature directorial debut. She based the screenplay on her own love life and those of her circle of friends.[5]
