I Need Romance (Korean: 로맨스가 필요해; RR: Romaenseuga Pilyohae) is a 2011 South Korean romantic comedy series starring Cho Yeo-jeong, Kim Jeong-hoon, Choi Yeo-jin, Choi Song-hyun and Choi Jin-hyuk. It aired on tvN from June 13 to August 2, 2011, on Mondays and Tuesdays at 23:00 (KST) for 16 episodes.[1]
The cable drama revolves around three thirty-something career women and their complicated love lives. It was popular with female viewers in their 20s and 30s for depicting contemporary women in a realistic way.[2][3]
Funny, romantic, and just a little racy, I Need Romance follows the _Sex and the City_-like adventures of three thirty-something best friends looking for love in modern-day Seoul.
