Oh! My Guard is a romantic drama that tells the unpredictable love story between Uhm Tae Bong (played by Jung Yong Hwa of CNBLUE), a top-tier actor with a fatal flaw, and Oh Hae Ra (Hong Seung Hee), a mysterious woman convinced that she is Cha Hong Doo, the female lead of one of his dramas.
What role does the fictional drama The Prince’s Bodyguard play?
Within the universe of Oh! My Guard, there is a fictional drama called The Prince's Bodyguard, the project with which Uhm Tae Bong debuted as a lead and established himself as a major star. This production within the fiction tells the love story between Han Jung Woo, a chaebol heir whose life is in danger, and Cha Hong Doo, a secret bodyguard tasked with protecting him.
In that fictional plot, Uhm Tae Bong plays Han Jung Woo, while Song Na Ri (played by Park You Na), an idol-turned-actress, plays Cha Hong Doo.
Han Jung Woo is a man who refuses to open his heart after being threatened by those close to him. However, he begins to change upon meeting Cha Hong Doo, who cannot stand injustice. As they protect each other, they develop romantic feelings for one another.
The Prince's Bodyguard also earned Uhm Tae Bong the nickname of the master of romantic dramas who never films kiss scenes, thanks to his ability to convey romance solely through the expressiveness of his gaze.
Why does Oh Hae Ra believe she is the lead of the drama?
The fictional series also holds special meaning for Oh Hae Ra, a chaebol heir. After living isolated from the world for a long time, she found comfort watching The Prince's Bodyguard and spent her days imagining a romance with the character of Han Jung Woo.
However, after an unexpected accident, Oh Hae Ra begins to believe that she is actually Cha Hong Doo. Upon meeting Uhm Tae Bong in real life, she mistakes him for Han Jung Woo and declares that she will become his secret bodyguard. She even gets angry with him when he fails to remember her.
For his part, Uhm Tae Bong cannot understand the behavior of Oh Hae Ra, who acts as if she were the female lead of his hit drama, and tries to keep his distance from her. One of the key points to follow will be what kind of relationship these two characters will develop in real life, intertwined with each other through the fiction of The Prince's Bodyguard.
