Strong Girl Nam-soon is a Netflix comedy series created by Baek Mi-kyung, Kim Jung-sik, and Lee Kyung-shik. It is a remake of the popular 2017 Mbc drama of the same name. It stars Lee You-mi, Kim Jung-eun, and Kim Hae-sook,
Every week, a new chapter about this girl endowed with extraordinary strength.
It is a fun and silly comedy that solely focuses on making people laugh, embracing its ridiculous and unapologetically stupid side.
Sit back and get ready for some silly laughs because the combination is, at the very least, surprising: a girl who, since she was a baby, could lift tables, jump four meters, and do all sorts of crazy things.
Plot
Nam-soon was born with superhuman strength, like her mother but, when her father comes up with the “brilliant” idea of taking his daughter to Mongolia to photograph the stars (who knows what he was thinking), he loses the girl.
