The self-proclaimed Avengers of the Engineering these three may be the smartest guys on campus but they’re complete failures when it comes to social interaction.
Having been single for 9,888 days, the three friends agree that it’s time for them to find a girlfriend and end their days of singleness forever.

Scouring books and the internet for any helpful tips on how to get a girl, the three boys set out on a quest to end their loneliness, but getting a girl’s attention is harder than it looks!
With the school festival fast approaching, the boys decide this is the perfect time to find a girlfriend. But can love really be found so easily? Hwi So isn’t so sure.

VI. Reception
My Bossy Girl has gotten the scores of 9.3 on Rakuten Viki, 7.8 on Mydramalist &, 6.4 on IMDB. Korean Grindhouse has stated as followed - A total bullseye. Lee Jang-hee's My Bossy Girl is basically one of those feel-good rom-coms in which you want everyone to be happy at the end: the science geek girl and her henna-haired lab partner; the supportive sister with international dreams of her own. And why shouldn't everyone get exactly what they wish? Why can't we have our desires and goals met and not just ours but those of our friends and family? I understand that someone has to lose but can't those be people in minor roles that we'll never see again or if they're robots can they fade into the background? No one's saying that life isn't hard but can't we have two frolicsome hours that culminate in a win-win-win? According to My Bossy Girl, we sure can.
