The Story of Park’s Marriage Contract

In 19th-century Korea, a woman named Park Yeon Woo (Lee Se Young) is ready to live happily ever after marrying her handsome husband. But the night of the wedding, disaster strikes: Her bridegroom tells her he was secretly suffering from a devastating heart condition – and dies shortly after. Things go from bad to worse when she is kidnapped and thrown down a well shaft...apparently to her doom. But the well turns out to be a portal that lets her travel through time to the present day, landing in a swimming pool. She is saved from a watery death by Kang Tae Ha (Bae In Hyuk), who, like Park Yeon Woo’s husband, suffers from a potentially fatal heart condition. Kang Tae Ha is the heir to a powerful conglomerate, and his wealthy grandfather has one wish: To see his grandson wed before he dies. Spying an opportunity, Kang Tae Ha tries to convince Park Yeon Woo to enter into a contract marriage with him. But will this strange woman, with her old-world Confucian values, agree to help him? “The Story of Park’s Marriage Contract” is a 2023 movie that was directed by Park Sang Hoon.
