==Synopsis==
This series is based on the 1987 American movie ''[[Wikipedia:Overboard (1987 film)|Overboard]]''. Anna Jo ([[Han Ye Seul]]) is a rude, feisty, and audacious American-bred heiress who can never be satisfied. She returns to Korea only to continue being a controlling wife to her already cowardly husband, Billy Park ([[Kim Sung Min]]). When her yacht gets stuck for repairs, she hires local handyman Jang Chul Soo ([[Oh Ji Ho]]) to fix her shower, but when they have a heated spat over her dissatisfaction and non payment, she pushes him overboard and dunks his tools into the ocean right along with him. Later, after a quarrel with Billy that threatens to end their marriage, she herself gets drunkenly pitched overboard and falls victim to a bad case of amnesia.
