100 Days with Mr. Arrogant
2004 South Korean film by Shin Jai-ho
100 Days with Mr. Arrogant (aka My Love Ssagaji) is a 2004 South Korean romantic comedy film directed by Shin Jai-ho, starring Ha Ji-won and Kim Jaewon in the lead roles.
History
The film originates from a genre called internet fiction (derived from which were movies such as My Sassy Girl, Do Re Mi Fa So La Ti Do, A Millionaire's First Love, Romance of Their Own, and He Was Cool. This popular internet fiction was later released in the form of a four-part book series that was later turned into a movie. Although there are many scenes that were taken out and also added in place, it was a big hit around that time to create movies that derived from internet fiction stories and writers. The original Korean title can be translated as My Love, the Asshole, or, more roughly, as My Love, the No-manners.
Plot
After being dumped by her boyfriend just before their 100-day anniversary, Ha-Yeong (Ha Ji-won) meets a college guy named Hyung-Jun (Kim Jaewon) when she kicks a can that accidentally hits him in the face and causes him to scratch his Lexus. He demands she pay him $3000 on the spot. She escapes from him, accidentally leaving her wallet behind.
Hyung-Jun stalks her, demanding money to pay for his car.

Why this record matters
The phrase “2004 South Korean film by Shin Jai-ho” supplies a clear boundary for inquiry. It also exposes the unanswered questions: who defined that boundary, when it became stable and which sources sit outside it.
Attribution, date and provenance are strongest when supported by the original work, a catalogue record and documented transmission. The source revision retrieved here is dated May 22, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q165156. 1 of 1 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 2004.
Rights, attribution and provenance may remain disputed even when a general reference summary presents a stable account. The source lead contains qualifying language; that uncertainty should survive quotation, summary and reuse. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
