RECENT RELATED ARTICLE
When Kim Ju-hyuk played the role of a stuffy assistant teacher on ``KAIST'' in 1999, he easily could have passed as an extra picked up on the set. Not only was his delivery of lines awkward, his overall performance was just plain bad, critics said. But experience gained on the job eventually led him to landing his first major role as a detective in the 2002 thriller ``Say Yes,'' which he starred alongside Chu Sang-mi and Park Choong-hun. It wasn't long before critics were writing that he was a chip off the old block, as it was no secret that he was the son of actor Kim Moo-saeng, who passed on last spring. The younger Kim has gone on to take the male lead in ``YMCA Baseball Team,'' ``Mr. Handy'' and other box office hits. Today he stars in the most-watched weekend soap ``Lovers in Prague'' as a detective in love with the president’s daughter. (In real life, he's taken by actress Kim Ji-su.)

The presidents daughter, Yoon Jae-hee (Jeon Do-yeon) is living in Prague working as an official in the consulate under foreign affairs. Choi Sang-hyeon (Kim Joo-hyuk) is a detective who goes to Prague in order to look for his girlfriend, Hye-joo (Yoon Se-ah). Sang-hyeon who loves Hye-joo with all of his heart has been paying for Hye-joo's tuition, and was planning to marry her. However one day Hye-joo (who is in Prague) tells Sang-hyeon never to look for her again.
Sang-hyeon ends up going to Prague to find Hye-joo. Sang-hyeon meets Jae-hee and misunderstandings arrive between them. Sang-hyeon ends up thinking Jae-hee is a prostitute but later asks her to help him translate (because he only spoke Korean) when he gets into a little problem with a pick-pocketer. Coincidentally, Jae-hee's roommate is Hye-joo. Later Sang-hyeon learns that she is pregnant with another mans baby. Hye-joo tells Sang-hyeon she loves the other man because he is wealthy. Ji Young-woo (Kim Min-joon) is from a prominant family, he was Jae-hee's former boyfriend, but had left her due to his own reasons, and still harbors feelings for her.
3 months later, back in Korea, Jae-hee gets pulled over for speeding. The officer who pulled her over is Sang-hyeon...the two then form a love story.
