Sold Out on You Meet Dam Ye Jin — The Woman Who Never Stops Selling
Sold Out on You is a romantic comedy about the unexpected love story between Matthew Lee (Ahn Hyo Seop), a perfectionist farmer juggling multiple jobs, and Dam Ye Jin (Chae Won Bin), a top home shopping show host who suffers from severe insomnia.
But Dam Ye Jin isn’t just any host. As the ace host of Hit Home Shopping, she boasts a remarkable track record — selling 100 million won (approximately $68,000) per minute and reaching a cumulative total of 1 trillion won (approximately $679 million) in sales.
She is, in every sense of the word, a force of nature.
