Something Happened in Bali (Hangul: 발리에서 생긴 일; RR: Balli-eseo Saenggin Il; also known as What Happened in Bali or Memories of Bali) is a 2004 South Korean television drama series, starring Ha Ji-won, Jo In-sung, So Ji-sub and Park Ye-jin. It aired on SBS from January 3 to March 7, 2004 on Saturdays and Sundays at 21:55 for 20 episodes.
Lee Soo-jung (Ha Ji-won) is an orphan who works as a tour guide in Bali. She has a useless brother that constantly gets into trouble and needs her to bail him out all the time. She struggles to make ends meet and aspires to be rescued out of her current predicament by a rich and wealthy man.
Jung Jae-min (Jo In-sung) is the youngest son of the wealthy Chairman of the Pax Group. He is uninterested in business, irresponsible, arrogant, childish, self-centered and a playboy. Jae-min is constantly put down by his elder brother and beaten up by his father, but he is immune to all these treatments. He is engaged to Choi Young-joo (Park Ye-jin), who comes from a comparable wealthy and powerful family. Both Jae-min and Young-joo are not in love with each other. Jae-min is of the opinion that even with marriage, it should not affect how both of them are to lead their lives.
Young-joo in turn is still in love with her ex-boyfriend Kang In-wook (So Ji-sub) whom she left so that she can be engaged to Jae-min (as per arranged by both parents). Kang In-wook comes from a lower-class family, his parents are divorced and his mother opens a small restaurant. He is a capable person at work but he has a cold exterior and it is difficult to read his mind.
Young-joo visits In-wook who is working in Indonesia, and asks him to spend some time with her where no one knows them. They take off to Bali only to be greeted by Jae-min at the airport who had tracked Young-joo down from Seoul. Young-joo claims that In-wook is an ex-classmate whom she met on the place. Jae-min invites In-wook to join him and Young-joo on the Bali trip. Soo-jung is the tour guide hired by Jae-min for the city tour. The tour was tense for Jae-min, In-wook and Young-joo. Soo-jung tries to figure out how the 3 are connected, and suspects In-wook to be the rich and wealthy one amongst them.
