Guiyeoni (born 1985 in Jae Chun, South Korea) is the penname of Internet novelist Lee Yoon-sae. She first reached fame with her novels He Was Cool and Romance of Their Own, which spawned commercially successful films of the same name, as with another book, A Wolf's Attraction. Since then, one of her other books, Do Re Mi Fa So La Ti Do, has become a film starring Jang Geun Suk. A movie of To My Boyfriend is also in planning stages. Despite her commercial success, Guiyeoni has been criticized for her lack of literary perfection, overuse of emoticons,[1] and unrealistic setting in her works.
