3	'''''Dasepo Sonyo''''' (also called '''''Dasepo Naughty Girls''''') is a 2006 South Korean sex comedy about a high school filled with (mostly off-screen) sexual hijinks and the few virginal outcasts who are trying to fit in.
4	----
5	!!This film contains examples of:
6
7	* AlphaBitch: Vice-President Girl. She sabotages Poor Girl's chances of getting the lead in a school play in a humiliating fashion just to get the part for herself, then drops out after becoming a "born-again".
8	* AmbiguousGenderIdentity: The first time we see Big Razor Sister, they are dressed as a schoolgirl, but Poor Girl initially calls them "Mister". Later, Poor Girl refers to them with feminine pronouns. However, much later in the movie, we see Big Razor Sister dressed as a man. Big Razor Sister's exact gender is never truly specified (contrast this to Double Eyes, who is explicitly a trans girl).
9	* AnthropomorphicPersonification: For most of the movie, Poverty literally clings to Poor Girl like a stuffed animal backpack.
10	* AttractiveBentGender: Double Eyes is cute as hell.
11	* {{Bathos}}: A frequent element to the comedy in this film. For instance, the first scene after the opening credits has Poor Girl trying to talk herself into having sex with a stranger for money, but the scene ends with [[spoiler:him asking her to play videogames with him instead.]] Later, she sees Anthony and goes into a long IWantSong about how beautiful he is... and then trips and tumbles down a staircase.
12	* BittersweetEnding: [[spoiler:Poverty detaches itself from Poor Girl, and she goes on to work at a bank. But then it attaches itself to Anthony, as his parents are implicated in a financial scandal and he is forced to return to Switzerland, where he becomes a farmer. He's actually happy about this, though, because he was never terribly comfortable being so wealthy. And meanwhile, Poor Girl's mother is finally reunited with her long-lost son, but he turns out to be a penniless punk]].
13	* BreakingTheFourthWall: Poor Girl and Anthony both do this on occasion.
14	* CreepyCrossDresser: Big Razor Sis is far too old to be dressing up like a high school girl. On the other hand, she is much kinder to Poor Girl than anyone else.
15	* TheCutie: Poor Girl, Double Eyes, and Bellflower.
16	* {{Cyclops}}: There is a one-eyed character called "Cyclops".
17	* DrivenToSuicide: As the film opens, Poor Girl is so depressed over her situation that she's contemplating suicide.
18	* EvenEvilHasStandards: The local loan shark's goons threaten to burn down Poor Girl's house - with her family in it - unless her mother's debts are paid off. When Poor Girl offers to have sex with them in exchange for more time, one of them ''slaps'' her and they stomp off in disgust at her proposition. When Poor Girl later meets their boss, he concedes that he seldom actually has his goons hurt people.
19	* TheFakeCutie: Big Razor Sis.
20	* TheGrotesque: Cyclops is ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin.
21	* ForeignExchangeStudent: Anthony, a student from Switzerland.
22	* HorribleHousing: Poor Girl lives with her mother and little brother in a tiny one-room apartment. There's no bathroom indoors, so when her mother gets bedridden, she resorts to relieving herself in a bottle.
23	* IncurableCoughOfDeath: Poor Girl's mother has one, but she never actually dies from it.
24	* InnocentFlowerGirl: Poor Girl has elements of this. Early in the film, she tries to become a call girl to feed her family, but her first customer has a rather ''unusual'' kink ([[spoiler:he wants her to play a sexy fighting video game against him, because his wife refuses to]].)
25	* InnocentlyInsensitive: Anthony is so used to girls just throwing themselves at him that he has no idea how to actually woo a girl, and thus, when he tries to visit Poor Girl at her home, he makes an ass of himself and humiliates her.
26	* IWantSong:
27	** Both Poor Girl and Anthony have one each. Korean-speaking audiences are invited to sing along!
28	** There's also Creator/WBYeats' "He Wishes for the Cloths of Heaven", which is employed to give us an idea of what Anthony ''really'' wants.
29	* LapPillow: Big Razor Sis lets Poor Girl rest her head in her lap after she's had a long cry.
30	* LongLostRelative: Poor Girl has an older brother she's never met. Her mother put him up for adoption before she was born, and he was adopted by a Swiss couple. [[spoiler:Her mother hopes that Anthony is the long-lost brother, but the real brother turns out to be a punkish vagrant named Hans.]]
31	* LoveHurts: And how. Poor Girl loves Anthony, but he's way above her (and later, [[spoiler:beneath her]].) Anthony loves Double Eyes, but she hates him. And poor Cyclops thinks that the lovely Bellflower has a crush on him because of the scribblings in her textbook, but she actually borrowed the textbook... from Football Captain.
32	* MagicalQueer: Big Razor Sis helps Poor Girl to become more confident.
33	* MistakenForIncest: Poor Girl is briefly deterred from pursuing her crush Anthony after her mother mistakes Anthony for a son that she gave up for adoption years ago, as the son was adopted by a Swiss couple, just as Anthony was. It later turns out that Anthony is ''not'' her son; her actual long-lost son is a vagrant named Hans.
34	* MobDebt: During the film's opening, Poor Girl's mother has racked up a lot of debt to the local loan shark, Big Razor, resulting in Poor Girl reluctantly agreeing when Big Razor demands a night with her in exchange for paying off the debts. Fortunately, it turns out that Big Razor is, in fact, Big Razor Sister, a cross-dresser who just wants someone to hang out and do girly things with.
35	* NoRomanticResolution: [[spoiler:Poor Girl and Anthony never end up together.]]
36	* OnlyKnownByTheirNickname: Only a few of the characters have proper names. Most are just referred to by their title ("class monitor", "class president", etc.) The lead is just referred to as Poor Girl (though strangely enough, both of her siblings have given names.)
37	* PlatonicProstitution: Poor Girl's few clients all seem to want something other than sex.
38	* {{Ponzi}}: Poor Girl's dimwitted mother gets caught up in a literal pyramid scheme - she's tricked into buying dozens of worthless pyramids with the promise that she'd be able to sell them for lots of money.
39	* TerribleIntervieweesMontage: At one point, the theatre club has auditions for a play, where the young actresses are asked to imagine that they're opening a pot to discover that they're out of rice. Most of the actresses completely blow it.
40	* ThoseTwoGuys: Pompadour and Spiked Hair.
41	* UnsettlingGenderReveal: Anthony is greatly unsettled after realizing that Double Eyes isn't exactly ladylike.
42	* WhereAreTheyNowEpilogue: During the credits, drawings of the major characters appear, accompanied by text explaining their fates.
