My Review:
I didn’t even know I’ve seen this film before after scouring korean sites to check what’s more good to watch. The premise is interesting and it reminds of another foreign french film with similar but not exactly the same story, Heartbreaker. So, I ended up watching it again. As the scenes unfold on my screen, the scenes seem to be familiar but I can’t put my finger on it where I saw it before. Then, my light bulb lights up when I saw the cassanova of the story. I finally remembered. I remembered not because I like it but totally the opposite. The actor, Ryu Seung-Ryong, seems to not fit the character. He’s neither good looking nor seems to have the character of a ladies man. I mean it is so incredulous even for a comedy or probably that’s it. Maybe I’m just too thick-skinned to appreciate the fun of it. To top my dismay, Im Soo-Jung is again the actress. I just re-watched a few weeks ago Finding Mr. Destiny which I found such a ridiculous movie now several years after I liked it for some strange reason. To be fair I like the acting of Im Soo-Jung gave to her character here than in Finding Mr. Destiny because she’s truly an exasperating and annoying wife in this film. There are indeed some funny and great moments on this film but like Lee Doo-Hyun’s feeling for Yeon Jung-In, I want to divorce this film and have my peace again even if I thought I will initially love this film.
Would I recommend this K-Movie? Not really but if you can relate to the story, you’ll probably enjoy the moments on this film as I’ve mentioned where I don’t need to fast forward it.
