I never watch films without reading its synopsis but this was a great exception.
2-Storyline/Plot : On the outside, it may sound like the Korean version of "Mr. and Mrs. Smith" but somehow I thought it was special with its own events and its own charm.
I laughed so hard while watching this to the point that I tried blocking my mouth with my hands since was afraid that I may wake everyone in the house: yes, it was really funny! The story wasn't outstanding but the laughter moments (and sometimes romance moments) made me fall for it.
3-Acting/Cast : I like Kim Ha Neul and yeah she was cool here but I believe that Kang Ji Hwan was the leader of this film; he really cracked me up and the way he screams was so freaking funny, he really managed to pertray his role in a perfect way and most of all, he was believable.
4-The ending : I loved the final scene but the general ending was a typical rom-com ending.
5-My impression: This film literally cracked me up; I remember laughing my stomach out until I almost rolled on the floor late at night. This is a unforgettable film indeed.
6-Overall : This is the type of film that I would recommend to anyone:
There's laughter.
The funny romance.
Action (especially the hilarious action scenes with Kang Ji Hwan).

It's hilarious and I can't believe that Kang Ji-hwan did a great job in comedy role!!! I really love Kim Ha-neul and in this movie she never disappointment, no matter what kind of role, she's really good, and this time she's into action and yet she's sexy!!!
The movie includes foreigners as antagonist which made it more beautiful as it is a spy movie like James Bond or Borne Legacy with romance.. The flow is fast and it will not bore you. I really love the fighting scene.
Kim Ha-neul and Kang Ji-hwan made a cute chemistry between them! hope they have another project together in the future...
Rewatch value? 9!!!

There were a lot of moments I laughed out loud. Kang Ji Hwan has a certain style of physical comedy. He's an expressive actor and isn't afraid to be 'out there', to look silly or foolish. He can also turn it around on a dime and be serious and kind of badass. I dig that about him. Kim Haneul is good....just plain good. She really pulls off the silliness of the comedic moments but she is believable during the dramatic moments too. But this is mostly a farcical story even with all the spy action going on. I will be seeking out other things she's acted in.
I'm giving this high marks purely for my own enjoyment and I recommend this if you're up for a fun, easy watch.

The characters were good and funny. The plot was OK.
It's the kind of movie you'd watch if you had nothing to watch.
what is liked the least is the plot. It's an action movie so there supposed to be more action in it. But they were concentrating on the drama and the lives of the main characters.
The case in was easy to to solve so, most people wouldn't have that "what's gonna happen next?" moment or wonder "who did it?".
I don't strongly recommend watching it but it's worth watching.

I absolutely LOVE Kang Ji Hwan.. I love how he's that type of actor who isn't afraid to show his silly and outrageous side in his portrayal of his roles, and this film definitely showed that. And even though I'm not a big fan of Kim Ha Neul, I really liked her in this film. She brought a lot of comedy herself into this film, and I liked how her character was a very strong and independent heroine. Seriously, her action scenes were pretty kick-ass. The rest of the cast didn't paticularly stick out to me, since the film's main focus was the 2 leads.
Didn't hear much music, so I can't really give my judgement on that. Overall, I LOVED this film. It was funny and action packed with cheesy romance and didn't have its dull moments. I would definitely rewatch this film again.. I was more fond of the comedy then the romance, so it was definitely enough to come back to. If you haven't seen this film yet, I highly recommend you watch it. Especially if you're a fan of comedies and Kang Ji Hwan.. I think you just might enjoy this film!

Two things stood out most: a) The hilarious scenes. If you're looking for a good laugh, then be my guest and watch this! b) The amazing acting. I think both main leads did a great job... this is the first Korean movie/series in which the female lead didn't make me roll my eyes. Not even once! And Kang Ji Hwan did one of the best jobs out there. Also, the foreigners LOL. Numerous times I've heard that foreigners don't act well in Korean stuff, but these ones did. I'd also like to point out that the action scenes were not cheesy. So props for that! Now, to finish off... if you want a good laugh paired up with great acting and an interesting plot, I suggest you watch this :P
