It’s a bitter-sweet saguek comedy with a big show of Junho, because his performance is brilliant. The rest of the cast did a good job too, especially Kim Dong Young, who deserves a lead role in the next film of director Nam De Joong.
The script is just impressively elaborated and the dialogues are intelligent. The story picks up social problems located in the past, but universal about life of women and scars in the human hearts.
It isn't a classic romcom, not at all. It isn't a trivial and banal light entertainment. It’s a touching love story with a very special taste of humor and Junho was able to create this unique spirit.
I highly recommend, the scenario and acting are top notch. But you must be ready to cry.

for a lot of the movie but I persevered as I was drawn by both the leading actors and what seemed like a good storyline.
Apart from the distracting subs, it moved along nicely and was entertaining. I wouldn't call it a bad movie but I think I could have appreciated a lot more if the subs had have been right. At the end of the day, it had great potential with good actors but it never quite 'got there' for me. I was a bit disappointed after it eneded as I had expected more than what was presentated

The story had potential and there were moments where it was really, really good, like towards the ending with that dramatic scenes, which had some great performances too. However, the presentation of the story was off. The camera work was odd, with the lighting of the settings sometimes too natural for a movie. There were some scenes that moves too fast and others where the action happened off the scene.

Bittersweet love story beautifully told in a movie
The ML was in his forte not only playing a footloose and carefree teenager falling in love but a desirable and seductive male gisaeng. Watching him dance to entertain his clients made me wish I was there in person!Costumes, props and sets were realistic and transported you back in time to Joseon. Scenery was gorgeous as well and it was a visual feast for the eyes. Story was pretty simple so you could focus on the romance and had its trademark Korean touch of a bittersweet ending with a little twist.
A good watch when you don’t have the time to invest in a multi-episode drama and want a little romance fix with a tinge of sadness. Pom Rak Khun is my takeaway from this movie.

COMEDY?? I CRIED A RIVER BROOOO
FOR ME ITS SAD ENDING, WHY? THEY DID NOT END UP TOGETHER AND THEY DIDN'T EVEN SAID "I LOVE YOU" FACE TO FACE. I FEEL PITY FOR THE OTHER GUY BUT F HIM, HE'S THE REASON WHY THE MALE LEAD GOT HURT AND THEIR MARRIAGE WAS FORCED. ALSO THE LITTLE GIRL DID NOT DESERVE TO DIE, HIS ALMOST HUSBAND IS SH!T. I JUST REALLY FEEL SAD BUT THE MOVIE IS BEAUTIFUL. I JUST REALLY HOPE THEY END UP TOGETHER AND HAVE KIDS AND THE GISAENGS WILL FIND THEIR PERFECT PARTNER AND ALSO LIVE HAPPILY AND THOSE ARISTOCATS WILL BE REPLACED WITH BETTER PEOPLE, THE MOVIE IS REALLY OUTSTANDING I LITERALLY CRIED, LAUGH, AND GOT ANGRY. I LOVE ALL OF THEM, VERY VERY GOOD ACTING.Was this review helpful to you?

Un film romantique émouvant où Junho démontre une fois de plus, tout son talent
Le film commence comme une comédie, un peu féministe (ce qui ne fait pas de mal :), une satire de cette époque en Corée où les hommes avaient tous les droits et les femmes, bien peu.On y retrouve aussi (ce qui perdure dans la culture coréenne) le poids du statut (du rang) social.
Le ton devient plus doux-amer à mesure que les sentiments se renforcent, et de façon réaliste, il n'y a pas vraiment de Happy End.
Les images sont belles, la musique accompagne parfaitement l'évolution des personnages, et il faut féliciter les acteurs pour incarner ainsi leurs personnages.
J'ai regardé ce film pour Junho, et je m'en félicite car j'ai pu constaté une fois de plus, que ce n'est pas seulement une idol, mais également un très grand acteur ❤❤❤

Filminho histórico fofinho e engraçado que provavelmente te fará cai um cisco no olho do nada OH mas chorei( Ps: sou chorona). O filme é um Junho de cortesã ( SIM ) e o amo fofinho e impossível dele e da Somin. 😭O filme pega algumas questões sociais das mulheres e trás a tona, coisas que te de tão uma tristeza masque são reais. Recomendo o filme pra que não espera muito mas quer se empolgar com a história. Afinal histórias de amores impossíveis são as melhores.
