I don't know if anybody has this problem... cause for me, I have been watching too many dramas that I do not have patience to watch a movie anymore and I end up dropping the movie half the way.
But this movie had me gripped from the first scene to the last! It had everything that I would look for in 'beautiful' movie! Great actors, cinematography, setting and simple but a heart touching story!
I am not sure if I would like to term it to be sad story (even though it tear jerking)...cause although the movie has a sad ending, it seemed to be satisfying. I would call it a bittersweet story!
A tragically beautiful movie about family, love(not romantic), loss and reunion and death. If you have had a grandma whom you shared a good bond with, then this movie is gonna take you down the memory lane and would make you miss her!
My only problem was that Choi Min Ho's pretty face was such a waste in this movie cause of the very brief role he had to play!
I would suggest this movie as one of the best Korean Movie!

And the sad part is that it is totally underrated!
Romantic, flowery K-dramas are what we mostly look for and would like to watch. But this is a MUST watch even if you think crime solving K-dramas are not something you will enjoy. The story is out of the world! there are soooo many twist and turns in the drama yet you will never find yourself confused or bored. Kudos to the writer for such a brilliant script that is totally one of a kind. Acting on point! Editing perfect!
And the high point of this drama was the ending...it is an open ending...but for the first time i loved that they kept the ending open cause once you watch the drama you will understand that it was a very smart thing to do by the writers....that way they kept the feel of the drama and also the viewers can eagerly wait for a sequel...and MAN there should be a sequel!!!
Special mention to the OST~~~~Its worth playing in loop!

I only attempted to watch this Noona romance for this hunk (I am not a big fan of noona romances) and for the records this noona romance was totally unrealistic and absurd with a wide age gap!
But once I started watching (reluctantly though) it, I dint want this light and fluffy drama to end...EVER! All cause of this handsomeness! He proved his mettle with his acting as well!
Uhm Jung Hwa... though I was not sure about her as a leading lady against the handsome Seo Joon...she did not disappoint me she suited the role perfectly! I have to mention this point without fail...she looked amazing...I mean if I was to look that good at 40plus age I wouldn’t be guilty to date guys half my age as well! :D :D :D
It was a good show over all. Not one that would be on my FAVORITES list though (but for Park Seo Joon I am going to put it up on favorites!),
A must watch for all Seo Joon fans...If you have been watching a lot of sageuk, melodrama or action dramas and want a break from it all for a love-dovey cute one...watch this (recommending it to even the ones who hate noona romances)! It’s like a refreshing palate cleanser!
Well as for the rating I have given...I wasn't very happy with the OST! I believe every romance drama should have beautiful OST to enhance it.

But still for a fair review... I just had to closed my eyes and I could still feel my heart racing, could hear the screeching cars, blaring sirens and ear splitting guns shots....felt almost like I just finished a game of NFS (an updated version of it...maybe!)
The movie had a familiar plot that was wound around Hi-Tec visuals to give you all the feels of a gaming world. Story revolved around how the unemployed strata of the society become scapegoats to the country's social economic "higher-ups" and how a bunch of online gamers get together to fight them successfully after one one of them was falsely accused.
Acting was on point! As for Ji Chang Wook fans, it is a disappointment as there are not many scene where you can go all heart eyes over his sweet face or his hunky body... but for all you gamming fans out there, it is a fast paced action packed treat you would not want to miss!
Liked the fact that a pixie looking young girl was the master hacker who helps, in place of a stereotypical nerdy boy that is the usual!
Over all the movie did a fair job in its genre and you can watch it ...for it is a visual treat for all action lovers!
