Regardless of what people say about Ryu Seung Ryong’s acting and the predictable storylines, I still love this movie! I was sure of my decision to watch this movie. When I read the plot, I was immediately interested, let alone the casts: Lee Sun Gyun, Im Soo Jung, Ryu Seung Ryong and LEE KWANG SOO. Yes, the “comedian” Lee Kwang Soo. It’s never not funny when Kwang Soo’s around!
Here’s a little summary:
So the story starts off with Jung-In (Im Soo Jung) who’s studying in Japan whom met Doo Hyun (Lee Sun Gyun) coincidentally because of a sudden earthquake. They both fell in love and decided to get married some time later. After 7 years of marriage, Doo Hyun gets tired of all the nagging and all of his wife’s bad habits (smoking, getting angry at everything, basically just embarassing him around). Whenever he tries to just run away from all the problems at home, his wife just follows him around everywhere.
Then.... he met casanova Sung Ki (Ryu Seung Ryong) that lives around his neighborhood. Doo Hyun begged him to seduce Jung-In just for the sake of a divorce agreement form his wife (because he thinks his wife would cheat on him after all). Sung Ki agrees and he starts digging for information about Jung In so he would click with her more. Long story short, Jung In became closer and closer with Sung Ki, she also gets a job, she became quieter, she just became perfect once again. She became the woman Doo Hyun once fell in love with. That’s when Doo Hyun started regretting his decision on making a stranger seduce his own wife.
This movie just hits right in the feels. I just liked the idea of everything. Although the storyline seemed very predictable and the acting may seem quite cringy, it doesn’t really bother me at all! I found myself laughing and getting teary eyed throughout the movie, though. This is the Korean romantic-comedy I’ve searched for ever! I’ve never watched any Korean movies with these right amount of romantic scenes (not cheesy ones) and the perfect amount of comedy to top it up (Ryu Seung Ryong and Lee Kwang Soo is just drop dead funny, GOSH).
Overall, a 9.5/10. I would love to rewatch this movie over and over again just for a good laugh and a heartfelt story. ⭐️
