Lee Jun Gi makes fantastic movies and his acting is always excellent. I love him and his acting. I watched for Lee Jun Gi and no other reason but soon, i found myself getting caught up in the movie. This is not original in any way, but then again, is life ever truly original? This is about a father's love for his daughter and his ability to protect her. It is also about what happens in life when we let the everyday worries take over - we forget what is really important. That is, family and also your health.
I also liked how 'daddy' was somewhat adopted by Lee Jun Gi's character. I felt for that young boy - he looked like he needed a protector too. My only beef is that the ending - we don't know what happens to those three boys. I wanted more and thought the story was a bit unfinished.
The story - I felt that this was what would happen in a Joseon period. The rich take advantage, but the Iljimae type combats it. I liked this movie a lot.
The music also had me dancing in my chair all the time. Loved it.
