Several reviewers took exception at this film's depiction of marriage between an adult (a college student) and a 15 year old high school student. I feel the subject was handled with a lot of sensitivity. Arranged marriages are still frequent in many parts of the world, and deserve a movie about them. Millions of very young women still tie the knot before they are 18, in Asia or the near-east or Africa. Why should the subject be taboo? The film does not condone the practice, as a matter of fact it shows how wrong it could be. The pleasure comes from watching these two young people make what they can with a situation they are not completely responsible for. Although the film is light and often funny, it has its share of pathos. Many will recall the awkwardness of first relationships, they are even more awkward in an arranged marriage.

This movie is very likable. The two stars are fun and charming. The tone is breezy throughout, but very realistic. Many of the clichés are there (THe karaoke scene, the dream scene, the misunderstanding(s) at school...), but they are treated in such an offhand way that they don't feel calculated. For a first film, Ho-joon Kim's direction is assured and precise. One of the best Korean comedies I have seen lately, recommended to put a smile on your face, and make you think...

Sang Min is the typical young college man and a wanna be playboy and Bo Eun is a darling little high school sweetie who has a crush on her school's pretty boy jock. They are like brother and sister since their families go back to their grandfathers' friendship. Grand dad makes Sang Min and Bo Eun marry to uphold a promise he made to his best friend to tie their families together. They both disagree for practical reasons but old grand dad still has some tricks up his sleeve and the love story begins...

High school teen and college twenty something collide in sweet and funny little twists and turns. What seems so irrational to unknowing youngsters is plain for the elders to see. Although the premise of youthful marriage maybe unusual for some, the film is a really innocent and charming love story. You'll fall in love with Sang Min and Bo Eun and you'll appreciate the love you have. The leads do a great job and the supporting cast is highlighted by the Homeroom teacher who has plenty of humorous run ins with Sang Min. 8/10

This is a sweet tale, despite the inherent ickiness of its initial premise. I went into it with almost no expectations and was pleasantly surprised. The chemistry between the leads is good, although the star here is the heroine. She's got charm and charisma, a sort of wholesomeness that's perfect for the role, and just enough sass to not make her boring. The plot is fun, with just the right comedic turns, and it moves along at a good pace. I liked that it was never shy to point out the weirdness of the setup and to poke fun at it. It's got a good blend of romance and comedy, but more comedy than the former. I didn't particularly care for the side characters, but our main couple was enough to keep me hooked and watching until the end. They're friends, first and foremost, and that really shone through.

When I saw the cover I thought that it was just another cheesy love story between a girl and an older guy.

But as soon as I started watching I couldn't turn away...not for a second. Although the story is not very original, the comedy sure was with an excellent cast and humorous antics that will make you laugh and cry.

Although this may sound clichéd, Seo Bo-eun and Park Sang-min do really make a nice couple. Miss Kim was also another cast member who should receive some recognition for her great acting talent, even though she wasn't a main character.

To all those yet to decide whether to go and borrow or rent this I would really recommend it.

Korean cinema really churns out some mind-blowing fresh original movies.Like many non-Koreans viewers i was also simply blown away by a simple yet touching story like 'My sassy Girl' and naturally MSG has set a standard hard to surpass but still My little bride deserves respect and appreciation for being a cute romantic love story which will surely gonna bring a smile on your face if not completely blowing your head.Though movie is around 2 hours long but the plot doesn't look stretched and director gives sufficient time for characters and feelings to develop.The movie is successful in retaining its innocence which was also the soul of MSG and yes the soundtrack is awesome and fully complements to this melodious sweet innocent love-story...worth a watch .I guarantee you wont be disappointed (but don't expect a MSG..)
