Samjin Company English Class

Full disclaimer: I lived in Korea 2009-2013 and have some tinted view based on my time as an English teacher in both rural and urban spots.

I think this movie delivers a really important message, and in a way that lots of people can relate to. The "foreigners are evil" trope is strong in this one. But I love the direct attack on chaebols, and the women's empowerment, and the rare view of '90s Korea (down to the soju bottle, incidentally - props!!)

Thanks to everyone involved for highlighting Korea, but also highlighting some important, modern, relevant issues concurrently! I think Korea now leads the "environment is important" movement at a global level, so way to turn it around in a decade. Hopefully, from now on, chaebols keep it together, and we keep those dirty foreigners out of our business!

Korean drama about big business impact on community... and the fight of the loyal employees to keep the company honest and reliable!

Gorgeous ladies, simple characters, screenplay sometimes gets lost in it owns imperfections, directing pretty ordinary for a Korean movie... but I still enjoyed it!

Though Covid-19 beats the theater screening, I, on the side of the audience, like the situation a bit because of a lot of small movies and re-released masterpieces. If there were no pandemic, I wonder how this movie is scored and evaluated.

This movie seems not as good as much as I expected. It is full of cliche-ridden lighting and editing. I like the way that they harvest the MacGuffins, but the purse of the story's development is somewhat messy.

I'm really sorry to say to the staff, ironically, I prefer the video that three main actors sing the song "What's the matter" in Yu Huiyel's Sketchbook.

The best part of what I like is the balance of the characters. No one stands out but there's a suitable tension between them to lead the development.

Sometimes, I used to feel tired in self-purification of society. I'm getting used to getting rid of it or running away. There is a Korean proverb that if a monk doesn't like the temple, he needs to leave. This movie makes me repeat the verse. Why does the monk have to leave? Is it okay even if the temple is filled with villains? This movie throws a pebble into the calm lake of my mind.

It feels like a cartoon , not a movie. Funny, casual and predictable.

But, I could enjoy watching the whole movie. Because, 3 protagonists are totally adorable. It worth watching.

I really like the three female leads and the plot of trying to uncover and reveal their company's hidden dark side is incredible!!! In a time where life is hard for working women, they really shine in their own way. I also enjoy their friendship.
