While the story has been told in movies before, it has never been told as well & with acting this good. Bo-yeong Park would have at least been nominated for an Academy Award if this was a Hollywood film. It was enjoyable from start to finish. Basically a drama with little sporadic comedic bits just to not make it too deep or serious. While the story is familiar of daughter finding long-lost Father, the way it is treated is different. You can't predict what comes next like others. The acting is so good (even if you need the subtitles) you really feel close to all the characters. When Hollywood uses this story, its always pure fluff or a comedy with no laughs. If you normally stay away from foreign non-English movies, this is one of the movies you really should try. A great example that some of the best movies are made outside of Hollywood.

The tone of this show is enjoyable funny and tightly written so each scene is fun and not redundant and never painful. Lots of endearing characters. The kid is amazing. PBY has her breakthrough performance and she is cute and believable. They all look alike GF daughter and grand kid. A well crafted comic gem.

One of the best Korean movie I have ever seen. Really a master piece worth watching one. The grip of the movie is really effective two hours just felt like 15 minutes. Ground breaking story line which is even more uplifted by the actors. Each and every component of the movie is just perfect. A complete family movie and a promising mood lifter.

Able to humor an audience even though there is a cultural gap for non-Korean viewers. Manages a couple of laugh out loud moments in a mostly G-rated family oriented film. If you have no problems with subtitles or situational comedies, this movie is worth your time.

The film stays away from preaching its value set. Rather spending the 108 minutes of run time on the situations that have been created out of the characters choices.

Tae-hyun Cha creates a solid performance. In a role that could have been an unlikeable character, yet he keeps the main character fun. Bo-yeong Park plays her role down the middle. A solid performance from the side-kick role, Ji-ru Sung appears to steal every scene he is a part of.

Top stars and the kid is cute but not that interesting and funny. It wants to be a drama but turns to be a comedy or the other way around.
