It brings a healthy dose of laughter and relatability to the screen. The film follows the escapades of three friends navigating their early twenties, and it perfectly captures the essence of youthful silliness and camaraderie.

The chemistry among the three main actors is infectious, delivering genuine humor and making their dynamic feel authentic. The movie's humor often hinges on relatable situations and awkward encounters, which many viewers in their twenties can easily connect with.

While this one leans heavily into its comedic elements, it doesn't shy away from moments of introspection and personal growth. Amid the hilarity, the characters undergo relatable coming-of-age experiences that add depth to the overall narrative.

The film's vibrant and colorful visuals complement its playful tone, creating a visually appealing experience. It's refreshing to watch a movie that doesn't take itself too seriously and simply aims to entertain and make audiences laugh.

In a world that can sometimes feel overwhelming, this movie provides a much-needed escape into a realm of youthful antics and friendship. If you're in the mood for a feel-good movie that brings out your inner goofiness, this film is a perfect choice to brighten your day.

Three male high school friends graduate and spin their wheels trying to figure out how "to adult" and have sex with girls in this light comedy. Reminds me of Dazed & Confused. The guys are immature idiots, guided by poor impulse control and hormones and go through some things to grow up a little bit. There are some VERY funny scenes, one set to the 1970's Harry Nilsson hit: "I Can't Live Without You" that left me weeping with laughter.

Cultural differences aside, the humor is easily appreciated here in America for universal reasons: aimless young men failing to launch and living at home to the frustration of parents, ex-girlfriends of one finding a sincere partner in another which causes hissy fits of impotent jealousy, over-drinking, over-sharing, nosy, snarky younger siblings, and zero ability to brawl.

Short. Lots of fun. Good cast, including Lee jun Ho. HIghly recommend.

OK I love everything about the film, entertainment wise. If you know the three main actors, you'll know this film was really just meant to compliment their careers, that's all. Kim Woo-Bin who played superficial Cha Chi Ho started off as a model in real life, and is a Korean primetime TV heartthrob; he stars in one of the most popular and beloved high-school romance series, like a live action manga series kind of show. So his appearance and role here is rather complimentary. Lee Jun Hoo and Lee Yu Bi are singers, and Kang Ha-nuel has starred in popular teen K-horror. Jung So-Min is also rather popular as I believe she also stars on Korean primetime TV.

This film is not meant to be Shakespearean to the loser guy above who couldn't even spell "formulaic." I didn't just see this film; it's been about a year since my first time, but I signed in just to say the racist moron who posted the review here is so busy being bitter and jealous-hearted, scrutinising their (sexy) appearances, that he forgot this is a film review section. Not America's Next Top Model. Which Kim Woo-Bin could DEFINITELY win.

For what the film was trying to do, it achieved and then some, which was to entertain its clear target audience (to lure women of all ages to the eye candy, and to find males who could relate). Ask any Korean or look at any video host site, this is such a popular film. There are many films that are MEANT to be popular and to achieve what "20" did, but did not at all, needless to name.

The only thing the other reviewer here got right who gave it 1 star was understanding their roles. Yes, they are immature, they're 20, and the film started off when they were portraying teenagers...horny, insecure teenagers. And they progressed into adulthood also as being horny and insecure but most people do that; no one immediately gets it right out of high school. I related to this film tremendously and I'm not male nor Korean! And I know many Koreans loved it. I just think the guy in these reviews was jealous of how successful the film is...It doesn't even need film reviews written here because the fans revel everywhere else.

Dong-woo is poor, struggling through college, single mom, no love life because women are interested but he pushes them away, knowing he's got nothing to offer. Sad, huh?

Kyung-jae is the narrator, fairly normal guy but in the middle class. He is the balance between his two best friends, the needed voice of reason.

Cha Chi-ho is a spoiled party boy in a family of rich business and this was no accident in the film so why is the guy writing in this section angry...? He was supposed to be a moron, everyone in the film called him that so calling the film moronic is futile! But his role was meant to be a light-hearted comic relief since Korean films have a rule that every film needs at least one sad, tragic moment. They mocked those sad moments constantly through the film though such downfalls were added in throughout. I feel his sating and comedic scenes carried the movie though the other actors/actresses and scenes were still featuring popular talent and satisfying moments.

Their characters and looks are rather quintessential to Korean films, (which the other poor viewer must be new to), and especially films meant to be popular among teens and young adults, and it was.

The main thing I didn't like was the girl Kyung-jae liked, those parts were kind of boring to be honest but not necessarily poorly done; I just wanted to get to sexy Kim Woo-bin's parts.

The main thing I loved was the ending scene, the last 10 minutes, it was funny and beautiful. Mainly because the rest of the film delicately added up to that final climactic moment and the epilogue which was sweet.

They also didn't exactly mature, because that would be miraculous. What they did though was gain optimism, with each other and new relationships and career pursuits, though still with bumps in the road, but that's OK, because they have a stronger friendship/brotherhood, and a better outlook on life! How can you not love that?

one of the worst Korean films so far reviewed in 2015. shallow and stupid screenplay that formulaicly depicted three cool-wannabe Koreans young men who proved the ultimate failure under the Korean education system. what we got here are three imbecile-like young men who got no heart, no conscience and no shame for what they did to other people. they are so pretentious, so childishly stupid keep doing immature things that they thought to be cool, yet at the same time only showed their shallowness and heartless cruelty. you could never imagine that young men who already reached twenty would be still so shallow and so stupid. the main actor who played the alpha male moron is one of the worst young actors who never know how to act normally, only by pretentiousness and exaggeration constantly.

the Korean young guys' hairdos are the most incomprehensible myth to me. their hairdo with the front covering almost all the area of their foreheads and thinking that's cool and would make them look more attractive to girls is one more proof how they are so shallow. are all the Korean young guys got scars on their foreheads where the only way to cover those scars is combing down their hairs to cover up their foreheads?

the leading young actor is the worst possible candidate who choose acting being his career, yet almost in all of his films so far, all he did was acted with pretentiousness and exaggeration, not a natural actor with enough acting talent.

the shallow screenplay almost got me sick during the ongoing of this film. what we got was no fun but disgust to the extreme. by reaching twenty years of age yet still decided refusing to become more mature, taking more responsibilities to themselves and treating other people with basic respect only sealing themselves as certified lifetime losers.

the first step not to fall into this category is to comb up their hairs, allowing their foreheads facing their future clearly.

to all the Asian young men trying so hard to imitate these Korean's hairdos/hairstyles: don't do it, cos it only makes you look like morons.

A film about normal people, which shows an absurd insight from the point of view of hormone-driven guys. One would argue that the film cannot be taken seriously because it is presented grotesquely. But this is not so. The film shows some characters that are also found in reality, only in an exaggerated way.

What is the message behind it? What I understand at least.

It's normal to want to be immature and this can be for different reasons. On the one hand, because you haven't found yourself yet, on the other hand, because you had to grow up way too fast. Or even too little self-confidence and this is associated with fear to continue.

Then we were told in the same way that it's okay to make mistakes and no matter how stupid they may be, behind our backs are the right people.

Another part of the story is that people with poor backgrounds have it hard, not only do they grow up faster, but also have to give up their dreams most of the time to provide security for their loved ones.

The platonic relationship between the boys is very strong, although they don't know how to express their feelings, but when one of them is sad, all of them suffer and then they are unrestrained when it comes to showing their feelings openly.

They behave like little children because they have the soul of a child, at least in part because the other is perverted.

An authentic film that makes you laugh, but also makes your face contort in disgust. Funny, isn't it? But thus gives its own charisma.
