Hi, This is an interesting alternative view point movie in the vein of the 1987 movie Wish You Were Here with Emily Lloyd. Although I don't agree with the arranged marriage this movie is watchable and well made. Thanks :). God bless :). Aaron

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.

I never was a fan of Korean films, but this one, is a brilliant light comedy with a great cast, very sweet romantic plot and a great array of jokes. It is never getting cheesy or clichéd. Even the very simple love story of two teens getting married at their grandparent's' will, can get very thrilling and never boring. The actors do a great job and the school where much of the events take place looks so nice. Korea is a bit riddle to me here in Russia, but this sweet film opened the veil and showed that Koreans are common people with their sadness, sorrows joys, tears, tragedies and loves. The school is a nice place ti film it all, as it never gets banal or outward silly like in many American comedies of the same genre. having said this, I do recommend this excellent work to all who enjoy light-hearted comedies and the like

I enjoyed this movie, it was definitely fun to watch and I would recommend it to anyone who is interested in Korean language or culture, or just wants a good romantic comedy. This movie tells the story of two young people who are forced into arranged marriage because of the wish of a dying relative. It shows how the two deal with this situation that has happened against their will, and has many humorous moments showing the scrapes they both get into as they try to tolerate being around each other without fighting. However, this movie is not so amazing that I would want to own it, or re-watch it over and over. A bit too clichéd for me, as well some of the characters (namely Sangmin, the male lead) just didn't appeal to me, although I found Boeun to be very cute! If you're looking for a movie that stands apart as simply fantastic in this genre, I would suggest 'My Sassy Girl'.

8/10

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.
