Syoo-peo-maen-i-sseo-deon sa-na-i (2008)

Song Soo-jung is a producer whose specialty is human interest stories. She dreams of one day becoming KoreaÂ’s own Oprah Winfrey. However, she is reaching the end of whatÂ’s left of her pride. After months of not getting paid, she leaves her office with the company camera to produce a story on a lion refusing to eat its meal. On her way, however, she comes across a robber, but she is saved by Â“SupermanÂ” in a Hawaiian shirt. This Â“SupermanÂ” tells her the unfortunate circumstance he has been put in by his enemies, and how it limits his powers. Soo-jung sees this as a good opportunity for another one of her pieces, and films a documentary with some fabrications, but later learns whatÂ’s truly important in life

Mankind in a Perspective View

I saw this movie as a Social-Cultural movie. And i liked it. Other users hated it because he expected another kind of movie... more comedy than drama. It's a drama movie, showing a different (covered) perspective view of the society. We have changed: in spite of economic progress, we are more selfish, we (still) have a short-term view of global warming/contamination, etc. And it shows while Song Soo-Jung (Ji-Hyun Jun) captures her neighbor behavior (Jeong-Min Hwang) for her documentary.

It's a simple good movie (if your expectation is to watch a Drama movie), great performance (as usual) of both leading actors, with average photography and direction.
