    A Perfect Blend

    Love in the Big City is a delightful romantic comedy that absolutely shines in every way. From the opening scene to the final moments, it had me hooked with its captivating storyline, witty humor, and lovable characters. Love in the Big City does an amazing job of balancing heartwarming romance with moments of laugh-out-loud comedy, creating a feel-good experience from start to finish.

    Love in the Big City is a fantastic rom-com that hits all the right notes! The chemistry between the leads is undeniable, It's a must-watch that will leave you with a big smile and a warm heart. Absolutely 5 stars!

    Kindred Spirits Explore the Recklessness of Youth and Young Love

    Love in the Big City is a serendipitous encounter that brings two kindred spirits who teeter on the fringes of normative culture together, exploring friendship, sexuality, and the comfort of being themselves at a pivotal time in their young adulthoods. An enjoyable, sometimes funny, trek through early twenties rebellion of vices, dating, hooking up, partying, and growing up. Ours protagonists find themselves both escaping from and finding paths of self exploration and reflection. Great to see two very talented actors, Kim Go-eun and Steven Sang-hyun Noh, on the same screen giving all of their energy to these free spirited characters.

    this is a fantastic romantic comedy for 2024 from Korea

    I really appreciate how much heart and thought went into this wonderful story between these two kindred individuals. They lived through so much time during college and after college and stayed together as best of friends. I don't think I could ask for anything more from such a wonderful Korean romantic drama. I really appreciated the inter play between the characters and all the ups and downs they shared. I wish there were more romantic comedies that were brought to the US market that were as good as this film. The backdrop of Seoul Korea really added to the film. I look forward to seeing this on blu-ray when it is released for the US market.

    A movie about friendship and love

    I know that this movie was adapted from the novel of the same name and since I didn't read the novel, I won't be comparing them. I enjoyed this movie because the development of Jae Hee and Heung-soo's friendship was well written, and the actors playing them have just the right chemistry to make it work. The story is centered around their friendship and before either of them found romantic love, they found each other. Two outcasts who found comfort and refuge in each other, they became each other's biggest support. Their characters also developed along the way as they grew mature and entered the working world, but their friendship stayed the same. And let's not forget that Heung-soo is a gay man, and in a society as conservative as the one in South Korea, I think this movie is good representation for the LGBT community because it shows the struggles that the LGBT community faces, and that there is absolutely nothing wrong with being a gay person who just wants to love and be loved.

    This taught me well about a different type of love, and it's so sincere!

    The chemistry, the way of the two main actors develop and present their characters, the set, the plot twist, and of course the message they want to spread are so deep and cool! I cried and laughed while watching this, and I was drowning and carried away by the story and acting.

    • This is NOT a romance that you can usually find in the romance movie, BUT you can definitely enjoy the learning process from the story
    • This movie shows us the point of view from discredited people, so there will be some heartbreaking scene that i personally think for those common people that usually tend to be ignorant should be more aware and embrace more
    • love is about peace, you can learn here.
