100 Days with Mr. Arrogant (2004)

For me, this started as an amusing show until the pacing of the story got too fast. I understand that they skipped a lot of time, but I just didn't really like how everything was shown so suddenly. The story's flow became... jumpy, instead of being smooth. The ending is nice, in my opinion, although not too great. For a 2004 film, I guess this is a fair one. Knowing that A Moment to Remember was released on the same year, though, makes me feel kinda disappointed in this one.

Watching this film of Ha Ji Won made me realize that she has really improved her acting. I consider her acting here as good, though. She's cute and all in the movie although her character's a silly girl. I think Kim Jae Won's acting here is good, too, despite his character being silly as well. He managed to pull off that "arrogant, rich guy" look.

I didn't pay much attention to the music.

It would probably take time -- and I mean a reaaaaally loooong time -- before I re-watch this.

A 6 from me. It could be entertaining to watch (despite some gross scenes). Anyone could give this a try if he just wants to kill a lot of time.

I truly loved the story, from watching dramas and manga the story wasn't that unusual but still unique. IN this day t=with so many movies u can't exacly expect something really new can u. The movie was disgusting at the times but even those moments were absolutely hilarious. Loved all the cute and romance moments in the film, it shows a story of people who you don't really meet as their personalities were seriously odd. It's just a simple and short romance comedy movie with a great story. Don't care what others thought I really enjoyed this film and absolutely love it!!! Highly recommend.

I remember I watched it because of the high score it had in my usual movie site.
I must say I didn't regret watching it. It was amusing, fun and cute. The usual love story where the characters start by hating each other (nothing new if you already are an asian movie/drama addict).
It's perfect if you are in a good mood and want to watch something amusing and light.

It's been years since I watched this but I remember I was a little taken by the fashion in the movie and the poor quality of hair and scenery (something you will strange if you already seen some recent movie or korean dramas).

I don't give it high rewatchable value but still a good watch.

This is my first review so bare with me.

The story line was easy to follow and everything pulled together nicely.

The main lead was cute, but I didn't think he was as attractive as the plot line made him out to be. He had that boyish looks. As for the female lead, she was spunky and fun to watch/ She was by far my favorite character.

The chemistry between the leads was good. I enjoyed their banter the most. I felt that through the course of the story you really could see the female lead really mature.

The one thing that bugged me was the last few minutes of the show. I think it was unnecessary that's for sure.

Re- watch value, eh I have watched it twice , but I don't think Its from I would keep going back to watch over and over again.

Not What I Expected or Wanted

Whenever I pick a movie I go into it expecting to love it otherwise why pick it?

The plot was my type; jerk rich guy who ultimatey falls for the girl he's treating like crap. The cast was ok but I actually didn't find the ML that attractive and the FL was actually too good for him IMO. That being said, I also feel like there was no real development for the 2 of them to actually fall in love. It seemed like the FL was in love with him from the get go and I did't like that. When she found out he was scamming her she challenged him and then immdiately backed down. I didn't like that either!! The ending was rushed and still didn't lead me to believe the relationship was real.

The disappointment ultimately falls on me. I thought the movie was going to be way cuter and I was going to root for the 2 leads but I really didn't like either one of them.

There are also, way too many gross out scenes 2 of the most agregious were the teacher and the booger and the girl who spit in 2 peoples face. That girl would have been dead where I come from!!!

First thing to say: I know this is a 2004 movie, and I have to take this into consideration, but there are old movies that are always good and new movies that are bad. It depends on many things, but the plot is important.

The story on itself is ok, a bit clichê but is nice. The acting is ok too.

But the relationship between them, a very weird and kinda toxic one I have to say, plus the fact the girl is too young for him (it's illegal, bro), and the master plot that the fact she assigned a contract to be his SLAVE, makes me feel strange watching it.
The romantic scenes are nice, but the context in those this "couple" are, again, it's weird.

And in addition, the very very huge trash humor almost make me stop the movie and cancel watching it a lot of times.

I scored it 6/10, but I'm not sure if this show deserve this classification, cause it's one of the worst things I have watched in my life.

This was one of the first Korean movies I've watched and sadly I was not really impressed. I don't think that what attracted me to watch this movie was the summary, I think the title itself was promising since I was in that romantic, girly, ''rich guy meets poor girl'' phase. But what really made me watch the movie was its lead actress Ha Ji Won. I have just finished watching King2hearts and just loved her acting. I understand that this was a movie probably made in the earliest stages of her career but it was just the cheesiest movie possible. She is the only reason I am giving the acting section 5.5. I didn't particularly like Kim Jae Won. I saw no tempting chemistry between the two. I also think any possible good music or acting for all it matters, was overshadowed by this corny story that was not good at all. For me, this is one of those movies that I will never watch again unless I get drunk or deadly bored and accidentally click on it.

This one definitely did not suit my taste.

A fun movie with good acting. If you are looking for something light and funny then this is exactly what you want. both the leads enjoyed their roles and that shows in their acting. A jerk who made her slave for 100 days and a stubborn girl who fall for him without hesitation. that's how the story starts but then twists and situations make the plot more presentable.
Development of characters is prominent and you feel their chemistry. Music is not that much presentable and some scenes are really gross. the drawback of this movie is its totality. when you connect the plot with acting and music you expect something unique and more enthusiastic as this is a love story of teen which is symbol of blossom romance but that is missing here.
If you want something funny with beautiful faces then go for it
