Ever since I heard that Lee Min Ki was in this movie, I wanted to watch it! I've recently heard about him [like others] from his short role in Shut Up Flower Boy Band. He left me impressed and dazzled, wanting to see more of his works. After watching the trailer for this movie, I knew I was going to like it. Like others have stated, Spellbound is one of those movies that incorporates a lot of different genres. Horror and comedy? Can you really make a movie turn out good by using these two genres? This movie is proof of that. It had me laughing throughout more than half of it, but there were also those scenes that had me jumping from where I was sitting because I didn't expect something to happen. If you're someone who doesn't like scary movies, you might find a couple of these scenes to be scary. But there's also comedy that you wouldn't find in a typical horror flick. And romance on top of it! I'm not a big fan of horror films, I get jumpy easily and if I watch one at night before I go to bed - I can guarantee it'll take me hours to fall asleep unless I'm able to take my mind off of what I just saw. This movie is perfect for people who don't handle scary movies that well - because it leaves you not with a feeling of being scared but a feeling of calmness after it's all said and done. The acting is great! I mentioned already that I briefly saw Lee Min Ki in Shut Up Flower Boy Band and loved him here. He's a really good actor, he has this certain charm about him - I feel he can pull off any look or character and still do well. I haven't seen Son Ye Jin in anything, so I have nothing to compare it to. I feel she held her role here nicely. They both shared chemistry and the acting was done naturally. The music didn't really stand out too much to me in this movie. There was one song I briefly remember that had a nice sound, but nothing I'd listen to outside of the movie. I can definitely see myself watching this movie again. I loved it. It wasn't perfect, but it was done really well. Overall, I think this movie is worth watching. If you're looking for something with comedy and romance with a dash of horror - you got it. No really, it's worth watching, it might seem odd, weird, but once you start watching you get pulled in. Give it a try (: There's some really funny scenes!
