This movie was not what i expected but in a good way. I like several things about it. First it wasn't a very long movie and the plot although not complex moves along very quickly. At first i thought it was ridiculous that her grandfather was insisting on her marrying a guy at least 5 years her senior WHILE she was in high school.But i guess it's a cultural thing (oppa??) There were some minor characters that i thought were very realistic in their responses to this potentially ridiculous situation. Her mom's reaction and resulting guilt was on point which left me to wonder about her dad , because he didn't seem to concerned at all. Her best friend did a good job at playing up the conflict she was experiencing in keeping her secret while wanting to do what was right. (and she has a great line while they are painting the mural :) That English teacher was HILARIOUS but i felt so bad for her lol u could smell the desperation through the screen she was the main source of comedy for me. Both leads are believeable in their roles and i honestly didn't expect the Bo Eun to start leading a double life and being so fiesty, i really enjoyed her performance (although i didn't always sympathize). Sang min was cute and i felt bad for him sometimes, since he seemed to be trying so hard and nothing seemed to be going right for him. The only real complaint i have about this movie is the lack of insight we get into the thoughts of the leads. We don't really know their back story or the depth of their relationship until the end. Through out the movie we don't get to see how they really feel about each other. Maybe this was the reason that i felt a bit uncomfortable with some of the scenes (like HUH? ,i didn't know he had those types of feelings...ewww). But in the end it all came together for me. An unexpected, light,funny romantic (ish) romp great for when you're on a drama break
