Much better than its prequel, which is something rare. Still Kim Bum as Lee Rang is the best and cutest part of the story, but also Kim So Yeon as the quirky, bad*ss Ryu Hong Joo is definitely on par, if not better!
An old-fashioned, simple but very cute office romance with two adorably awkward leads in an angst-free character development/love story. Yamada Ryosuke's smile was a ray of sunshine, addicting and uplifting, perfect for a stress-free watch after a long & tiring working day.
High on adrenaline, heavy on politics, this based on true events story is a tense political and survival thriller with a good production and great veterans cast.
Dated, exaggerated and very predictable, with many cliches and flat characters. As much as I like Zo In Sung, this is definitely not one of his best works.
Not an avid fan of this genre, but I had to watch this because of the star cast. A historical film, based on real events and people, describing the epic 88 days long defense battle of Yang Manchun leading his outnumbered Goguryeo troops at the Ansi Fortress against the invading Tang dynasty. Fast-paced, action-packed, with impressive cinematography, visuals and cgi enhanced fighting sequences, and stunning warfare tactics, strategies and machinations, though the characters were rather underdeveloped and the storytelling quite simple. Not a masterpiece, but an entertaining watch.
A great informative and touching life story cycle of a lovable, dedicated and hard-working guide dog. No sappily forced emotional, nothing overdramatic, just realistically cute and heartwarming. No matter if you are a dog person or not, you'll love this wonderful four-legged gentleman!
A delicate, gentle love story full of cuteness, warmth and caring, with lots of comfort food, precious healing moments and the best supportive family: Tane, that little cutie pie, and his dad, the coolest and most discreet cupid.
An action-packed drama with top-notch production, stellar cast, awesome fighting choreographies and fast-paced editing. The story wasn't something memorable, the plot had some noticeable weak parts and the characters could've been better fleshed out, but the brotherhood, camaraderie and found-family vibes were enough to keep me entertained. Woo Do Hwan and Lee Sang Yi were great in their roles and their chemistry and sync were what made this drama an enjoyable watch.
A short, fast-paced family drama with an unorthodox concept and approach, unbalanced pacing and tone, many cheesy moments, but surprisingly some heartwarming and cute ones too. Nothing memorable, just an easy watch.
A heartwarming, fulfilling family drama with a great balance of comic, sad, cute, action and slice-of-life moments, divided equally in many different subplots beautifully interwoven. A great cast, well-written characters with engaging interactions, and a proper closure for all. Ra Mi Ran with her fantastic performance was the heart and soul of this story, its driving force and its greatest asset. Lee Do Hyun did a great job with his demanding 'dual' role and proved that he is a young actor that must be taken seriously, while the twins and the yakuza lady were the cutest people and this drama's trademarks.
Nothing new or memorable from this average romantic dramedy. But, it has Shin Min Ah and Zo In Sung in their first leading movie roles, both so young & cute and looking good together - and that counts for something!
A compelling neo-noir story of friendship, loyalty, love, ambition and betrayal, through the rise and fall of a low-level gangster. Dark, violent, full of cruelty, scheming and corruption, with gripping cinematography, fast-paced editing, well-fitting music and a top cast that made the rather predictable plot a great watching experience. Undoubtedly, the best asset of this movie is its anti-hero protagonist, Byung Du, fantastically performed by talented Zo In Sung.
An interesting, unusual coming-of-age and coming-out story about two high school classmates: Jun, a closeted gay and Sae, a closeted fujoshi. Though it had its flaws, such as a lot of stereotyping, a conveniently manga-ish approach of some issues, some far-fetched arcs and solutions and a heavy entertainment orientation, it managed to leave a good impression, mainly due to Kamio Fuju's convincing performance and charms.
A raw, extremely triggering and violent film about a runaway schoolgirl, emotionally and mentally unstable, in her quest for an abortion and the pact she forms with three young misfits she meets during her journey. The tone is intentionally bleak and the approach purposely shocking, with the four young adults depicted as both the victims and the perpetrators, while all the adult characters are always shown trying to exploit the youth. Though her portrait isn't fully developed, her intentions and actions are never fully explained, and her interactions with her 'friends' are lacking depth, Lee Yoo Mi's performance was the best advantage of this messy and depressing movie.
I was expecting more from this movie, with this cast and filmmaker. It's not bad, but not as good as I expected: the plot was intriguing but too convoluted, the characters and subplots were too many to be fully developed but, most of all, the stupidity, selfishness and sexism of the police force were way too much to digest. The best part was the real antihero of the story, the wolfdog.
A short drama about daily trips and encounters, with delicious food, magnificent scenery beautifully shot, relaxing music, interesting conversations and quirky inner thoughts. Lee Na Young was so natural performing this charming and relatable character that fitted her like glove. A feel-good, soothing, emotional and healing experience and a breath of fresh air among the usual complex, angsty and demanding kdramas. Highly recommended!
