This is not about just numbers, it is about how a meek and intelligent person can do crazy stuff and sacrifice everything, do everything for someone he loves. As the Proverbs say, heart is the most deceitful of all!
Now you can watch how a genius can plot in hiding a murder, irony of all, his best buddy is a detective! this is very exciting movie, guys, this is so thrilling! dont worry this is not bloody violent movie, it focuses more on emotions and intelligence. It is somewhat you are doing your own Holmes investigation, thinking, what is actually happened!
I only get the picture at the end! and it gives me goosebumps and at the same time I cried!
Now watch it and see what i mean! rewatch? YES!!!!

It is mixed with hilarious scene, a little romance, friendship, overcoming fear and most of all, uniting because of one purpose. It gives lessons in life and sportsmanship.
In every scene going to the end part, it was so intensed that I am always on my toes! it's like watching a favorite basketball or football game where the two teams competing each other was just one point difference!
I learned a few things in this movie about the situation and laws between North and South Korea and I really appreciate it.
I like the pacing, the music, the actors were really good at their characters, there's no dull moments. I cried at the last scene especially when they are showing the "true" pictures of those "real" athletes.
I highly recommend this movie even to those no sports movie fan like me.

This movie is awesome and I love this much! This silent movie is so nerve wrecking (in good way) and geesh, it leaves a great impact to me! I thank MDL's Winnie19 for featuring this to her profile BG and recommending this, just wow!
All the setting, the body language, the story and those unnerving stealthily actions/scene of the male lead, it's so beyond!
I love it and highly reco guys!

I really laughed my ass off at the end, especially the kissing scene at the wedding ceremony. When I learned that this is based on true story, I said, "Whoa, that's why I can relate into it!"
A must watch!

Drama Special Season 2: Hwapyeong Princess's Weight Loss

I learned in this movie that, no one is a winner in getting revenge and so it's true about "If you plan to have a revenge, make two graves." And forgiveness is still the best thing to do.
I like this movie, it is very entertaining, especially the "rap song", those wacky acting of the female lead. I cried too at the climax of the movie where the princess confronted her estranged husband.
All in all, you can learn something from this. Some may not approve on the ending but, in real life, some are just forgiving and loving their someone significant that way.

The movie is heavy, serious, not tear jerker but you'll feel down, you can feel the sadness, regrets, lost and pain the characters are portraying in the verge of divorcing. IF you dont pay too much attention and do not feel what it is, you wont appreciate the movie. If you just got out of breakup, then don't watch it because you may relate into it and you might cry (hehe).
In my opinion, they perfectly portrayed it, no matter how the male lead wants to go back things as they were (he decided to move his office in the basement of the house so he can be with her since he's been working all day till night---car scene) things won't be the same. It is true that some, or mostly women, when they get tired, fed up and already find somebody new (in this case, she cheated on him, and he admitted that he is also to blame, he neglected his wife), it's too late to mend a broken relationship, and it is very seldom that a woman will change her mind and heart (to be back in their marriage again), and the guy is correct, "Getting mad won't change anything.".. You can feel the sadness, the regrets, the wishes but things in reality are not that easy. And I think this movie have best showed that not all relationship that is undergoing "rocky road" will have happy ending.
The cinematography is great, it was able to portray the dark and down emotions, the large and beautiful house became dark, with some roof problems (rain is pouring to some spot)...Personally, I like the movie, some may not appreciate it, but I like it, I felt it.

I find it amusing while watching this movie. It is no difference, no matter what gender you are, when competition is tight, everything is possible. The story is unique and I am quite fascinated seeing the fashionable Edo's trend in wearing their kimonos, specially the men with their Furisode and Sokutai, they are like Barbie doll types. It feels like while watching this, you have gone back from the old days, seeing them sitting in tatami mats floored room in Nihon Jutaku (Japanese styled houses). It is refreshing to see the old custom, culture of Japan, especially for western people watching the movie. Though it will only take less than 6 hours (by plane) going in Japan since it is a neighbor country (north part of Philippines), still this is not an everyday (and modern) setting, thus, it is fascinating to watch.
Though I am not anymore shock knowing the "man to man" relationship of Japan men, not because of the modern times, but it's been part of Japan culture if you read some of their history. I really love the cinematography, the story, the characters and the actors. They did a great job.

It is my first time to watch a movie that both main leads are switch in gender, yes, it is gender bender movie with good plot.
The leads are beautiful, yep, even the male lead is "pretty", the reason why he is always mistaken for a "girl". It is not a surprise seeing a man fangirling over a man, or girls over a girl, it is a natural trend (I think that's a unique taste among Asian), and it is not weird. Because myself, I am also fangirling over a girl but I am a 100% straight, check out Touya Hibiki and you'll know what I mean.
The story is refreshing, romantic, funny and it has charms. It also show one or two character of Asian, being jealous and possesive (see how the admirer confronted Mizuki scene and Akira's admirers over Kiss issue).
In this movie, they also showed the modern fashions of Japanese people, those lolita trends, punk, pop culture and so on.
Overall, it is an entertaining movie.

I was surprised listening to the songs used in the movie, especially at romantic scenes, it is American songs. It is funny watching that the male lead Jo Han Sun's business is lingerie, he is so manly, how awkward is that?
I laughed so hard in every scenes, it is so funny. I love it.
The movie from other site has a different name, it is also called "Sweet Lies", when I browse it there to check mirror availability.

In our country, when someone is undergoing hardship, like studying, you also nosebleed, this is a joke when brain is about to explode! That's why I can really relate it when they made it as a joke too for this movie when Tae-Il nosebleed almost everyday because he study hard. I am so laughing so hard especially when he is so childish as to believing Tae-il's father promises to marry her daughter to him then delay it again for some reasons.
It has some butt exposures, fighting (as high school bully life have) and some words are not appropriate for young audience. But it is entertaining and romantic also. From the start until the end I am laughing so hard. Maybe not all will appreciate this kind of comedy but I do. I enjoyed it!

It is very entertaining and yet I don't think it is rated PG at it has some sensitive scenes. I really like the role of the girl here, she's a inventor, so cool for her as a woman.
I love it, it's very entertaining!

I love this movie because it's full of fun and the chasing game at the start, the kissing scene were so cute, I really love when Song (lead male) blushes haha. Jung is full of energy and I really love her acting here.
Song is really good in here as bad boy yet have a kind heart, I really like it when he is showing his protectiveness. there are also fight scenes as that's a high school life, those embarassing moments, crazy stuff you do, you can relate to it.
Over all, I really had fun watching it!

The clothes, the designs, those fashionistas out there will surely love this movie. It's a good movie, about knowing yourself, about achieving dreams, fighting for what you like and finding love!
Well, it's a school themed movie, showcasing schools in Japan, the hardships of each students, about friendships. I really like it, and hearing that the anime is good to check too, I think I will.

I like the movie, it is not just entertaining, it also shows how brave the men could be in saving their people, friends, village and also, showcasing Japanese old Ninja technique from the old period.
The kicking, the fighting scene, the blade chasing and shooting were so awesome. Even if maybe you are not into action movie, you will appreciate it. They show the details of each move but not as detailed as Rorouni Kenshin but it is almost the same.
It's very entertaining especially with the scene when the ninjas possessed by the alien's baby speaking English!!! it's actually a funny scene, so guys, better watch this out. Gaijin invade Japan???? haha I think it's a joke, of all the language, why English? haha...
Also guys watch the last fighting scene, it's so funny and incredible, it's not only about blades, it's also fighting like wrestling, boxing,grappling, eating ears!!! name it!! so hilarious!!! will rewatch it again!!

Yes it is hilarious but at the end it is moving, how the two realize each others feelings, how the husband realize why his wife is like that and all. You will learn something about this movie. It is absurd that the husband did it, but you may understand why he is desperate to divorce her, well still he is a nice man.
If you like to have a light mood and want to laughed your ass, then watch this movie and get touch at the end!
