great movie!!!, 22 May 2006
9/10
Author: from Canada

This is a great movie!!! I'm seeing some bad reviews about this movie on this site, but I think I know why (btw, I'm Korean). Among many Korean movies I've watched, I think this movie has a little more depth to it then some other Korean movies with simpler plots. This movie takes place in the southern region of South Korea, and about 95% of the dialogue is in southern dialect, meaning very unique and distinctive words/expressions which are very hard to translate in English while carrying the full intended meaning. For example, one of the ending lines of the movie quotes, "I will protect her until I paint the walls with my poop," in Korean (before translation) this is a very comical and meaningful line, but when translated in English as above, it sounds rather awkward than funny. In addition, there are parts in the movie which may seem very very strange and weird (or simply difficult to understand or find funny) to viewers who aren't Asian. Some parts of the movie may only be understandable to it's actually intended meaning if the viewer had lived in Asia(??) I have lived in Canada for over 8 years and can see the different perspectives of the Asian viewers and the other viewers on this movie. Anyways, I found this movie GREAT!!! and recommend it to any viewers looking to look (more) into Asian culture, or are willing to challenge themselves with trying to understand what the actors/plot actually mean, other wise I recommend other Korean comedies such as "my sassy girl" or "100 days with Mr.Arrogant". Thanks for reading my babbling, I hoped it didn't offend anyone, and I hope it helped you.
