It feels like a cartoon , not a movie.
Funny, casual and predictable.
But, I could enjoy watching the whole movie. Because, 3 protagonists are totally adorable. It worth watching.

Though Covid-19 beats the theater screening, I, on the side of the audience, like the situation a bit because of a lot of small movies and re-released masterpieces. If there were no pandemic, I wonder how this movie is scored and evaluated.
This movie seems not as good as much as I expected. It is full of cliche-ridden lighting and editing. I like the way that they harvest the MacGuffins, but the purse of the story's development is somewhat messy.
I'm really sorry to say to the staff, ironically, I prefer the video that three main actors sing the song "What's the matter" in Yu Huiyel's Sketchbook.
The best part of what I like is the balance of the characters. No one stands out but there's a suitable tension between them to lead the development.
Sometimes, I used to feel tired in self-purification of society. I'm getting used to getting rid of it or running away. There is a Korean proverb that if a monk doesn't like the temple, he needs to leave. This movie makes me repeat the verse. Why does the monk have to leave? Is it okay even if the temple is filled with villains? This movie throws a pebble into the calm lake of my mind.

I really like the three female leads and the plot of trying to uncover and reveal their company's hidden dark side is incredible!!! In a time where life is hard for working women, they really shine in their own way. I also enjoy their friendship.
Korean drama about big business impact on community... and the fight of the loyal employees to keep the company honest and reliable!
Gorgeous ladies, simple characters, screenplay sometimes gets lost in it owns imperfections, directing pretty ordinary for a Korean movie... but I still enjoyed it!

Whole package includes criticism of social problems existing in the 90s, complex organizational scandals, thrilling problem-solving processes of three main characters, and even a gripping turn of events. 'Samjin Group, English Class' tackles almost all social issues: gender inequality, environmental damage from conglomerates, overflow of foreign capitals, not just lightly but with some depth. I have to complement the writing of the film. It approaches the core of the problem step by step, and the process of it is not slow or boring. It's cute, funny, and absorbing; it gives meaning and message at the same time. The ending is weak and loses reality too much to come back to reality. Before the ending, the writing lures the audience into the 90s that the film created because the narrative is interesting and gripping, and they could forgive and forget that some of the main characters' behavior is unrealistic.
