Storyline
The film tells the story of an elderly woman (played by Na Moon Hee) who constantly files complaints with the local office about the wrongs that she sees around her each day. Along the way, she forms an unlikely friendship with a junior civil service officer (played by Lee Je Hoon) who begins to teach her English. Though the film is a comedy, the genre serves as a vehicle to discuss the deeper topic of Korean comfort women during World War II. Written by subratjain1

The story of the movie is based on a true story talking about the comfort girls back in WWII.
The movie presented the plot perfectly and didn't show their cards up until the end where you can realize "Oh that what was these two old ladies talking about" :D
The comedy is fresh, quick and clever ,,, not the type where you fall on your back laughing but it is really sweet,, and what even made me write his is the ending , i suddenly found myself welling up by the heartwarming ending and how the story unraveled itself.
As for the cast, bravo,, both of the leads, the Old lady and the young man who teaches her english were amazing and well invested in their roles,, and sure the whole cast were good too.
Final thought ,, It is highly recommended , watch it now.
