K-movie Feels:
- A pretty fun movie with the ending being the best part.
- Lee Soo Hyuk’s character here is very unlikeable but I can’t bring myself to hate him, he looked too good to be hated.
- Seo In Guk is a snack in this movie, looking so dashingly handsome and I love his hairstyle here.
- Overall the acting was really good. It was fun to see Seo In Guk and Lee Soo Hyuk acting as hard enemies.
- I enjoyed watching this movie. I really like the camaraderie feelings that I got in this show.
- Give it a try if you are looking for something light.
My Rating – 8.5/10 (This is a pretty good movie to watch.)
