Default (2018)

Edge of your seat the entire movie! Wow

[10/10 · 21 March 2019]

Very well done, compelling movie, that challenges one to consider what is the roll of: financial policy, credit in an economy, labor policies, foreign investment, and about 10 other strong economic related motifs and crisis management amid a market collapse in the late 1990's.

The movie elegantly mixes in macro and micro story-lines so you consider/see a series of events unfolding at all levels, to consider the different sides.

It's well worth a watch if you enjoy econ/financial movies

On Your Wedding Day (2018)

Beautiful, funny, witty, rather profound K RomCom, a must watch!

[10/10 · 26 October 2018]

Wow.. what an amazing k-romcom movie, that sounds like an empty platitude, but it is not... You will laugh, you will cry, you will be reminded of youth, coming of age and what happens when dreams don't go as planned.

This is yet another well crafted, well scripted, character developed movie that is nothing short of amazing. Kim Young-kwang is so captivating, he steals the show! The motifs are strong, and relate-able: unrealized potential, unrequited love, bad timing, regret , yet coupled with hope, dreams, passion, and what to fight for... it really is a beautiful movie...

Zero Point Five Love (2014)

[10/10 · 2 June 2018]

I Can Speak (2017)

A+ Movie, get the tissues ready... you will cry..

[10/10 · 14 May 2018]

What starts as a surface level comedy genre movie about a Grandmother, quickly develops and turns out in fact to be a deep and historical drama about WW2 war crimes.

The film does an excellent job of weaving together many strong themes about courage, determination, language barrier, and optimistically reminding us that its never to late in life to learn, and we should always fight for whats what, and speak up.

Its a very powerful movie, that will move even the coldest of hearts to tears. Stellar performances by both leads. A+ movie all around.

Luck-Key (2016)

Charming and Witty Body Swap Comedy/Action that is a must watch

[10/10 · 24 September 2017]

Don't let the display photo fool you.. this is a topnotch A grade comedy action and even a bit romance drama.. that is a absolute must watch!

The depth of the two female and males leads is astounding. You will be entertained, you will laugh, you might even tear up at one part, and you will to the characters plights, and be inspired to make a change. There is always deeper meaning in a movie if you look for it, and that is easily true of this gem of a movie.

The storyline is rich with charm and a plot you haven't seen before.. they simply don't make good movies like this anymore in the USA.. thank you Korea!

My Sassy Girl (2001)

Charming, funny, rather profound romcom that is a must see!!

[10/10 · 16 January 2017]

Absolutely beautiful movie that is a hands down must watch!

Don't let the first five min deter you. This is charming, funny, yet actually deep movies. It explores grief, sympathy, love, understanding, how to be a friend, and helping those in need. It playfully reminds you about your youth, growing up, dealing with pain and sorrow and many other strong motifs. I found it rather profound for a rom com. Korean scripting and acting is just top notch in this, and the sound track is equally as powerful.

I burst out laughing many times, cried a few, and enjoyed nearly ever min of this fabulous K-drama/romcom. a must watch

In Between (2012)

Adorable and Witty Romcom TV show, a must see

[10/10 · 3 January 2017]

Both leads in this fun loving, easy to watch, laugh out loud comedy steal the show !

As an English speaking native reading the sub-titles I am simply in love with this show! Each character contains many relatable traits, and the show is edifying and adorable all the right moments. Accurately conveys trials and tribulations that everyone goes through, and how we all tend to play games and fantasize and romanticize some things we shouldn't. Getting older and growing up and balancing that with ones life's goals in another motif in the show. For a romcom, it's rather complex and detailed, making it even more impressive. even after its translated, i find myself laughing out loud a few times a show, and veryyy funny one liners in this as well, charming and fun.

They don't make quality feel good shows like this anymore. great acting, a no-brainer, watch it 1
