<멋진 하루> 'My Dear Enemy' Movie Review

Image
    As a big fan of actress Jeon Do-yeon, I've always wanted to watch this movie, since she acknowledged this one as her favorite film she appeared in. I wondered why, since this film isn't as famous as her other movies like <Secret Sunshine> and <The Housemaid>. But after finally seeing <My Dear Enemy>, it actually became my favorite as well!   The title of this movie made me feel confused before seeing the movie. The Korean title is <Great Day>, whereas the English title is <My Dear Enemy>. I wondered, did they really have make the title so different? But after seeing the movie, those two titles actually felt similar. They give off a certain vibe, and I figured that maybe the director wanted to preserve that vibe in two ways. After all, I noticed, 'great' and 'dear' are not so different.   The movie stars two top star actors; Jeon Do-yeon and Ha Jung-woo. Without them, the movie might have been a complete fiasco. Because their act...

<선산> 'The Bequeathed' Drama Review

Image
  A mystery show on Netflix. Seo-ha's life turns into horror when she unexpectedly inherits a burial ground from her uncle whom she didn't even know existed. She begins to feel threatened by all kinds of people around her aiming for the land's money worth. The police isn't much help. Meanwhile weird events keep happening when Seo-ha has no one to rely on.    The show is overall dark and gloomy, but definitely fascinating. Due to unexpected twists, the show succeeded in maintaining suspense throughout the story. And it was great to watch the reunion of actors Park Hee-Soon and Kim Hyun-Joo; they previously starred in Trolley together. Created by Train To Busan 's director Yeon Sang-Ho, the show has only 6 episodes and is quite interesting to watch.  I had low expectations for the show, but to my surprise it turned out to be the best show I've seen recently. A fine discovery! Review : So dark the human mind.

<드림> 'Dream' Movie Review

  Sports movies are surprisingly rare these days. They have their own strength in that they induce joy, thrill, excitement, fulfillment, and a bunch of other positive feelings. This movie was made by a renowned, young director Lee Byung-hun and stars famous actors Park Seo-jun, IU(Lee Ji-eun), Lee Hyun-woo, and so on.    Hong-dae is a famous soccer player, but things didn't go well for him. He has to play a role as the coach of a soccer team of homeless people. And the whole process is to be filmed into a documentary by a producer So-min. Hong-dae and So-min both start this project just for personal interests, but as time passes, they begin to work together to actually make the homeless people's lives better.   The movie shone much more than I had anticipated, as I thought that it would be like a typical sports movie. But there was definitely something special about it, and it took some time to figure out what it was.   <Dream> was special because while wa...
