Min-joon is a believer in true love and always very dedicated to her current boyfriend. Distracted by the latest break-up, she bumps into a car and a man steps out of it - who turns out to be her new boss, Robin Heiden. Heiden has very clear ideas about a relationship and love: both are a game of power and Min-Joon seeks advice from him, as she doesn't want to get dumped again. However, when she starts to treat men like Heiden treats women, she realizes that she prefers her older behaviour, even if that means that she gets dumped again; she doesn't see love as a game of power and never will. Heiden, who has to deal with his own heartbreak, as he loved a woman so much that she had to shoot him to get the message across that she wasn't interested in him, starts to soften at Min-joon's attitude towards life. He eventually falls in love with her and both get into a real relationship and a happy ending of their own.

it's one of the worst movies i'd ever seen , especially when it comes to south Korean movies which are so enjoyable . the 2 actor's chemistry was horrible , the acting was superficial , everything was in the wrong place , it's the only South Korean movie that i didn't like so far , there is nothing to say about it , it's just : "waste of time" and my rating is : 1 on 5
I had never heard of this film. This film kinda reminded me of He Is Not That Into You. Like in that movie(HINTIY), Min-jun is not relationship savvy. She tries her best,but the harder she tries, it just seems to push them away. In comes Mr Robin Heiden who is not so nice in giving her unwanted advice in all things she is doing wrong. I found this film funny, tender and the romance sprinkled through out the film in such a perfect way that each time those moments came, they took my breath away. I suggest that someone please write something more current for Daniel Henney(playing Robin Heiden in the film, he is such a delight to watch. I couldn't wait for this film to be over, just so that I could see it again ;-P
Korean movies has made a stellar rise in quality in the 21st century much like the way Hong Kong movies did in the '80s. This movie is one of the best example of these excellent Korean movies.A very likely story of a girl going through love troubles, and a very unlikely story of her getting involved with the head of her company comprises the plot of this funny, and very well made movie. The movie has drama, comedy, romance, and good acting. Production is super clean and each scene has opulence to it.The drama, and romance is as good or better than any Hollywood movies produced. It's envious that people of Korea can contemplate on making a movie with romance like this. This movie is a must see if you are an Asian drama, or a romantic comedy fan.
This is a fantastic movie. An out and out Mills & Boon romance with a dash of comedy keeps us entertained from the first scene to the end. Superb direction by Sang-Woo Kim (Nominated for this pic for the Best Director - Grand Bell Award.) Great cinematography. Fantastic acting by the hero, Daniel Henney (nominated for this pic in the Best New Actor category), as the (ultimate, M&B hero) boss and Jeong-hwa Eom as his Analyst Assistant who is a softie when it comes to love and is a prime candidate for being dumped by her boyfriends.The chemistry by the two leading actors is as excellent as the chemistry between Richard Gere and Julia Roberts in Pretty Woman. A must see movie for all Mills & Boon readers and Romance movie fans. Go fall in love!!!!!!!
