My Tutor Friend

My tutor friend Genre: Comedy

Description:

The tutor is Choi Su-weon , a homely 21-year old English major who gives private lessons to high schoolers to cover her college tuition. Unfortunately, it is not the easiest way to earn a living. She quits her most recent teaching job after being sexually harassed by a couple of twelve-year olds, and reluctantly accepts an offer to tutor a high school student, a referral from one of her mother's rich friends. And as alluded to by the film's Korean title, Su-weon's new charge, Kim Ji-hun , is the same age as her, having failed the same grade twice.

As in any romantic comedy, Su-weon and Ji-hun are like oil and water at first. Ji-hun is a spoiled brat who has been brought back to Korea by his stern dad after screwing up while studying overseas. Unfortunately, it seems the experience has not changed his outlook, as he would rather sneak out and hang around with his airhead girlfriend Ho-kyung than hit the books with Su-weon. Furthermore, because she is the same age, Ji-hun shows little respect for his tutor by not showing up for lessons or insultingly referring to her as 'country chick'. But as determined as Ji-hun is to send away his unwanted tutor, Su-weon is equally unwavering in her attempts to break through his pigheadedness.

Surprise

Surprise Genre: Romantic Comedy

Description:

"Surprise," besides featuring three young women who "whine-talks" as a matter of course, is a rather tiresome film under the guise of a romantic comedy. When Ha-yeong's best friend Mi-ryeong asks her to pick up her boyfriend at the airport and stall him until she can convince her father to accept their union, Ha-yeong hesitantly agrees. Since the father remains adamantly opposed to Jeong-woo, who is half Korean and half Hawaiian (thus making him a "half-breed" in the father's eyes), Ha-yeong has to keep Jeong-woo away from Mi-ryeong's house as long as possible. Can she? Will she? Or is the better question: Will I shoot myself in the head from all the whine-talk going on?
