Summary:

Woo Ji Hoon (Yun Jung Hun) is a playboy magician. He uses magic to get girls. He believes that love is like magic; when it wears of you just have to move on to the next woman. When he performed in a magic show in one school, he ended up making love to a teacher, Koo Hee Won. Then years after, they both lost touch and moved on. Ji Hoon went back to his playboy ways, Hee Won to teaching mischievous high school kids. One day Ji Hoon’s manager and flat mate, while looking for porn in the internet, accidentally watched this film from a hidden camera taken from a motel, of a man and a pretty young woman. He zoomed in on the shot and realized it was his friend Ji Hoon caught on candid camera!! He told Ji Hoon and he started racking up his brain who was that girl he made love with in the camera shot…and realized that is was the high school teacher Hee Won!

Ji Hoon then went back and told Hee Won that they were had a sex tape of the day when they made love in that hotel proliferating in the internet. Ji Hoon was already dating his dentist while Hee Won has a pending marriage proposal from Joon seok. Hee Won decided that they should find the pranksters and find the hidden cameras, now if only they could remember that motel. They made love in so many places that they cannot remember which motel was this.

As both Ji Hoon and He won were looking for the hidden cameras in different motels…Ji Hoon was slowly falling in love all over again with Hee Won. While Hee Won was pressured to give Joon seok an answer to his marriage proposal. Then while looking at Hee Won’s 26th birthday picture, he found the motel and discovered the hidden cameras. The motel owners mugged him and gave him a big black eye. Joon seok eventually saw Hee Won and Ji Hoon’s sex scandal and broke of their engagement. The school fired Hee Won, she moved on to a place where no one knows her. Ji Hoon, one day, found her again and they started dating again then they got married and went to their honeymoon. But before the magic in bed started they started scanning their room for hidden cameras..

 

 

 

 

What I Think:

I wanted to watch more movies with my fave, Yun Jung Hun in it so I watched this one. Yun Jung Hun is definitely a good actor and when he goes out of his comfort zone, like in this movie, he does well. I was shocked at first when I saw him in this movie, he was jumping from one girl to another, he was suave! I really like it when he starts smiling like that! Aish! Turns my insides into mush!! And his bod does not look that bad either.

Park Jin Hee is kinda pretty too, her acting is just okay and she is stylish. This is the first time I saw her in a movie and she did okay.

This movie is basically just okay. Nothing too much to rave about it.

 

This movie has a very complex way of telling things, an awful lot of flashbacks are used. I find myself lost, wondering whether this scene is the present time or the flash back, you don’t know where one scene starts and another stops. Speaking of Girls, girls, girls--- man I was totally confused which girl is Yun Jung Hun making love too. Believe me Hee won and that dentist girl that Ji Hoon’s dating looks so much like and so are the rest of Ji Hoon’s girls! Whew!

 

Some nice scenes:

@ The lady dentist took out Ji Hoon’s tooth he started complaining “It keeps on bleeding!!”---then he saw the pretty dentist, he smiles and said “I’ll be damned the pain is gone!” I thought this scene was funny!

@ Ji Hoon and Hee Won’s sex scandal from a motel. Woah! I never thought Yun Jung Hun could do those bed scenes! I need to catch my breath, those scenes are rated PG. They’re hot!

@ Ji Hoon and Hee Won staring at each thru a fish tank, This looks like a scene from Romeo and Juliet.

@ Hee won saying “I think you are certifiably crazy!” to Ji Hoon

@ Hee Won seeing their scandal on cd, she broke down and cried.

@ Hee won saying “Let’s get married or let’s get the crooks!”

@ Ji Hoon giving Hee Won a rubber duckie which only sueks when h touches it. The simple things that makes you smile, is ll that matters.

@ The searches on every motel for a hidden camera.

@ Ji Hoon giving Hee won a piggy back ride home when she got to drunk thinking of her problems. This piggy back scenes always works.

@ Their marriage
