One of the best films i have seen

This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

If you're interested in the topic at hand, you should just watch it and judge yourself because the reviews have gone very biased by people that didn't even watch it and just hate (or love) the creator. I liked it, it was well written, narrated, and directed and it was about a topic that interests me.

Many of the Romantic Comedy films are pretty basic story lines: Boy meets girl. Boy gets girl. Boy loses girl. Fateful events happens and boy gets girl back. Happily ever after. This is cut from the same mold as are most of the Hollywood Rom-Coms. This movie is well filmed and the actors well chosen. This movie is also known as "My Secret Partner" and is billed as such on Amazon Instant Videos. The love making scenes in this film are better than the stand fare and share the wealth as far as male and female nudity goes. It is not a pornographic movie. It is erotic at times. The story is also believable, for the most part. I did not find the story lagging and this is relate-able to anyone who has been stuck in their career. I struggled about rating this 8/10. My misgivings about the higher rating came from a purely American perspective in the way the female leads are groped in the very beginning of their sexual relationship. My basic complaints of Asian Rom-Coms (in my experience, and I have watched a ton being married to an Asian lady) are that nudity is usually male bottoms and a flash, if any, of female breast. Thanks, but throw a bone to the men in the audience. Here, the love making scenes are not very realistic without being pornographic. The events that transpire are as standard as any other in nature. A has-been screenwriter is teacher college courses on screen writing while he is stuck trying to make a come back. His college aged son is an aspiring chef. They meet people in their jobs that are considered inappropriate for them to date, but end up in relationships with them anyway. *** Spoilers to follow *** The son meets his famous chef inspiration who is just rehashing old standards that made her famous. She is trying mightily to create new dishes to reinvigorate her career. She has a long time apprentice who rules the kitchen with an iron fist and resents the attention that the new guys is getting.Our professor/screen writer has an admirer in his class that throws herself on him in the restroom of a restaurant and he wordlessly rebukes her as this is inappropriate for a student/teacher to be in a relationship. Another student, the daughter of our famous chef, is also in his class. She is stuck in a rut both creatively and personally. Her friend suggests she take up with the next man that walks out of the restaurant. Yes, it is our professor.Events transpire that throw these people together and eventually sparks fly and clothing is tossed aside. And then they all do stuff to ruin the relationships. Hilarity ensues.The female leads are the best part of the movie. Yoon Chae-Yi is the female coed struggling for inspiration. Her IMDb profile only lists 2 professional movies and I find that hard to believe. She was excellent in the role and totally realistic. Kim Hye-Sun is the middle-aged chef and is not only beautiful, but a wonderful actress in the role. Why her career has lagged and she is not a bigger star in Asian cinema is a mystery to me. This was enjoyable and worth a look.

A father who's a screen writer has a son who's studying to be a chef. A mother who's a chef has a daughter who's student in the class where afore mentioned father teaches. In this movie, son latches with the mother, and the father latches with the daughter.This is another one of many good erotic comedies from Korea. Koreans probably makes the best erotic comedy in the world these days. There's element of home drama mixed with Cat III movies. It's not sleazy, and is like watching situational comedy with some skin.It's not quite certain why these couples got together. The women must have been attracted to the two men, but there's also an element of just getting the rocks off or looking for a diversion in life aspect to the relation when it first starts. Then the non-stop necking, petting, and eventually sex happens. The whole thing has outrageousness that's part of this movie's attraction. All of this comes with a price, but everyone seems to survive with few bruises.If you're looking for an erotic comedy/drama, this movie is a good candidate to spend an evening with. It's beautifully shot, with good looking bodies, but is not pornographic, and keeps things in good taste.

Well, i was very pleased by this movie and a little bit twisted. I can't define whenever it is an adult movie or a real comedy movie... There is a plenty of hot and sexy scenes and even almost full nudity but it is not an erotic movie, neither a porno one ! Just a melty comedy-sexy and sexy-comedy one ! The story is telling us about two main story, and maybe a third one... A school story between teacher and student about copy-talent relation... And a cook-student, and a cook-master following them while they are re-inventing themselves and their cook talent !By reading between scenario lines, you will guess this is a movie about relationship between low-people and power-people where both side can take advantage of being in a several side. Something is strange in the movie : there is no full parental scheme (a mother + a father + a child) displayed. It is not a spoil but it is strange that the director missed that part.
