Synopsis

A struggling artist Hee-do is offered a million dollar to bet his life if he loses a game against a rich old man named No-shik who is dying from a terminal disease. The game is to dial any random number and tell whether it would be male or female who takes the call before the phone gets answered. Hee-do calls “Female” and No-shik “Male.” It turns out the call-answerer is a drag queen and Hee-do loses. After a month of a brain operation, No-shik wakes up in Hee-do’s body and Hee-do does in No-shik’s. With Hee-do’s young healthy body, No-shik is now the man of health and wealth, let alone romance with the clueless Hee-do’s fiancé. Meanwhile, No-shik’s ex-wife convinces the frustrated Hee-do to help her lay out a scheme to revenge upon No-shik by revealing the truth. However, the woman is found dead not long after in No-shik’s office building. Hee-do comes to another showdown with No-shik and makes the second bet that could return his lost body if he wins and could lose his memories about his fiancé to No-shik if he fails. Each calls out random numbers and waits for the voice to be heard.

There is an untimely shortage of actresses.

This year, the big successes have been movies about males, including "The Devil's Game", "The Chaser", and "Fate". Also, most upcoming movies, such as "The Guard Post", "Eye for Eye, Tooth for Tooth", "The Good, The Bad, The Weird", and "Shin gi Jun", do not have many actresses.

In the beginning of the year, "Forever the Moment" reached 4 million viewers and there was some expectation for female-centered romance movies, but with the failures of "Hellcats", "Miss Gold Digger", and "The Longest 24 Months", those hopes disappeared.

"Girls Scout", starring Kim Seon-ah and Nah Moon-hee, was set to premiere in April but the date has been postponed.

Maybe for this reason, most top movie actresses are turning their eyes to television. Moon Geun-yeong is preparing for a comeback with the drama "The Garden of Wind", and Kim Ha-neul and Song Yoon-ah, who had been mostly working in movies, are meeting viewers to SBS drama "On Air". It has bee...
"Stepping out of the comfort zones"
Literally, an actor makes their living through their outer image. Thus they undergo an endless changes and transformation in order to unfold their hidden charms. Recently, the female actors who had been hidden under the tag of being 'sexy' or 'innocent' took a critical counterattack to bring out their true charms.

Korea's No.1 sexy beauties Jeon Ji-hyeon and Kim Jeong-eun transformed themselves into free and easy-going characters without any make-ups; and the No. 1 innocent beauties, Son Ye-jin and Lee Bo-yeong brought out their strong femme fatale sexiness. The following is the stories of HOT ladies' transformations in their HOT movies.

■Sexy beauty → Innocent beauty

▶ "A Man Who Was Superman" : Jeon Ji-hyeon
In her film, "The man who was a superman" (CJ Entertainment Co., directed by Jeong Yoon-cheol) Jeon Ji-hyeon transformed into a TV station producer and took away her previous image of having the perfect 'S-line' b...
Director JEONG Yong-ki's "Once upon a Time" topped the Lunar New Year holiday box office, closely followed by "Forever the Moment" and "Lovers of 6 Years". "The Devil's Game", "Last Present - 2007", and "A Man Who Was Superman" claimed places four to six, respectively. "Radio Dayz" was the seventh Korean film in the top ten at nine.

"Once upon a Time" is a comedy starring PARK Yong-woo and LEE Bo-yeong. "Forever the Moment" - a sports drama with MOON So-ri and KIM Jeong-eun, and directed by LIM Soon -rye - continued its strong box office run. The romantic drama "Lovers of 6 Years" features KIM Ha-neul and YOON Kye-sang, and PARK Hyeon-jin directed.

In "The Devil's Game", YOON In-ho directs SIN Ha-gyoon and BYEON Hee-bong whose characters switch bodies. KIM Yeong-joon's drama "Last Present - 2007" stars SIN Hyeon-joon and HA Ji-won. HWANG Jeong-min plays the titular character in the drama "A Man Who Was Superman". JEON Ji-hyeon also stars and JEONG Yoon-cheol directed. RYOO Seung...
A game of exchanging bodies… If you are given one chance to bring this fantasy into a reality, which celebrity is at the top of your list? Upon this interesting survey, singer Lee Hyo-lee and "Rain" topped each gender category by overwhelming number of votes.

The survey was conducted from 21st January for a week for an advertising purpose for upcoming film "The Devil's Game". The film is about two men who snatch and get snatched each other's body by a bet.

The unique theme of "body plunder" in the film "The Devil's Game" is becoming a sensational hit. The survey was targeted to Netizens where top Korean stars including "Rain" & Lee Hyo-lee, Kwon Sang-woo & Kim Ah-joong, Song Seung-heon & Han Chae-young, Gong Yoo & Yoon Eun-hye had a hot competition. However, the first generation hot-body star, Song Seung-heon and global star Kwon Sang-woo was no match for "Rain"'s perfect body. And many beautiful top female stars couldn't beat Lee Hyo-lee's sexiness.

The world star, "Rain",...
Data from several Korean ticket reservation sites strongly indicate hegemony for Korean films over the lunar new year holiday, one of the two major Korean holidays and traditionally a peak time for cinemas.

Leading up to the lunar New Year, box office hit Forever the Moment and the new releases "A Man who was Superman" – with the stars JEON Ji-hyeon and HWANG Jeong-min – and "The Devil's Game" - starring the respected actors SIN Ha-gyoon and BYEON Hee-bong – were vying for the highest number of reservations for tickets during the holiday.

Just below the leading trio, the two colonial era comedies "Once upon a Time" and "Radio Dayz" complemented the top five reservations. The heist film "Once upon a Time" features PARK Yong-woo and LEE Bo-yeong. RYOO Seung-beom and KIM Sa-rang lead the assembly cast of "Radio Dayz".

Only Cloverfield and Happily N'Ever After entered the top five reservations once at different reservation sites, prior to the lunar New Year holiday.

I'm confused...[ok spoiler ahead to those who haven't watched this yet..don’t read further] to me it seems that...

the "bad guy" lost the bet so he asked to do the surgery where the memory of the young guy is put into his body (and therefore the original guy's memory is erased and he dies as an old man
and so that's him (the bad guy) at the end just with the memory of the original guy..but he only found out he's his son before the operation so he didn't have a chance to rethink it

......so in a way it's kinda the same thing as switching back the brains only their personalities stay the same which explains how he only wants to sleep and smokes in the same way as that guy.
..OR..they did switch back...but he continues to smoke because his body got used to it..altho we haven't seen the guy smoke before in the film he may have already smoked before...

...and the similarities are there just because they are related..and he wants to sleep because he got so accustomed to the old body
