Synopsis
Two brothers, Kwang-sik and Kwang-tae, have very different attitudes toward women. Kwang-sik is extremely shy and can't say a word to a woman. But Kwang-tae is a playboy who just sleeps around. One day, Kwang-sik meets Yoon-kyung for the first time in seven years and he tries to confess his feelings to her, in his own way. Similarly, Kwang-tae meets Kyung-jae during a marathon and he tries his own ways on her. At first Kwang-sik still finds it very difficult to even talk to Yoon-Kyung and Kwang-tae thinks of Kyung-Jae as yet another temporary conquest, but in each case something changes in the brothers. Will they be able to love this time?

 "Does my hair style look a bit strange? I wanted to look like a doctor".
Lee Yo-won, 27, had her hair short and permed and was wearing a medical gown. I interviewed her at an examining room furnished with nothing but one bed. Lee is going to play the main character of an SBS drama titled "Surgeon Bong Dal-hee" to be aired at 9:55 p.m. on every Wednesday and Thursday starting from January 17. On January 2, I "examined" her at the set decorated like an emergency room in a studio located in Hwaseong, Gyeonggi.
Lee came into the examining room with her hands deep in pockets. She said that the realistic set with hospital equipment such as bloody sheets and Ringer's solution makes her feel like a doctor tired from night duty.
"It's like I've been hospitalized since we started shooting. I have headache. A hospital is not a place to stay long", said she with a smile.
In this drama, Bong Dal-hee is a resident physician who keeps her heart disease a secret and desires to be a special...| More |

At first glance, the combination of Baek Yoon-sik and Bong Tae-gyu in the new comedy film "How the Lack of Love Affects Two Men" (Aejonggyolpibi Tu Namjaege Michinun Yonghyang) appeals to those who have enjoyed the actors' wacky yet funny characters in previous films.
It was hilarious to see Baek play a hermit with super martial art skills and his own profound philosophy of life in "The Art of Fighting" and a traditional Korean wrestling coach in "Like a Virgin". Bong has also successfully created interesting roles such as a fainthearted playboy in "When Romance Meets Destiny" and a bullied student in "See You After School".
But what is missing from their new film is a story for them to tell and develop to show off their charms.
The film's storyline is so simple _ a father and his son fight over a sexy woman who moves into the room downstairs in their house, but the film totally relies on the two actors and seems to expect them to make the si...| More |
