How was a movie like this made? First, it was a Korean production featuring a predominantly Japanese cast speaking Japanese and filmed in Thailand. Second, the love story was between a divorced gold digging big spending lady and a soon to be married gold digging junior corporate drone. Just thinking about it leaves me shaking my head.
The movie (or actors) do a fair job of drawing the audience into the story, but the story itself is just too wild. Logically thinking, how can you feel sympathy for these two characters.
She is a divorced gold digger who lives in a hotel suite and spends money recklessly on whatever she pleases. She is introduced to the male lead knowing he is soon to be married while the male leads best friend is trying to woo her.
He is a junior corporate drone who is engaged to a wealthy lady in what the audience probably alludes as a strategic decision to rise rapidly the corporate ladder. He is soon to be married and just needs to keep his pants on for a few months until the marriage consumes.
Then their relationship starts when he hits a homerun during a friendly US-Japan airline employee game in which she is rooting for the US team and he fails to be a team player and listen to his coaches strategy. She picks up the homerun ball, finds out where he lives, and walks into his apartment immediately taking off her underwear and the relationship begins.
Anyway, its incredible that such a plot and relationship between such impure souls strives to create a pure love story. You have to give the actors credit as they try and at times the audience may get caught into it, but for me, the story was way too far-fetched.
