KST Dec 16 2023 10:37 am What a sad story!? I really love the chemistry of So min and Jun ho. Really hope they will come with a drama!!! They are really well matching for a couple...

Jowi Jan 14 2023 3:21 am Drama version of this movie please with the same leads. Junho and Soomin full of chemistry! Ending is bitterweet.

TS Mar 13 2022 12:16 am I came across Homme Fatale by accident but really enjoyed this movie. Junho is a delight to watch every time I see him on screen. I know a lot of viewers would prefer this to be a drama so they can see more developed character backgrounds, but for a movie it was still pretty easy to invest in the story plot for an hour or so. Nice job!

CJ Dec 25 2021 12:15 pm Cute movie, but I wish it had been a drama instead of a movie, because we don't get enough time to learn about the characters and their backstory or see a more fleshed out character development. There were moments that were sad and I felt like I was supposed to cry, but I didn't cause I felt very little attachment to the characters. Maybe I just watch too many dramas idk. Maybe a few years down the road they'll make it into a drama to give the story more depth, similar to what was done with the movie Masquerade.

katina Jul 18 2021 10:56 am Ok but this was not comedy that much :[[

E Tulane Jul 16 2021 10:17 am Any Jung So Min work is a delight to watch.

Nelly May 21 2021 11:43 am I watched it because I was curious about male gisaeng. Actors were my favorites too. At first I felt this is some funny comedy they even use modernday phrases and even english . But really this movie can be enjoyed by people who love serious plot too because it is not some just funny one tthis movie actually touch some sensitive topics .

Wew Aug 04 2020 1:26 am I already watch this a long time ago but now i gather may courage to writr my view here..

So this movie is basically light and fun at the same time its also will breake your soul. I watch this while smiling and crying. I really do expected of happy ending for both leads..however its still happy ending because they both knew their love exist even tought its in the past but they hold and embrace their memories so that they will not forget each other..

I really cannot go through the movie that has time lapse or time pass or all about time because waiting is terrible. Same with this movie

Aya Jun 14 2020 3:49 pm I decided to watch this movie, because I was looking for something light, cute and funny, but don't be fooled by the premise. This movie has some really sad moments. I do agree that this would have worked better as a drama, because that would give the characters and the story more time to develop. It doesn't mean that I didn't enjoy this though. It's an interesting story with a bittersweet ending. Definitely worth a watch.

Cyril Apr 14 2020 11:21 pm I really enjoyed this movie! The actors are great, the plot is also great, its almost same as what have had happened in the old times (I have read tons of Korean History archives) and I really do not expect a "happy ending" for the two main leads (I wont spoil lol) but the ending was good. I cried tho, it was very touching hahahah. And I laughed so hard when Jun-Ho started a monologue and its the lyrics of Wonder Girls' Tell Me. (Sorryyy I can't keep it to myself). Overall, I do recommend this if you want a good laugh and cry.

Zeila Nov 06 2019 6:39 am Extremely disappointed. Total waste of some good, and some veteran, actors. The premise would have been great as a series, where the story and the characters could have been given time to grow, but this was a boring mess. You can see what it could have been in the last scenes. Not much time spent on JunHo actually being a male gisaeng. The lead in scenes tell the ending...I hate when they do that. 2 stars....and that is only for the cast.

Nekochan Apr 21 2019 10:56 am Junho ssi you are really great artist. Can't wait for this movie to realease

p.p. Jan 28 2019 6:46 pm I am so glad that Junho is acting in a new film and also in a new drama before going to the army. I watched the movie Twenty couple of times because the actors are so good and the movie is fun. I learned a new word, let me use it: DAEBACK! Can't wait !

oiu Dec 19 2018 1:12 am good luck :")

Han Hyena Dec 17 2018 11:37 pm Glad to see you two again after Twenty movie. See, Dong Woo has chance to dating with So Min after she had relation with Chi Ho and Kyung Jae hahaha. See you soon, do your best!

DW Dec 16 2018 8:01 am Yussss Junho. Another drama. And it's opposite Jung Somin YAY

Yoojung? Dec 15 2018 8:36 am Daeback

neea Dec 14 2018 6:00 am Jung So Min, yes, my fav actress. How I wish this is a drama, sounds very

interesting

kittyweese Dec 13 2018 12:59 pm Yeesss! Two of my favorites. Can't wait.

Mel Dec 13 2018 8:04 am A progressive saeguk fusion with feminist undertones? Sign me up! I can't wait to see Junho and Jung Somin in their roles.

Joey Dec 13 2018 7:30 am I really enjoy the two actors works so definitely looking forward to this drama!
