Baby Nov 26 2023 2:04 am Im disappointed, no "Step bro help me, im stuck" scene.

Zuhrah Oct 19 2023 12:39 pm Oh I love this!!! I think the script is unique and one of a kind. Song Joong Ki is always the best. I really enjoyed it and it took me through a roll coaster of emotions ?. It’s just brilliant!

divine Oct 13 2023 7:41 pm I am in Korea so I watched this one yesterday in cinemas. I do not like it. Song Joong Ki as usual does not improve his acting and other cast are meh. I regret choosing this movie over Kang Ha Neul's movie. Now off to watch that one today.

Ms Kylie May 12 2023 5:38 am I much exicited now, the release date is today and I can’t Imagine ??❤️❤️
