name Sep 17 2015 2:09 am I like to punch Bong Tae-Gyu in the face so hard what a annoying idiot

kitty Jun 06 2011 7:14 am i like Lee Yo Won, she is so pure.

iflahayamh Apr 16 2011 1:25 pm I rather enjoyed this movie. It didn't have the basic formula that I'm used to, but I found that refreshing. I've both experienced being the guy silently in love and the good-for-nothing, (mostly the good-for-nothing) and I enjoyed that bit of hope given when the camera fades away with those two in the coffee shop/restaurant.

Vanessa May 14 2010 5:02 pm It started out really cute (love Kim Ju Hyuk in this, big turnaround from Love Me Not), and progressed to a tiresome stage when it was all about the other brother and Kim Ah Joong. Jung Kyung Ho was a pleasant surprise, love this guy, but he was just okay in this movie...

A question of whether you leave romance to yourself or up to destiny, or maybe a little bit of both.

Nalyah Jun 20 2009 12:21 pm The plot sounds very gripping, however, I believe that this movie could be called "A Drunkard and a Nice Guy Try to Fall in Love" ^^ Well, both my boyfriend and I thought that the film was a bit disappointing, not that funny and it lacked soul.

A great plus for "When Love Meets Destiny" is definitely the performance of Ju-hyuk Kim. Other than that the movie tries the clever thing of fooling the watchers by young and pretty/handsome faces of totally lacking skills and experience actors; such as Kim, Ah-jung or Kyeong-ho Jeong. This doesn't work for me at all!
