Malditang Bugay Mar 08 2016 7:37 am One of my faves. Fashion, comedy, romance - all in one! I laugh so hard my cheeks hurt. I laugh through the whole movie. (Spoiler alert)* Kim Woo Bin was there. This was really a little more than I expected. The concept was great and the way that it was bought together was really spot on!!! Definitely a must watched movie.

misstiq Feb 14 2016 10:26 am @Jaki, its on the cast list, ko young jae teen played by kim ji young

Ranshi Sep 14 2015 6:36 am Kyaaa~~ Kim Sun-ho looks like Chanyeol EXO.. His voice, ears, and that face tho~~ Is he Chanyeol's brother? X3 Btw, this movie is so amusing.. I like it.. ^^

@Jaki : She's Suzy from MissA, I guess.. :)

ren Jul 22 2015 5:06 am Park Bo Gum acted as young Cha Chul-Soo, right? his smile kinda reminds me of Lee Hyun Woo tho..

chryst May 09 2015 10:57 am watch this over and over again never get bored, daebaaaak!!!!

Jaki Apr 18 2015 6:36 pm Can someone tell me the name of the girl who plays highschool version of Ko Young-Jae?

kpopkitty Mar 19 2015 3:10 am Omfg, I loved this movie so much. It was entertaining and hilarious, one of the best movies from South Korea yet. :)

Fibri Jan 28 2015 9:12 pm I just watched it, so so so funny... can't stand to hahahahaha... They're all really entertaining us.

Park Chohwa Sep 06 2014 12:11 am I added it because it was listed with Kim Woo Bin's works but he only had a cameo. Thanks to him I enjoyed such a great film. HILARIOUS, genuine and well done. The cast is awesome but it's really because of Kang Ji Hwan. This guy is a genius.. He's awesome..

Cinnamon Cappel Jun 24 2014 6:52 pm This was cute and light-hearted but not as funny as I thought it was going to be. And for some reason around the 94 minute mark the manikin standing there with a bat I thought was Lee Kwang Soo. I have been watching way to much Running Man.

Zener Apr 04 2014 12:08 am who played as the teen Ko Young-Jae ?

Schuyler Apr 01 2014 12:47 am From the looks of trailer, this movie is totally hilarious. Good acting from Kang Ji Hwan and, of course, special bonuses to the 3 good looking actors who play models in this movie. ;)

Jacq Mar 26 2014 11:16 am OMG this movie was too FUNNY!!! LOVED it!!! Highly recommend if you're looking for a fun, light-hearted movie. Ji-Hwan is a great actor...watched all his dramas/movies.

Kinggofing Mar 09 2014 6:34 pm MWAHAHAHAA!! (16 minutes into the movie) "I LIKE YOU" killed me so bad right off the bat 10 out of 10 stars already :D lol

xoxoxominomino Jan 20 2014 7:48 am Park Bo Geom Play role as young cha chul soo

amethyst Nov 11 2013 6:51 am aaahhh...it took me longer to realize that this man playing det.cha is the charismatic CEO in Lie to me..very very talented actor. i especially like the scene when he shouted I LIKE YOUUUUU to the models..Lee Soo hyuk's voice ..~(faint) and Kim Woobin on runway...he was born a model

kez Oct 12 2013 12:30 am who play role as Cha Cheolsoo at young? he's cute :*

Jj Jul 09 2013 11:36 pm what puzzles me is did the lead guy gain 10 kg to play detective cho and then lost the weight or did he act the scenes where he is hot first and then gained the weight to act the scenes of detective cho . All in all it what a good movie. Lee soo hyuk has such a deep and sexy voice

Eternal Jul 01 2013 5:01 am The film is funny but I want to ask a question: Does anyone know the beat in the opening? And 2 beats in the bikini show? I'm eager to know, please answer for me :).
