Peppermint Candy (2000) (Korean)
Story about man’s life. From death to birth. First it’s just a lunatic crashed by train, then beggar who lost everything. Later a monster - sadistic police officer and finally nice guy who can be easily shape into just anyone. Very important movie about the system capable to destroy or elevate individual thrown inside, but most of all about the choices we all have to make. Makes you think about your life too.

When Romance Meets Destiny (2005) (Korean)
The two main characters, innocent Kwang-shik (Kim Joo-hyeok) and playboy Kwang-tae (Bong Tae-gyu) are brothers. The movie shows how these two very different love, and exposes men’s innermost feelings which women often have misunderstandings of. The movie shows that man is an animal that is both extremely innocent and wild, and that has both sincere and evil intentions. Kwang-shik and Kwang-tae are as different as day and night, but they have one thing in common. Both have never said “I love you” in their entire lives: one because he is too innocent, and the other because he is such a player. This movie is convincing because it exposes the fact that men sometimes turn into Kwang-shiks and sometimes into Kwang-taes.
The movie neatly portrays a love story that is more realistic than today’s absurd romantic comedies, thanks to the slight twists from the obvious formula and to savory lines and original episodes.
I, Kwang-shik: “My love from seven years ago has returned”
I am a 34-year-old photographer who runs a photo studio in Jamsil. It must have been seven years ago, when a bag of “Saewookkang” chips was only 400 won. I met a girl at a college club. I had returned to school from military service, she was a freshman. Yoon-kyung (Lee Yo-won) was idolized by the male students, but I never poured my heart out to her. Well, I tried a few times, but strangely, I would freeze every time I stood before her.
When girls say “thank you”, I know what they mean. It is a circumlocution to express a vague state of mind. A similar expression would be: “You are a good man”. This means I am not boyfriend material. In college, my nickname was “peacekeeper in the world of love”. As a result I have several “little sisters”. Yoon-kyung has appeared in front of me again. But it’s strange. She seems to have feelings for me, but why did she give chocolates on Valentine’s Day to another man? I want to end my unrequited love of seven years and finally confess my love to her….
I, Kwang-tae: “Men must break up before the 12th encounter”-
The magic number that a man should remember is “12″. Which means, in order to be cool, you have to break up with a girl before you sleep with her 12 times. This is when the man starts to get fed up with the relationship and the girl starts to get obsessed. Kyung-jae (Kim Ah-joong), the girl I just met, has a great body and a hot personality, but still I must break up with her at number 12. By the way, the average couple in OECD nations sleeps together after their third date; the rate of progress in Korea is too slow.

R-point (2004) (Korean)
Review taken from IMDb.
The motif of this movie is similar to that of “apocalypse now”. Like this classic movies about Vietnam, R point described the horror which the soldiers confronted at the battle field. Although this movie adopted many things from ‘apocalypse now’, it shows another type of the horror- in the oriental meaning- “punitive justice”. no one would return home if he committed bloody thing. What the soldiers felt as original sin is what they committed in Vietnam. And the curse was cast on them as Chinese troop, french troop, and US troop (they were all the invaders to Vietnam) were “punished”.
The director said that he wanted to make this movie as antiwar movie. I think that he oscillated between “horror movie” and “antiwar movie”. The plot is monotonous and solders’ mental state and personal history were so much omitted that it hard to understand without further information. However, I think that his attempt is relatively successful. I thought much about the deployment of Korean troop to Iraq, after I saw this movie.

Sex is Zero (2003) (Korean Comedy)
Story: Eun Sik is 28 years old and has recently started school at the university. He is a member of the Cha Ryu group and practices with them daily, through painful endurance training. He meets the much younger and gorgeous Eun Hyo, for whom he holds a completely one-sided attraction. Eun Sik’s amazingly unlucky, and a host of embarrassing situations happen to him. Through all of this, him and his insanely horny group of friends help make one of the most memorable sex comedies, complete with both hilarious and somewhat dramatic moments.
Sex is Zero starts as a goofball comedy (and rather funny at that) but later adds Korean drama that shouldn’t have been mixed with a comedy. There are some good laughs and both boys and girls mess up well occasionally. Most of the jokes only work in a movie and in context and as a surprise.

My Girl and I (2005) (Korean)
“My Girl and I” features the well-known plot of an ill-fated couple. Su-ho (Cha Tae-hyeon) is a plain high school boy, and Su-eun (Song Hye-kyo) is a bright and beautiful girl in the same school. For some unknown reason, Su-eun has a crush on the boy, and for equally mysterious reasons she rescues Su-ho in the sea (though he doesn’t know who actually saved him). In the process, Su-eun loses her pager. When she discloses the relationship with Su-ho at school, despite envy and disbelief from other classmates, she asks Su-ho to buy her a pager so that they can communicate with each other through voice messages - a secret communication channel since So-eun’s parents are quite strict. The way the couple develops affection is bearable, helped by images of a beautiful seaside village and equally enchanting coastlines. Supporting characters like Su-ho’s grandfather (Lee Soon-jae) jazz up the otherwise too simplified storyline.
