Kwon Sang Woo is so hot in this movie and the fight with the nunchucks was great.

Wow, did I misjudge this one. What I thought would be a fun schoolyard homage to the Dragon himself ended up being a coming-of-age story peppered with brutal bullying and pointless puppylove melodrama. So, in other words, it captured the spirit of high school pretty well. Still, the film loses its way after one of the main characters leaves, and it never really gets back on track. Definitely worth a watch, but not a must-see by any means.

The movie started off pretty good, with the whole Bruce Lee thing going on. The characters were very interesting too and I was actually intending to finish the film; but then the movie's pacing seemed to slow down and focus more on our leading man and the girl that he and his colleague both like, and I felt that this was way too shallow and boring, eating up way too much time. The trailers also tried to market this as an action homage to Bruce Lee when it's more of a drama. A lame movie and I say skip it.

This film got me very confused. The first half of this film is so interesting, definitely a 5 out 5; but after the 70-minute mark, I felt the story just dragged on and on. But that's not this film's main weak point. The real let-down is the ending. What happened to the girl and the lead guy? The film does not show any of that. It's an okay film, worth a rental, but not a purchase!

I watched this movie in an internet cafe this last summer while I was visiting Japan. So needless to say that through less than average Japanese reading skill and my complete inability to speak Korean, I did not catch everything that was going on. But I will say that only having partially understood what was being said, I was able to follow the film fairly easily. And I loved it.

I don't want to tell any of the details of the movie, but I will say that there were times during the film that I felt like crying, and then I felt like screaming with excitement. I don't think I have ever gotten so worked up during a movie in my life. I remember at one point I was grabbing the desk inside of my little stall and I was like "no! no! yes!" and I was making such a ruckus that I could hear people in the stalls around gasping.

In any case, this is a great movie and I highly recommend it. Please enjoy. I also recommend the film "My Tutor Friend".

I love this movie!! It's a great movie with an excellent acting performance from Kwon Sang Woo. Good script and nice choices of songs. You have to watch this if you're a fan of Kwon. It's one of his best movies ever.
