abbiechong-66201 This movie is predictable but from a romance movie perspective, it did touched my heart. Personally I think both actings are great. Especially the 'can't live without you' kinda feeling of SSH towards LJY. SSH brought the title of 'obsessed' to live. As an audience, I can feel the bitter and sweet of love in a couple. At the same time, the guilt, struggles and confusion in love affair. Initially I decided to watch this because of SSH hence, not much expectation as the rating in IMDB is rather low. However, after watching it, I would recommend this! And if you are a sentimental person, you would probably appreciate this even more. ^^

Anupiya Alwis My first Korean movie! A friend suggested, and I finally decided to take her up on her offer. To be honest, I had absolutely no faith in going forward with the movie choice but surprisingly ended up loving it. I think the two main characters did more than enough justice to the movie. Not the best Korean movie out there I suppose, but very much watchable and entertaining. I thought Ji-yeon Lim was very pretty in the movie, and so did the the guy actor, Seung-heon Song. In my personal opinion, guys shouldn't be pretty and doll like as these Korean actors are. The only thing manly about them is the smoking and shaving, if there was anything to shave at all. (maybe I failed to see the stubble) More than anything, I liked the 'The Rose', sung by Aoi Teshima at the ending credits. What seemed to be like Korean lyrics, ended up being her accent.

Hasi The movie is set in 1969 and revolves around an Army Colonel Kim Jin-pyong, played by Song Seung Hoon who is recognized as a war hero who served in the Vietnam War. He is married to a daughter of a high ranking official. Song depicts an introverted character who keeps to himself amidst the mental suffering of post-traumatic disorder. However, everything changes when he falls in love with a beautiful young wife of a subordinate. The love story between the two is almost like love at first sight. Yet, it is pure, passionate and grows up to an obsession for Colonel Kim where he even tries to take up his own life at one point. The latter half of the movie flows quite fast and certain areas remain ambiguous to the viewer. The sad ending to the movie makes it more real and compassionate. Overall, the movies showcase how a man can change when he finds his own true love and how it becomes a destruction. If you are a fan of Hollywood movies like Unfaithful or Fifty Shades of Grey, this movie Obsessed is in par with them as per Korean standards. Song Seung Hoon's first movie of this genre and a must watch. I believe his acting must be appreciated more in this movie as this is a very different character compared to the ones he has played before and he does justice. Rookie actress Lim Ji-yeon on the hand shows mature acting and very bold. Highly recommended.

KineticSeoul This is got to be one of the most self-indulgent movie I have ever seen. Well self-indulgent for the actor Song Seung-hun. It's pretty much that "oh I can't live without you girl" premise to elevate his popularity with the female audiences. The story is straightforward, I don't even think there needed to be a military background or anything like that. Everything is very predictable for the most part. It's sad when the protagonists are more dis-likable than the side characters. As a matter of fact, the actor and actress that had the side or supporting characters roles did a much better job than the primary. Overall, this is a forgettable flick. And I can see only one reason this movie could sell tickets, it's to see Song Seung-hun with his shirt off. There is little to almost nothing in it for the guys to enjoy.2.5/10
