My Tutor Friend (2003)

Korean title: 동갑내기 과외하기 (Dong-gab-nae-gi Kwa-oi-ha-gi)

What’s popping:
Well, well, now there’s no excuse in not knowing who Kwon Sang-woo – the “most wanted” actor in Korea according to HanCinema – is as this flick was shown Saturday night (July 21, 8.30pm to 10.30pm) on 8TV. I only managed to catch the last 45 minutes of the movie and have seen enough to deduce that yes, Mr. Kwon is good leading man material ;-).

The plot:
When cash-strapped university student Soo-wan (played by Kim Ha-neul, 김하늘) begins tutoring Ji-hoon (played by Kwon Sang-woo, 권상우), their sessions start out rough, but along the way, they fall in love.

Watch it:
Sorry guys, it has already been shown on terrestrial TV. You’ll just have to get the DVD.
