This is the reason that some movies are just throw-aways. Nothing tied it all together and actually though I've seen Cha In-pyo in other films and such, this was a payday for the cast and crew.
His character is supposed to resuscitate a failing career, but it was like watching a stagnant pool of water...it just is there.

Well, It was...NOT!
Top of his game ... not
Someone who has to always look good - who always has to be on the top of his game. Who seems unable to poke fun at himself. Who takes himself way too seriously. And someone who falls on his face for exactly that. And then some - but the character development in this and where the story takes us, is quite incredible to say the least.
Yes I am sucker for movies that try and dare to be different and that is exactly what this movie does. I was trying to guess where this was going to go next. Is it flawed? Are some things (if not most) borderline ridiculous? Of course they are. But it is fun to see what they came up with. And the actors are brilliant in selling whatever the script gave them to work with.
If you care about Mr. Cha - and that is more than important to say the least, you are in for a treat. A weird treat, but a treat nonetheless.
Too funny
First I watched it at random. Then my sister and I watched. Then my adult son and I watched. We all laughed almost continuously. Aging gracefully is no picnic.
