 Quirky character-driven romance Customer Review Rated Bad 8 - 8 out of 10
In "The Contact", Han Suk Kyu stars as Dong-hyun, an introverted radio show producer. Blaming himself for a tragedy that befell a schoolmate and pining for a long-lost girlfriend, Dong-hyun has sealed himself off from the world and resists the attentions of the lovely woman who writes for his radio program. Jeon Do Yeon plays Soo-hyun, a telemarketer who comes alive when she's on the phone with customers, but retreats into a shell outside of work. She is stuck in an unrequited infatuation with her roommate's hunky boyfriend. Soo-hyun strikes up an online chatting relationship with Dong-hyun and the two lonely souls quickly embrace their anonymously intimate cyber-relationship.

The film's quirky story draws the viewer in. Its characters are frustratingly true-to-life, not glossy caricatures, but complex, stumbling, sometimes wrongheaded real people who make mistakes as they grasp for a meaningful human connection. Both Han Suk Kyu and Jeon Do Yeon deliver nuanced, involving performances. While the online chatting makes the film's pacing rather choppy, the honestly drawn characters make "The Contact" well worth watching.

 Classic Customer Review Rated Bad 10 - 10 out of 10
This movie is seen as a classic romance drama. Great actors and good soundtrack. From the description I thought it would be about two people who chat on the internet all the time and finally meet, but it really wasn't that way. Very good, recommended.

Quite an enjoyable movie Customer Review Rated Bad 7 - 7 out of 10
There is not a lot of drama in the movie; even there was very little direct interaction between the two major characters (if you don't count those cyber chatting); but then the movie draws you into their lonely world

 Enjoyable Customer Review Rated Bad 8 - 8 out of 10
Good film. You'll be taken in by the characters. The only thing I didn't like about this movie was the ending. It seemed rather contrived. Maybe it wasn't worth the wait...

This movie is so sad! It's about this girl who's in love with her roommate's boyfriend. When they break up, she goes out to see him, but....it doesn't work out. While this is going on, she's been talking to this guy who's looking for his long lost girlfriend. They eventually fall in love.......he almost lets her get away!
