Expertly crafted romantic comedy
Expertly crafted romantic comedy

"Lost and Found" is an exceptionally well-written, well-acted, and well-directed comedy about a love triangle. Park Jin Hee commits with absolute abandon to her wild character Jiho, a television writer who continues to pine for her high school heartthrob Minwoo (Lee Ki Woo), while the hunky boy next door Dongshik (Jo Han Sun) has spent his life pining for her. This familiar plot device turns into comic gold after Jiho is struck by Minwoo's car and decides to take advantage of the situation by pretending to lose her memory. Feeling responsible for Jiho's apparent plight, Minwoo takes her into his home, where Jiho employs all of her wiles to make him fall in love with her. Director Jeong Jeong Hwa deftly handles his central love triangle theme, as well as a host of subplots involving several quirky minor characters. In the end the film generates lots of laughs and couples the humor with some genuinely touching moments. (There is one brief dream sequence in which Dongshik wades into the sea followed by a giant stuffed elephant -- trust me, it makes sense in the movie -- that is so heartbreaking it may bring tears to the most hardened of souls.) I was very happily surprised by "Lost and Found". It greatly exceeded my expectations and I have no reservations about recommending it for a general audience. It is a delight! |

Jin-hee Park is tops as Ji Ho!
|
The first movie I ever caught with Jin-hee Park was the moderate and charming “Promenade” and then under rated “Byul” and from these seedlings of her formative acting career Jin-hee’s since burst far more into the large arena with movies “Shadows in the Palace” and the TV drama “Money’s Warfare” and easy to see why as her acting talent is excellent. In genre she can drama, comedy, romance brilliantly and all with sharp equal measure! Jin-hee does it brilliantly again here too, and performs one exceedingly engaging and funny character as Ji Ho, a troubled and distressed single woman who feels so distraught that she’s destined never to find love, that she gets exceedingly drunk, and makes her point very loudly with concerned and ear bashed friends. All due to never succeeding to ask a boy out in her formative school years. In flashbacks to her school years, Ji Ho had wanted to date Min Woo (Ki Woo Lee). But just at the moment of courage she sees MinWoo walk off with another girl, which breaks her heart. Ji Ho sends him an affectionate fluffy pink elephant in the mail, but never sees Min-woo again for 10 years. But in her adult years Jo Ho ‘bumps’ literally into the boy of her school hood dreams (now a successful interior designer) as Ji Ho accidentally hits and flies over the bonnet of Min-woo’s car while chasing a thief who’d stolen her handbag. Seeing this crossed path of fate as a window of opportunity not to be missed, Ji Ho (a little bit bruised but her heart pounding desperately ten to the dozen) immediately attempts to obtain Min-woo’s sympathy and favor (with frantic and worrying fervor) by telling big fibbies that the car accident had given her amnesia, so to obliging cause Min-woo to help her to regain her memory. Dong Sik (Hun Sun Jo) though whose shacked up with Ji Ho and her brother, is secretly in love with Ji Ho, proving that Ji Ho could be a bit wrong about getting frantic that a man (especially Min-woo) will never marry her. Jin-hee’s character is superbly crafted here, with Ji Ho using amusing verve and eccentric desperation to find love. Extras wise, a number of deleted scenes are included, the always worth watching Poster Shoots plus some video footage of Jin-hee and Ki-woo making the MV song. Brown Eyed Girls also make an appearance in a recording studio session on a vocal version of the second MV. All worth seeing! |
