What can happen in 12 hours? Apparently, a bit too much. Directed by Kim Jin Sung (
The Showdown),
Surprise (a.k.a.
Surprise Party) follows two strangers over the course of one long day that brings amusing hijinks and budding love. The always likable Shin Ha Kyun (
Guns & Talks) stars opposite Lee Yo Won (
Take Care of My Cat) and Kim Min Hee (
Asako in Ruby Shoes) in this unpredictable romantic comedy. Funny, touching, and utterly entertaining, this film has more than a few surprises up its sleeves.
Mi Ryung (Kim Min Hee) wants to throw her boyfriend Jung Woo (Shin Ha Kyun) a surprise birthday party, but there are still some kinks in the plan. Jung Woo is half-Hawaiian which does not fly with Mi Ryung's conservative father, so she needs to spend some more time convincing her father otherwise. With Jung Woo arriving in Korea in the early morn, Mi Ryung sends her best friend Ha Young (Lee Yo Won) to the airport with the task of keeping him away while she works out the details. Without revealing her identity, Ha Young goes to all lengths to keep the good-natured Jung Woo occupied by pulling out various crazy schemes. Ha Young succeeds in keeping Jung Woo busy, but in the course of the day, the two begin to fall for each other.
