Seducing Mr. Perfect
released on December 7, 2006
I watched this movie a few weeks ago. I really enjoyed it. The main actor (Daniel Henney) is a Korean American. He's very handsome! I remember seeing him in a Biotherm ad in South Korea, but I didn't know who he was until now.
I was surprised to hear so much English in the movie. I watched it with English subtitles, but I actually understood probably 50% of the movie!
Plot summary:
Min-joon (Uhm Jung-hwa) believes in true love and always very dedicated to her boyfriend. Men always end up breaking up with her. Her latest boyfriend ends the relationship on his birthday. She is distracted by the latest break-up and she bumps into a car. A man steps out. He turns out to be her new boss, Robin Heiden, played by Daniel Henney. Heiden believes that love and relationships are a game of power. Min-Joon asks Robin for dating advice because she doesn't want to get dumped again. She starts to treat men the way that Robin treats women. She realizes she prefers her own way even if it means she will get dumped again. She believes isn't about who has the power. Heiden is also dealing with his own heartbreak..He eventually falls in love with her and both get into a real relationship and a happy ending of their own.
There is something unique about this movie. Robin Heiden only speaks in English because Korean is too hard to speak. Min-Joon speaks mostly in Korean. They understand each other without needing a translation. This style was new for a Korean film and was part of the reason why the movie was so successful.
