My Girlfriend is an Agent (2009)

1-The reason I watched this : I have no idea, all I know that I couldn't sleep around 3 am then I found this film's dvd in one of my collections so I decided to watch it.
I never watch films without reading its synopsis but this was a great exception.

2-Storyline/Plot : On the outside, it may sound like the Korean version of "Mr. and Mrs. Smith" but somehow I thought it was special with its own events and its own charm.
I laughed so hard while watching this to the point that I tried blocking my mouth with my hands since was afraid that I may wake everyone in the house: yes, it was really funny! The story wasn't outstanding but the laughter moments (and sometimes romance moments) made me fall for it.

3-Acting/Cast : I like Kim Ha Neul and yeah she was cool here but I believe that Kang Ji Hwan was the leader of this film; he really cracked me up and the way he screams was so freaking funny, he really managed to pertray his role in a perfect way and most of all, he was believable.

4-The ending : I loved the final scene but the general ending was a typical rom-com ending.

5-My impression: This film literally cracked me up; I remember laughing my stomach out until I almost rolled on the floor late at night. This is a unforgettable film indeed.

6-Overall : This is the type of film that I would recommend to anyone:
There's laughter.
The funny romance.
Action (especially the hilarious action scenes with Kang Ji Hwan).

Wow! what a good movie to have...something to refresh your night after being tired the whole day.

It's hilarious and I can't believe that Kang Ji-hwan did a great job in comedy role!!! I really love Kim Ha-neul and in this movie she never disappointment, no matter what kind of role, she's really good, and this time she's into action and yet she's sexy!!!

The movie includes foreigners as antagonist which made it more beautiful as it is a spy movie like James Bond or Borne Legacy with romance.. The flow is fast and it will not bore you. I really love the fighting scene.

Kim Ha-neul and Kang Ji-hwan made a cute chemistry between them! hope they have another project together in the future...

Rewatch value? 9!!!

It was easy to suspend my disbelief with this movie which I think you have to do more than not when watching a spy/action comedy. This movie isn't perfect but I found watching it a lot of fun.

There were a lot of moments I laughed out loud. Kang Ji Hwan has a certain style of physical comedy. He's an expressive actor and isn't afraid to be 'out there', to look silly or foolish. He can also turn it around on a dime and be serious and kind of badass. I dig that about him. Kim Haneul is good....just plain good. She really pulls off the silliness of the comedic moments but she is believable during the dramatic moments too. But this is mostly a farcical story even with all the spy action going on. I will be seeking out other things she's acted in.

I'm giving this high marks purely for my own enjoyment and I recommend this if you're up for a fun, easy watch.

This movie is worth watching. It was good and enjoyable but soon you'll get bored of watching it.
The characters were good and funny. The plot was OK.
It's the kind of movie you'd watch if you had nothing to watch.
what is liked the least is the plot. It's an action movie so there supposed to be more action in it. But they were concentrating on the drama and the lives of the main characters.
The case in was easy to to solve so, most people wouldn't have that "what's gonna happen next?" moment or wonder "who did it?".
I don't strongly recommend watching it but it's worth watching.

I probably liked this film about 10x more than I thought I would. Earlier this year I watched the drama 7th Level Civil Servant, which is the remake of this film, and thought it was pretty mediocre, so I was probably half excited to see the original and half skeptical that it wasn't going to turn out as well as I had hoped. And thankfully I was very pleased with this film... Enough that I even put it on my top 5 favorite movies.

I absolutely LOVE Kang Ji Hwan.. I love how he's that type of actor who isn't afraid to show his silly and outrageous side in his portrayal of his roles, and this film definitely showed that. And even though I'm not a big fan of Kim Ha Neul, I really liked her in this film. She brought a lot of comedy herself into this film, and I liked how her character was a very strong and independent heroine. Seriously, her action scenes were pretty kick-ass. The rest of the cast didn't paticularly stick out to me, since the film's main focus was the 2 leads.

Didn't hear much music, so I can't really give my judgement on that. Overall, I LOVED this film. It was funny and action packed with cheesy romance and didn't have its dull moments. I would definitely rewatch this film again.. I was more fond of the comedy then the romance, so it was definitely enough to come back to. If you haven't seen this film yet, I highly recommend you watch it. Especially if you're a fan of comedies and Kang Ji Hwan.. I think you just might enjoy this film!

Even though I love spy plots and heard about this movie so many times, I was still stupid enough to put off watching it for later. I don't regret for a second having spent my afternoon watching this because, quite frankly, this movie is the definition of awesome!
Two things stood out most: a) The hilarious scenes. If you're looking for a good laugh, then be my guest and watch this! b) The amazing acting. I think both main leads did a great job... this is the first Korean movie/series in which the female lead didn't make me roll my eyes. Not even once! And Kang Ji Hwan did one of the best jobs out there. Also, the foreigners LOL. Numerous times I've heard that foreigners don't act well in Korean stuff, but these ones did. I'd also like to point out that the action scenes were not cheesy. So props for that! Now, to finish off... if you want a good laugh paired up with great acting and an interesting plot, I suggest you watch this :P

this was just hilarious, action packed and good. i dint like kim ha neul in a gentlemans dignity but this changed my mind. she was so good and i enjoyed every minute. the nerdy boyfriend always looks present even in the drama lie to me. the two were so interesting to watch. so she is an undercover agent and has a needy boyfriend who wants nothing but love and time from her but shes always caught up in her job. he caught her in a lie but she still found a way to get out of it. finally he leaves and dumps her then comes back three years later as a rookie agent and wants her back. they both keep it a secret from each other but find themselves working a similar case. its the korean version of mr and mrs smith except brad is not a nerd.

I loved this movie it was like mission impossible but Korean style, I loved how the main leads speaked so many languages and would argue in them that was my favorite part lol. This was hands down a funny movie something you could enjoy on a night with friends or when you just want to have a laugh. Overall this movies was funny the leads have a hate/love relationship were they would bicker but end up making up later. I wanted him to be more of an experienced NIS agent because it would make him look more sexyier but him being a idiot is what made the movie funny so it doesn't matter, GUYS you'll enjoy this movie trust me on this one!!!!

Ok this is not being lenient this movie made me laugh so hard!!! I mean I haven't seen asian comedy like this and HE CAN BE SO DUMB! It's sexy, actiony, romancey, and all other ey's i can think of! The plot was great, it had just the right amount of romance and the right amount of action and the jokes just kept on coming till the end of the CREDITS!! Acting wise well come on I think they did wonderful and since it was a movie it didn't drag on and there were no excessive use of tears and the actors really seemed to be having a good time during filming. Muic was great for any spy/romace film! And rewatch value is a 10 just becasue the laughs I got wouldn't be bad to have when Im having a crappy day and its a movie so no need to sit for days upon days to finish! Overall it really is a great watch and I believe that this is something you should watch when you
1)having a bad day
2)bored with some time
3)ITS BREAK AND YOU WANT TO WASTE TIME (my case)
4)Lie To Me made you obsessed so you wouldn't mind some more Kang Ji Hwan in action!
