Of Swords and Parasols

So, title aside, this is a pretty clean movie.  It's a romantic comedy about two players, Jin-Mun and Ji-Won, trying to play each other who end up falling for each other(pretty much--the ending is somewhat openended but indicates enough that I'm satisfied), and a reminded me quite a bit of  How to Lose A Guy in 10 Days(even has a scene where he cooks a delicious meal for her then she comes up with an excuse for why she can't eat it).  One thing that stood out that I liked was that they were both almost always aware of what the other was tryinbg to pull, and alternated between outdoing them and calling them on it(less of the second, though she gets him good at one point) Like 100 Days With Mr. Arrogant, it succeeds more as a comedy than as a romance, but I quite liked it.  And, on a purely shallow level, I watched it for Song Il Gook(Yum Moon in Emperor of the Sea) and it has him soaking wet for about twenty minutes and running around in the rain for a few bits of that.  Oh, and shirtless.  Yes, I'm shallow.
