S Diary

Still gungho about Gong Yoo in Coffee Prince a month ago, I surfed the net to search for the Kdramas/movies acted by him. I had picked to watch 'S Diary' from the list of movies he was in.

On a rating from one to ten, I would rate the movie at 5.5/10. A 2004 romantic comedy film, the story is about about a girl Jini (by Kim Sun Ah) and memories of her first loves. In the movie, Jini goes through her past boyfriends and reflects on how they've given her memories when she got dumped by her boyfriend with the final note that he was only interested in "making out" to her but not in a lasting relationship.

This triggers the girl’s curiosity about whether her past three lovers were also only after her favors. As a result Jini checks back on her previous boyfriends including Ku-Hyeon (Lee Hyun-Woo), an advocate of strong religious beliefs, macho college lover Jeong-Seok (Kim Su-Ro) and inexperienced Yoo-In (Gong Yoo) who makes a living as carefree graffiti artist.

The turning point in the movie would be when her conscience advises her to try and get revenge on her loves until they've learned a lesson. Suddenly the movie takes a turn from cute romance love story to funny petty revenge. It's all in good fun though as most of the tactics she has are harmless and just cute.

Something to watch if you don't have much to do.. =)
