The Intern


tags: Korean remake of American movie
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Sun-woo (Han So-Hee) is the young CEO of a fashion start-up, WOO22.  When Ki-ho (Choi Min-sik), a retiree with 37 years of experience in publishing, joins as a senior intern, he struggles with its digital, unconventional culture. Despite their differences, the two learn from each other and form an unexpected bond.

I expected great acting by Choi Min-sik and he delivered. The story is predictable but still lots of fun to watch. It is a light comedy with very few bad people or situations to annoy viewers. I liked it specially the equally good performance by the pretty Han So-hee. I thought his loneliness made him apply for the 3 month job but it was actually nostalgia and curiosity for something he saw on the article in the magazine.

Highly recommended. Buy or rent from Amazon Video and AppleTV, 

This is a remake of the American movie with the same name. I didn't nor will ever watch the Hollywood original simply because it stars two of my most NEVER watch pair. - Ann Hathaway and Robert de Niro.  You cannot pay me a gazillion $ to watch these two together in one movie. 😧😧
