(2026) The Intern - The Pretty Entertaining South Korean Remake of the Hugely Popular Hollywood Drama Comedy Movie

I have known about this movie for quite some time but when its trailer was shown few weeks ago, my wife was immediately interested and excited. The film was finally released in Indonesia on Friday, though both of us were unavailable then and were only able to see it yeterday. Without further ado, here's more on the movie.

Brief Story Line

Retired professional Kim Ki-ho (Choi Min-sik - Exhuma, Big Bad TV series etc) who was also a widow, started to feel lack of meaningful activity in his life. So when he saw the advertisement for a position of Senior Intern in a successful fashion startup company named Woo22, Ki-ho decided to give a try. To his luck, Ki-ho was accepted and placed under supervision of Choi Min-ah (Ryu Hye-young - Reply 1988 TV series, The Mayor etc) who reported directly to company's CEO and founder Lee Seon-woo (Han So-hee - Project Y, My Name mini series etc). Though a bit reluctant at first, Seon-woo accepted the advice from her partner/VP Young-hwan (Kim Jun-han - Revolver, Mad Concrete Dreams TV series etc) to just let Ki-ho be working without proper assignment.
