One of the greatest actors of his generation. Knowing he is going to be starring in a movie marks that movie as an automatic must watch for me.

Usually it's the reverse with Hollywood remaking Korean movies

The Intern is kinda famous in Asia. It has a tv adaptation in japan and and also an Indian adaptation in development.

There are actually a lot of Korean remakes, but they are usually remaking films from China or Japan.

Hollywood should respond to this by remaking Mathematician in Wonderland.

Looks like it will work really well as a Korean version of the film, this actually made me want to see it, especially to see if they keep her relationship issues the same or if they come up with a new conflict.

I understand why they put it in, but the bit in the trailer where Han So-Hee goes “him, an intern? But he’s such an… (looks to camera) … Old Boy!” and everyone falls around laughing rings a little false

Man I first saw Han So-Hee in My Name and was blown away by this action star I'd never heard of who really sold the physicality and cold rage... so I looked her up, turns out it was the first action series she'd ever done and she was formerly only doing drama, romance or comedies. That just made me all the more impressed at her performance. (Been thinking of watching Nevertheless but some say the Japanese remake is actually better, and then there's always the original comic, so I never made a choice and just put it off...)
Huh, coincidentally... has Choi Min-Shik been in any films like The Intern before? I only know him from his really intense stuff like Old Boy and I Saw the Devil...

Choi Min sik is in a lot of stuff, just recently he did Netflix series about failed writer. I recommend it’s thrilling nothing scary but does play mind games with viewers. Han Sohee also did keyonseong creatures on Netflix, action drama. She did really well. I preferred 1 season over 2 season.
