[by Woorim Ahn] Movie ‘Like for Likes’ unveiled its main poster. 

On January 27, the film disclosed the main poster containing Yoo Ah In, Kang Ha Neul, Lee Som, Lee Mi Yeon, Choi Ji Woo and Kim Joo Hyuk’s faces.

Just like the people in love sharing their love on SNS, they make lovely faces while doing something on their phones and it caught the mass public’s attention. 

The six people’s appearance seems like they are about to fall in love right away and the caption ‘Stop ‘Like’-ing. Can we love?’ aroused the fans’ curiosity about the love story that they will draw in the film.

[Herald Review] ‘Like for Likes’ is charming but predictably cheesy

Lee Mi-yeon and Yoo Ah-in star in “Like for Likes” (CJ Entertainment)

With “Like for Likes,” what you see is what you get: A cookie-cutter omnibus romantic comedy featuring three couples, tangentially linked, each finding his or her way to an ever-after ending. The men are sweet, the women are adorable and butterflies abound as the familiar stages of courtship unfold.

It’s difficult to imagine how this setup could yield surprises, yet one still feels a tinge of disappointment at the way in which “Like for Likes” fulfills its promise to a T. If any romantic comedy could give the tired tropes a whirl, it seemed “Like for Likes” would be it, because of its all-star cast, if nothing else. 

The first couple is made up of veteran actress Lee Mi-yeon (most recently in the hit drama “Reply 1988”) playing a haughty, sharp-tongued TV writer and Korean cinema darling Yoo Ah-in (“Veteran,” “The Throne”) playing a carefree, selfish international superstar.

Kim Joo-hyuk and Choi Ji-woo star in “Like for Likes” (CJ Entertainment)

The second couple throws together hallyu star Choi Ji-woo, who rose to stardom with the TV drama “Winter Sonata,”, with steady actor Kim Joo-hyuk, who was in the comedy film “The Beauty Inside”. Choi plays a hardworking yet clumsy flight attendant while Kim plays a friendly chef who likes to poke his nose into everyone’s business. Through a series of unfortunate events, the two become unwilling roommates and eventually very close friends.

The third couple struts out Kang Ha-neul, who was in the movie “Twenty,” with model and actress E Som, who was in the movie “Scarlet Innocence”. Kang is a gifted composer with a hearing impairment who has no experience in love, while E is a savvy TV producer who finds her next plaything in Kang’s character.

It’s a cast of A-list names with solid, serious acting credentials playing cliched characters. Despite the film’s attempts to market itself as being fresh and trendy by having all three couples eventually hook up thanks to the power of social media, online networks play a minimal role in the plot itself. Any romantic comedy set in 2016, in fact, should incorporate Facebook stalking and messaging in order to seem realistic.

E Som and Kang Ha-neul star in “Like for Likes” (CJ Entertainment)

The interesting way in which “Like for Likes” differentiates itself from other syrupy sweet love films is through its female characters. They have strong careers and strong expressions of self-worth beyond simply being one-half of a relationship. 

Director Park Hyun-jin told reporters at the press preview that she wanted the female characters to be “independent” rather than be “swept around by the male characters,” and that intent jumps out through certain lines in the film. Choi Ji-woo’s character casually corrects the term “spinster” into “single woman” in conversation, and Yoo Ah-in’s character chastises his colleagues for calling Lee Mi-yeon’s character bossy and headstrong saying that a man who had this type of personality would be considered self-assured. 

Unfortunately, those socially conscious lines generally fall in awkward thuds even from the mouths of the excellent cast. They are jarring when considering the overall mood of the film, and these moments come across as a break in character. 

“Like for Likes” isn’t bad - it is well-edited, smoothly paced and has an appropriate mix of cringe-worthy lines and laugh-out-loud moments. All of the characters are natural and comfortable and seem to fit well with the real-life personalities of the actors who play them. It’s a shame that it opens after Valentine’s Day weekend, because it seems like the perfect date movie. However, for anyone who expects this star-studded film to be something beyond effortless archetypes, the film is likely to leave something to be desired.

“Like for Likes” opens in local theaters on Feb. 18.

‘Like for Likes’ a truly modern romantic tale
With all-star ensemble cast, film captures love in the social media age

The upcoming film “Like for Likes” tells the stories of three couples - from left, Kang Ha-neul and E Som, Yoo Ah-in and Lee Mi-yeon, and Kim Joo-hyuk and Choi Ji-woo - that involve social media. [CJ ENTERTAINMENT]

Lighthearted omnibus romance films have been around for awhile, especially since “Love Actually” hit the jackpot internationally in 2003, making it a regular visitor to both the big and small screens during the Christmas season. 

A number of Korean films have attempted to reenact the success by featuring more than one pair of people and trying to convey a heartwarming message that penetrates all the loosely connected stories. 

But until now, there hasn’t been a single movie that came close to the success of the original. 

But just when you think the fad has finally died out, another film of the same format is trying to reinvigorate the genre.

Titled “Like for Likes,” the film directed by filmmaker Park Hyun-jin of “Lovers of Six Years” (2008), is a contemporary love story that revolves around three couples and how their use of social media influences their relationships. 

The biggest charm of the film is its hardly believable all-star cast including Korean heartthrob Yoo Ah-in along with weighty actresses like Lee Mi-yeon and Choi Ji-woo, both of whom are appearing on the big screen for the first time in at least seven years. 

The central couple consists of Lee, who plays the star screenwriter Kyung-ah, and Yoo, who plays a character very much like himself in real life: a superstar actor. 

After one of Kyung-ah’s early works boosted Yoo’s character Jin-woo to immediate stardom, the two have been at each other’s throats for unclear reasons. 

Kyung-ah is aiming for a spectacular comeback in the drama scene, which wouldn’t be possible without Jin-woo, but he won’t accept the role, and their back-and-forth continues. 

The second couple is made up of Hallyu star Choi Ji-woo, who plays the attractive stewardess Joo-ran, and Kim Joo-hyuk, who plays her landlord as well as housemate. 

Joo-ran may be all that any man could wish for, but her naive attitude around them is hindering her from finding her future spouse and time is running out. 

Kim’s Seong-chan voluntarily coaches her to present herself nicely on social media to grab guys’ attention, but things start to change as their feelings toward each other enter into unknown territory. 

The most realistic and also relatable couple out of the three is the last one, consisting of Kang Ha-neul and model-turned-actress E Som. 

Kang plays Su-ho, a talented songwriter who has never been on a date before because of the complex he has about his hearing ability. E plays Na-yeon, a confident woman who first approaches Su-ho through social media and asks him out. 

“The hardest part in directing the film was differentiating each of them with distinctive stories and auras,” said director Park at a press event on Feb. 3. 

“However, I think the basic role of a director is bringing good actors to the set, and in that sense my struggle was a pleasant thing to worry about,” she added. 

Although the film draws on typical happy-ending love stories, Park tried to imbue her personal beliefs into the screenplay. 

“I revised the screenplay in order to make my female characters into independent figures,” she said. 

“I didn’t want it to seem like females being dragged along by males, which is something common in Korean romances,” she added.

“I definitely wanted to emphasize the female characters, which is why I endowed each and every one of them with concrete professions who are able to say and behave the way they want to.” 

The film opens nationwide on Feb. 18.

[HanCinema's Film Review] "Like for Likes"

Source: Hancinema.net (related CJW-KJH review only)

More intriguing was the romance between the two forty-somethings, Jeong Seong-chan (Kim Joo-hyeok) and Ham Joo-ran (Choi Ji-woo). They embody the popular "cohabitation" love story that is mixed with "we're just friends" and using social media to get Joo-ran a date. The two fuss like an old married couple and realize slowly that they want to be more than friends. What makes this relationship so winning is how casual they are. Yes, their friendship develops a bit too quickly, but it can be overlooked because of how they grow together as a direction correlation to their friendship. Kim is a master of facial expressions as the lively chef Seong-chan and he brings out the best in Choi.
