It had its moments, but overall it's just gross, and very childish...even Dumb and Dumber was more sophisticated! I won't be bothering to watch the second, it just looks like more of the same. It was a bit risque when it the first one came out in 2002, which is what made people go out and see it, but its very tame compared to what you can see 24/7 on TV in Korea now, let alone in R19 movies at the cinema. Korean humour in general is VERY slapstick, about 40 years behind UK and American humour at least (think "Benny Hill"). It's strange for rapidly-developing Korea to be so far behind, but in case Korea's decades of military dictatorships are to blame, preventing the development of paticularly political satire. It's still very rare for public figures to be blatantly made fun of here, but that is a huge component of Western comedy. I also watched the first one primarily because it has Ha Ji-won in it.

Weird genre, haha. I heard of this movie, but never saw it, for the same reason I fell asleep watching the first American Pie: not my cup o’ tea.
