Clocking in at almost two hours that you never want to end, My Little Bride is simply just what Korean romantic comedy needs at a time of trite formula and My Sassy Girl rip-offs. Remember the young Jenny from Endless Love 1? Well, if you have adored her on her nonstop dripping tears, for sure, her role in this movie will prove to you that she's not just for drama.

College wanna-be playboy Park Sang-min (played by Kim Rae-won, Love Story in Harvard, Attic Cat) arrives home to meet his childhood friend Boeun (Moon Geun-young, Endless Love 1), now a fifteen year old girl in high school, who’s also been called home for an important family matter. Boeun’s grandfather started a friendship with Sang-min’s grandfather years ago during war, and before Sang-min’s grandfather died, they agreed to have their children marry. A problem arose after the death because they both had sons, so Boeun’s grandfather decided to pass down the pact to the next generation, so he could keep his promise with his friend when he meets him in death. Boeun’s grandfather, “allegedly” on his deathbed, gets the two families to agree, and springs it on Sang-min and Boeun to their dismay, and they immediately refuse. Soon, out of guilt and promise, they do get married, but between Boeun’s high-school life and Sang-min’s not-so-surprising position, they’ve somehow got to figure out how to live with each other.

The fun all seems to start when Boeun is referred to as a girl, and she claims that in the old days, women her age would be married by that time. What a perfect prelude to grandfather’s question. While it may seem like taboo to match a college student up with a fifteen-year-old girl, especially when the guy initially seems borderline perverted, the naivity of most of the relationship is one of the more endearing qualities of the film. The actors have that compatibility to give you the feeling of their being child-hood friends, and the movie always continues on giving information and backstory even as it comes to an end.

I rate this movie with five stars! Kabadtrip ung April Snow! Di talaga maganda magending ang mga korean movies/series. Good thing, My little Bride didnt disappoint us. Super love this movie! cute talaga! ^_~
