Cecily K. Dec 21 2020 1:06 am I personally enjoyed this more than Mr. Zoo that was also released in the same month. Simple storyline with good amount of humor.

scarletsungrok Sep 13 2020 12:07 am gives me strong disney channel movie vibes, and i really enjoyed that. it’s family friendly and the story is also very unique. hope to see more korean dramas and movies about animals/zoo-keeping !! also kim sung ohs character in this movie was incredible, he deserves more good guy roles like this, he’s so sweet and charming ^^

Yam Jan 18 2020 9:58 am I am from the Philippines but I love Korean movies and I want to see this movie.

mx ot7 Jan 07 2020 2:44 pm I can’t wait to watch this

Jae Dec 17 2019 8:38 am Reading the synopsis already made me laugh, watching the trailer also. I guess this is going to be hit, just like extreme job, because that's what I felt when I watched its trailer.

jess Jul 20 2019 1:16 am I guess this is flying under the radar cos it doesn't feature any big stars. But the writer-director Son Jae-gon has two brilliant and original comedies to his name: My Scary Girl and Villain and Widow. Really looking forward to this one.
