Summary borrowed from Wikipedia: Former teen idol Nam Hyeon-soo (Cha Tae-hyun) who thinks he is pretty popular is now in his thirties and working as a radio DJ. A young woman named Hwang Jeong-nam (Park Bo-young) sent stories about her being a single mother to the radio station Hyeon-soo worked at, telling him she is going to meet her father. When he finds out that he is the father of Jeong-nam when she comes to his apartment with her son Ki-Dong (Wang Seok-hyeon). He also finds out that Jeong-nam was his first love’s name and the other Jeong-nam’s real name is Jae-in. Jae-in and her son, Ki-dong.
My thoughts: This is a cute and funny movie with one of the most adorable child stars I’ve seen in a while. Seriously, Wang Seok-hyeon is great as 6-year-old Ki-dong.
There are some touching moments, some slightly cringe-worthy moments, but mostly this is a fun and heartwarming movie.
One of the best scenes: When they’re in the police station. That was good.
