My Boyfriend is Type B (B형 남자친구) by Choi Seok-won (최석원) 2004
18 December 2007A typical and not so great Korean romantic comedy, and further showing the stereotype that Korean men seem to be quite the bastards. This guy doesn’t deserve this girl in the slightest. She is cute and nice and puts up with way too much from him. And the break into the one song is lame and not really needed. This guy is such a loser, and should not get the girl in the slightest. And she doesn’t even confront him about stealing and using her credit card. Lame.
Han Mi (Han Ji Hye 한지혜) is a beautiful college student who wants to find love. The one she meets is the loser Young Bin (Lee Dong Geon 이동건) who lives out of a Sauna, dumps girls for no reason, and has an expensive car, but no job. The meet by chance when she accidentally texts him, and then they run into each other as she gets off a bus, and their phones gets switched and hers gets broken, and she tries to steal his. Her roommate and cousin Chae Young (Shin ee 신이) runs a dating agency that runs on blood type, and she hates type B, which is of course what Young Bin is, while Han Mi is a nice A. So she tries to keep them apart, but Han Mi will have nothing of it.
REVIEW CONTAINS SPOILERS…
Young Bin has no money, and no place, and even takes Han Mi’s credit card and uses it without saying anything. He also borrows her place for when his father (Baek Il seob 백일섭) comes to town, making Han Mi stay up late and not study for her midterm.
When Young Bin gets his bills paid for by a friend (Yoo Tae Woong 유태웅) in exchange for a date with Han Mi she finally has had enough, and breaks it off with him.
Young Bin realizes he was wrong, and manages to win Han Mi back.
••••
The problem is that Young Bin can be galant, but mostly he is just an ass, and Han Mi deserves better than this asshole.
