Everything About My Wife / <내 아내의 모든 것> 2012

Directed by: Min Gyoo-dong, 민규동
Release date: May 2012

Doo-hyeon met, fell for, and married Jeong-in while they are both in Japan and she had sworn to speak only Japanese and was playing at the part of a “submissive Japanese woman”. Once she is back in Korea, she reverts to the annoying, neurotic, self-centered motor-mouth she apparently always was. After seven years of marriage to this bizarre woman, Doo-hyeon wants out. He tries to get a job relocation to the boondocks, but she follows him. He hires a Casanova to seduce his wife so she will have to leave him first but she won’t fall for the guy. Doo-hyeon is ready try anything to get her out of his life. But then when he succeeds …

If you are a really, really big fan of Im Soo-jeong, then that might be a reason to watch this film. Otherwise, don’t bother, it is long and tiresome. The humor is thin on the ground and the plot pretty weak. Just lots and lots of on-screen time of Im running her mouth. The only humor for me was the epilogue while the credits were running.  
My take: 1 star
 Jeong-in (Im Soo-jeong) gets snarky
at a company dinner party.
