My comment :
Ada orang yg demi pekerjaan menambah umurnya, ada juga yg mengurangi umur.  Nah ... film ini menceritakan ttg susahnya mendapat pekerjaan untuk yg tidak sekolah tinggi, walaupun punya ketrampilan dan pengalaman, dan sudah tidak muda lagi.  Terpaksa berdusta mengurangi umur supaya dapat pekerjaan.  Perusahaan juga kadang secara sepihak mem-PHK pegawai yg sudah senior demi merekrut pegawai yg masih muda dan fresh dengan gaji yg lebih kecil.  Kenyataannya memang demikian.

Jalan cerita film ini lumayan bagus dan kita menunggu-nunggu kapan dan bagaimana Lee So Young (34 tahun) yg bekerja dengan memakai identitas adiknya Lee So Jin (25 tahun), mengungkapkan jatidiri yg sebenarnya.  Nah, setelah dia mengaku dan sudah menjadi dirinya sendiri, baru lega deh nontonnya.  Ngomong-ngomong soal pemainnya, memang tidak ada yg ganteng dan cantik he he he ... kurang kinclong. Jang Na Ra mukanya memang babyface, jadi cocok untuk peran ini. Cuma sayang, sebagai designer penampilannya kurang gaya. Tapi film ini lumayan enak ditonton dan banyak unsur komedinya.

Ending : Happy
OST : enak ... suara Jang Na Ra bening ....

Rating : 7/10
