Korean Movie Review - 'Wet Dreams' (몽정기)

its interesting to see how profound an impact a movie like 'American Pie' can have on international cinema...  well I'm not sure about other nations, but it definitely had an impact on Korean cinema.  a good example is the classic film ' Sex is Zero' (색즉시공), and another good example is this film, with the English title 'Wet Dreams' (in Korean 몽정기).

In the bigger picture 'Wet Dreams' is not really an American Pie type comedy... its really about a college student majoring in Education who has harbored a secret crush on her former high school teacher for years. She manages to get assigned to be his student assistant teacher and then struggles to get him to realize the situation despite his rigid 'once a student, always a student' point of view.

But that's really only half the movie, the other half focuses on four over hormoned boys in their class who's main goals in life are centered around sex, a subject they have a very limited understanding of of course.    Being in an all-boys school means most of their pent up hormones center around their attractive new young student instructor.  We see a repitition of the 'student-teacher' crush story line developing here with one of the boys who's fixation is more than just trying to find out what color underwear the student teacher is wearing.

Despite the 'parallelism', in some ways these two very different plotlines don't necessarily fit well together, but overall both are entertaining to some degree.  There are some funny moments,  but since the boys are only like 14-15, and the teacher girl is too innocent an idealistic,  you may feel somewhat cheated if you are looking for a genuine 'sex comedy' that contains actual sex.  Oh, plus the end is rather (extremely?) cheesy.  :-P

5/10.
