Wet Dreams (2002)

I'm in love xD

Story:
At first i thought since it's Korean they'll probably like barely talk about sex and it's mostly going to be another story... WRONG ON SO MANY LEVELS! Even I was shocked at how deep they went into the sex theme ok let's not go ever board they go into enough not to make it porn... It felt like some sort of Korean sex ed tape xD but with a romance lots of comedy and touching moments :)

Acting/Cast:
Oh the cast was just perfect I wouldn't change anyone they are all to perfect for the roles they played ESPECIALLY the teen boys...
They're acting was so real at time I was wondering if there weren't "doing it" for real xD
They are all very funny and great guys and you get attached to them by the end of the film :)
Of course MY Kim Sun Ah just priceless acting as always, I love this girl so much cause even if she always plays a sweet character her acting adds a little "je ne sais quoi" to the character and to the movie/drama

Music:
I was to focused on the movie to focus on the music xD
*sorry sorry*
Ah! but the last song I do remember ... NO SPOILERS sorry you'll have to watch it to know xD

Rewatch:
Heck yeah it's just to funny it's one of those movies you can watch when bored on a rainy day when your sad or simply just want a simple but good laugh or with friends (I do not advise you to watch it with family members cause it will be very awkward :S)

Overal:
10 out of 10 it just won my hear I love it so much I'm gonna add it to my fav. movie list right now :D

"But I Think He Is a Dull-Looking Dork! Can't You Tell The Difference Between 'Dull' and 'Natural?'"

Known locally as South Korea’s first “American Pie”-like comedy, “Wet Dreams” is relatively low on gross-out visuals and rather higher on innocent romance. Produced by “Shiri” helmer Jacky Kang’s KangJeGyu Films and directed by NYU grad Jeong Cho-shin (who made clever crime comedy “Jakarta”), the well-packaged story of a hormonal teen who decides he’ll lose his virginity only to a woman he loves has done robust biz since bowing early November and would make an amusing curio in Asian-themed events.

Inspired by "American Pie" which did not sell well in South Korea, this movie was very successful in Korea which led to its sequel!

This film is available for free on Dailymotion, but is broken into 5 parts for viewing. Its companion sequel Wet Dreams 2 is available for free at Dramacool.

Kim Sun Ah wasn't bad on her comical timing; since I don't remember her in another comedy before, I cannot compare her in
any other comedy movie.

So Jung (Kim Ki Yeon) was also great as far as her comic timing and her supporting the main stories!

This movie is basically two love stories in one, with a bunch of pubescent stunts from the three younger male cast members, Seok Gu, Sang Min and Young Je filling in the scenes between the two love stories.

Dong Hyun (Noh Hyung-wook) is a middle-school student who is beginning his journey as a boy becoming a man; his object of affection is the new student-teacher (trainee student) Yoo Ri (Kim Sun Ah).

I love the way that Yoo Ri 'handles' the boys' pubescent yearnings in a professional yet caring way, the same way that she handles the teachers who also are interested in her.

I also like the sex jokes, as I was that age once and they remind me how "getting laid" and finding out about women pre-occupied most of my free time (which, living on a farm, was very little time at all for me!).

What I loved most, though, was the one scene where Dong Hyun's mother (uncredited and I cannot find the actress's name online) showed Dong Hyun that she was a great mother to him!

Yoo Ri, it turns out, is a former student of Byung Chul under which she is student teaching (Lee Bum Soo), also a bachelor who gave up years ago on women and comes to school looking like a bum instead of a teacher. he rejects Yoo Ri's advances, and still treats her like his former students, making her drink soda pop instead of saki when eating together.

Yoo Ri is persistent though, and gradually convinces her love interest since high school, Byung Chul, that she is both a good teacher and that she is a woman of legal age who likes him!

Dong Hyun and Byung Chul have a lot in common, besides their love for Yoo-Ri: both men also "grow" through their association with Yoo-Ri.

The teacher Byung Chul finds that he can be loved by a woman, who he finally grows to see Yoo-Ri as, and not just as one of his former high school students. He is given a reason, the love of a woman, to start actually dressing like the good-looking man he is, and he also begins to see a future with someone he finally found to love him!

Dong Hyun actually grows more than his male teacher; first interested in touching and sleeping with his female teacher, he matures rapidly and realizes that Yoo-Ri's wants and needs are more important than just his need of a night in bed with a female.

While he tries unsuccessfully tried to admit his love to Yoo-Ri, he finds that she is actually is in love with his original teacher, Byung Chul.

Knowing the truth about Yoo-Ri's love, Dong Hyan matures quickly into adulthood, rigging the outcome the way Rick [in Casablanca (1942) American romantic drama film] did with Ilsa and Laszlo.

I loved the atmosphere of a high school setting, which made it seem real enough to lose myself for awhile. I felt that I was back in high school; the only difference is that us guys back then made bets about getting to see the high school girls' panties, bras, whatever, but not the teachers!

The music and cinematography was good, but lacking somewhat in editing I thought.


I cut the score for this movie for a couple of main reasons: excessive (probably for some) sexual jokes and the editing lacked that of Seven Samurai (1954) Caijin (2012) or Xuan Zang (2016).


This movie reminded me of Beautiful Teacher in Torture Hell (1985), as far as the classroom scenes; Caijin (2012) as far as the students working together; Crazy Little Thing Called Love (2010) as far as 'first love'; Cry Me A Sad River (2018) as far as the students bullying each other; Ditto (2000) as far as student life; Middle School Student A (2014) as far as students interactions; Sex Is Zero 1 and 2 (2002, 2007) as far as campus hijinx; Su-ki-da (2005) as far as old/young romances; The Classic (2003) as far as high school romance; and Virgin Snow (2007) as far as impossible romances.

It especially reminds me of Middle School Student A (2016) as far as boy/girl relationships; Jenny & Juno (2005) as far as teenage relationships and maturity; Marbling (2014) as far as inexperienced lovers; My Love (2021) as far as adolescent romance; Nisekoi (2018) another high school comedy with loads of inuendo; On Your Wedding Day (2018) as far as adolescent romance; Samaritan Girl (2004) as far as old/young relationships and Who Slept with Her (2006) as far as high school sexual tension.

RE-WATCH VALUE: Yes!
