Watched the korean romantic comedy 'My Boyfriend is Type B' (
형 남자친구
on my phone. Based on the concept that blood type impacts compatibility and personality, a type A girl (super cute
Han Ji-Hye) meets a type B (
Lee Dong-Geon)...
type A girls are shy and meek and easy to take advantage of, and type B
guys are selfish jerks (who inevitably abuse and dump type A girls)...
can love overcome their pre-destined blood type doom?!? Does the Selfish A-hole actually have a heart of gold? (of course since this is a romantic comedy, so the answer is yes).
There are some incongruities that i can't quite figure out (first he doesn't have a house, then he suddenly does have a house... but at least its not 100% paint-by-the-numbers. But mostly the thing that kept me watching was Han Ji-Hye (did I mention how cute she is?)
Both leads do a good job with their part (Lee Dong-Geon plays a good A-hole!) and the supporting character of the cousin played by Shin-Hee is good too (you may remember her as the oversexed upper classmate in Sex is Zero).
Its entertaining for what it is... 5/10.
