"C'est Si Bon" is about first love during the 1970s, "Detective K: Secret of the Lost Island" is a thrilling comedy. We looked at these movies according to 5 key words, ASACC: Acting, Story, Association, Creativity, Completeness.

● Acting

"C'est Si Bon"

There's a reason why mellow movies are all going to actress Han Hyo-joo. She's pure but provocative and reminds everyone of their first love.

Kim Myung-min and Oh Dal-soo's teamwork are like natural reflections. These multi-players support and defend each other in this movie.

● Story

There was a music salon called "C'est Si Bon" in Myeongdong. Singers like Jo Yeong-nam, Lee Jang-hee, Song Chang-sik and Yoon Hyeong-joo went there and classics like "I Will Give You Everything" was born there. This is a story 'everyone' knows.

"Detective K: Secret of the Lost Island"

This sequel is the upgraded version that's following the first movie which gathered 4.7 million audiences. There's no jinxing it.

● Association

"Detective K: Secret of the Lost Island"

A troublemaker detective and his assistant is something we have seen since "Sherlock Holmes". Kim Myung-min says, "We look better together!"

● Creativity

"C'est Si Bon"

The back-story of a movie is always a welcome addition. And the story related to the birth of a classic from the 1970s is interesting.

"Detective K: Secret of the Lost Island"

This breaks the bias of comedies. We can't figure out the characters that appear and the conclusion of the movie is also quite hard to predict.

● Completeness

"C'est Si Bon"

The reason audiences go to the movies is not to confirm the productions' intentions. The movie seems to have lost the sentimentality of the audience by focusing too much on the characters that existed in real life.

"Detective K: Secret of the Lost Island"

The confidence from the first movie seems to have come over to the second. An overflow in content may seem too much at times.
