Synopsis by Nathan Southern
Soo ah-Hwang helmed this zany Korean-language romantic comedy, with touches of the macabre. It concerns Byeong-hee (Park Hee-soon), an emotionally troubled young man forever attempting to kill himself - and failing miserably. One day, following such an attempt, a mysterious and eccentric young woman named Soo-kang (Kang Hye-jeong) waltzes into his house, botches the latest suicide attempt, and proceeds to wrest control of the household - meanwhile keeping an eye out for a neighbor boy with whom she is infatuated. This film is not to be confused with the other Korean movie of 2009 entitled Why Did You Come to My House, actually a telemovie starring Lee So-yeon and Kim Seung-soo.
