A Funny Thai Rom-Com

Hello Stranger is a romantic comedy about two strangers who meet while on holiday in Korea. While not all that original, this Thai movie manages to be entertaining

The comedic timing is on point and the dialogue between the two strangers (who have agreed not to reveal their names in order to be more honest with each other) is gut-bustingly funny.

I especially loved the send up of Korean tv and movie culture. Korean dramas or "Koreanovelas" as they're known here in the Philippines are everywhere and Hello Stranger plays on this very well.

Hello Strangers loses a bit of steam near the ending but the ending is satisfactory.
