Though it appears to be loosely based on Charles Dickens'novel of the same title, O Sanghun's debut film "Great Expectations," is unlike the originally literary masterpiece in that it is a romantic comedy centering on two young unemployed characters: Changsik (played by Im Changjeong) and Miyeong (Kim Seona). Through the surprising interactions of the two penniless bums, the movie takes a unique and contemporary look at life's great coincidences. A psychology-major and graduate of a top-notch college, Changsik always loses money on horse races and receives mistreatment from his sister-in-law, who was actually his elementary school classmate. Unlike her beautiful sister, who is a host on a home shopping network, entertainer hopeful Miyeong idles her time away at the counter of a video shop. Their fortune appears to change drastically when they fatally encounter each other and quarrel over a 100 won coin - a reminder of present Korean society where the number of the young and unemployed exceeds 1 million across the nation. The two soon become the eyewitnesses of a hit-and-run accident caused by the members of a criminal ring. The two are soon tempted to make huge money after hearing the announcement that 5 million won will be given to anyone who witnessed the scene of the car accident which killed old man Hwang.
