1. [+620, -63] She lucked out with 'Intro to Architecture', she didn't get famous off of it for her good acting
2. [+541, -61] Coldly speaking, what ticketing power does Suzy even have?
3. [+194, -11] Suzy's acting is average. She's alright for an idol. And 'Intro to Architecture' as a movie was successful on its own and she happened to ride on its fame. Just because she does well in dramas doesn't mean she can think of movies as being easy. There's a big difference between turning on the TV and watching something for free and having to pay my own money to watch in the theaters. Ryu Seung Ryong's image is also negative these days so the two leads have no impact as a whole and the plot itself isn't enough to draw viewers in... Either way, I'm sure this movie was an opportunity for Suzy to learn a lot about acting in the process.
4. [+159, -37] Can we just admit that her popularity is a bit of a bubble. She's not that great in terms of skills or visuals. She lucked out in the timing of her works.
5. [+107, -21] I don't think anyone expected a movie like this to hit daebak anyway
6. [+88, -12] She got popular off of the image she conveyed in 'Intro to Architecture' but she can't rely on that image for the rest of her career, she needs to build on her acting skills too...
7. [+62, -10] I wouldn't have minded if the role was someone that played off of Suzy's young, fresh image but a character like a pansori genius requires a considerable level of acting and they chose Suzy for it? ㅡㅡ I don't know what they thought going with her for such a heavy movie. I don't really care to watch it, although I am curious to see Lee Dong Hwi of 'Reply 1988' fame to see how he did in it.
8. [+60, -11] Nevermind this sophomore jinx talk, her acting just didn't live up to par... she lucked out on 'Intro to Architecture', not because of her good acting. She seriously lucked out for what little talent she actually does have.

1. [+2,528, -145] The distributor is CJ and if even CJ can't save this movie, it's pretty much stuck in a coma right now...
2. [+2,173, -128] Every single day two months before its release it was put up on the main page of Naver... proves that it doesn't matter how hard you promote a movie, people will watch it on their own if it's good enough by word of mouth
3. [+1,671, -164] She didn't even do any of the sori, kept cutting it off to do the easy parts... there was nothing that rang my heart in regards to that
4. [+1,871, -456] Suzy should just stick to shooting pictorials. This is a piece of advice, stop affecting others with your work.
5. [+1,062, -336] Sad that results aren't reflecting how much work they put into it
6. [+657, -115] The movie's failure is summed up simply by it being boring, Suzy being bad at pansori and acting, and Ryu Seung Ryong ruining his image with this as a result. Suzy, please just stick to shooting CFs, at least for the sake of movie and drama lovers ㅡㅡ fortunately this movie itself was boring but if it was actually good and Suzy had ruinedit, I'd be so mad ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
7. [+628, -121] The lead is the problem. Who would actually pay their own money to watch a movie led by one of the worst actors in the country?
8. [+599, -95] Think about it... she lucked out with 'Intro to Architecture'... what has she done since then?
9. [+533, -83] Even the movie poster looks boring
10. [+494, -76] Reminds me of another article yesterday talking about how the movie was so bad that it angered them ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
11. [+410, -31] So what happened to all the people who promised they'd go watch and that it'd be surely a daebak because it was Suzy ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ Even her singing pop songs doesn't bring me goosebumps, how is her pansori supposed to bring me to tears? It'd be weird to even expect that level of acting out of her
12. [+364, -22] A movie is not some drama that you can watch from the comfort of your own home while flipping through channels ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ it's something I have to take $10 out of my wallet to pay for, who would actually shell out that kind of cash to watch Suzy do pansori? ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ The movie industry is ruthless because people have to actually pay for it.
