When Jang Dong Gun is in a movie you will think WOW, must be a spectacular! NOT
This movie got so many good review but for me it was just BORING!
No offence about the actors! They are great! And especially Jang Dong Gun
But I just don't see the Jang Dong Gun in Typhoon & Taegukgi!
And he wasn't even the 'good' guy!

Well like I said before the movie was boring!
The beginning was boring, the middle part was boring, the ending was boring!
I almost fall in sleep!!
The only scene what got my attention was the dead of Dong Su
And actually some scenes of Sang Taek [the one who telling the story]
And the title Friend! When are you a friend?
