Asian Movies - Cyrano Agency (Si-Ra-No:Yeon-Ae-Jo-Jak-Do)

This is a pretty good romantic comedy. It was inspired by Edmond Rostand's classic play «Cyrano de Bergerac». Since it was based on a good classic it was a great success with a total of 2,172,786 tickets sold and was in the first place in box office in Korea for three weeks. The movie also won a Best Screenplay Award at the 31st Blue Dragon Awards. With all that, it's not to be missed.
The cast was well picked and definitely made the movie more interesting. The adaptation of the play as well as making it more up to date and giving it a unique modern perspective had given a great result. Really fun and a good way to relax and enjoy.

The Cyrano Agency consists of four people from a theater troupe and offers an unique cupid service with helping people who can't date to have a love life. With painstakingly elaborate tactics and covert schemes, they guarantee 100% of success in obtaining romance for their clients. The agency's boss and mastermind, Byung-Hoon, dreams that soon he will be able to revive his own theater.
But one day Cyrano Agency meets an unpredictable client Sang-yong. He has a successful career as financial analyst, but he is a failure in dating. He is in love with a lovable woman named Hee-joong and seeks out help from the agency. Ironically this woman is Byeong-hoon's ex-girlfriend.
