An orphan, Do-Jin, has been a swindler his whole life. His newest scam involves him being an exorcist priest.  He earns a lot of money and goodwill with this scam. Chaos ensues when one of his scam victims appears in front of him and his partner.

The Feel-Good Part

It is a funny and light movie as you watch Do-Jin pretend to perform exorcisms and narrowly escape with his lies by the skin of his teeth.

The Disappointing Factor

The movie is slightly childish at certain points, putting off some viewers.

In-Depth Analysis

This movie is light and funny as Do-Jin fools people with his scams. It is symbolic of the greed for money that he has. It also shows that your bad deeds will always catch up to you.

Star Power

The movie stars Lee Gyoo Jung, Song Young Chang, and Lee Myung Ja and is directed by Yi Dong Hwan.

Overall Opinion

This movie is imaginative and one can watch it for a break. When Do-Jin meets the woman whom he has conned in the past, the ensuing chaos is worth watching.
