The Korean hit makes ample use of the fine chemistry between its two main stars and the inherent interest generated by such a workable premise.

‘The Quiz Show Scandal’ is a keenly-observed comic creation. As nutty as a Korean version of ‘It’s A Mad, Mad, Mad World’ should be while also succeeding in pulling off moments of mordant wit.

Witty, moving and, most important of all considering its intentions, scathing without jaundiced polemic, this is a remarkable film.
