The upcoming romantic comedy film “What A Man Wants” features the tempestuous affairs of four middle-aged characters.

“Why is it that we are constantly lonely, even if we fall in love, even if we get married?” reads the film’s tagline.



Shin Ha-kyun stars as Bong-soo, who once dreamt of being a top chef but is now the meek husband of Mi-young, played by Song Ji-hyo.

Bong-soo is led into the world of social media dating through his friend Seok-geun, played by Lee Sung-min.
