A Case of Bachelor Abduction is one of those films that starts with an intriguing idea but doesn’t quite know what to do with it. Set in historical Korea, it follows a group of mischievous male students who become victims of a mysterious woman’s assault. Determined to uncover her identity, they launch a strange investigation full of peeping, spying, and awkward misunderstandings.

At first, it feels like a light mystery with a comedic twist — something bold and different. The period setting is well done, and the costumes and atmosphere give the film some charm. There are a few funny and unpredictable moments that make it mildly entertaining.

But the tone is all over the place. What could have been a sharp or thought-provoking story ends up being an uneven mix of erotic farce and slapstick. The subject matter is handled too lightly, and the characters never grow beyond caricatures. By the end, it’s hard to know whether the film wanted to be a comedy, a mystery, or a social satire.

It’s not boring, but it’s definitely odd. A Case of Bachelor Abduction is a film that tries to be daring but ends up feeling confused — interesting in concept, but lacking depth or direction.
