Production and release
The budget for the film is estimated at €5 million. It was officially released on February 5, 2003.
Reception
Variety called the film an "irreverent slice of nonsense about two affable losers who are blissfully unaware of their own moronic ineptitude."
Abus de Ciné wrote, "to be clear, the film is pitiful, the script nonexistent, the actors are average, and the main character (Mr. Youn) doesn't do the kind of heavy-handed humor we'd expect."
