Ja-yu-eui eon-deok

Movie is quite boring.I think story is little bit too short.Simple movie for 15+

Telling the film in a nonlinear fashion may seem like a gimmick, but the mixed up pages made it seem plausible. I enjoyed the subtle humor and gentle nature of the film, as well as the little jokes between the Koreans and the Japanese main character. Koreans must really appreciate Eric Rohmer!

Such an ordinary story, which tries to deliver little messages, whether the simplicity is intended or just underdeveloped story, so thus it just look and feel the same like our life in that part of our situation in life.

I don't even know how to describe this lousy movie. From the very beginning when the guy showed up, the movie was already doomed. The main character was such a sloppy guy, not just by look, but his appearance simply knocked us off immediately. What a way to act like that? A man who didn't even know how to walk properly like a man, he wore his shoes like wearing a pair of flip-flop, dragged his heels on the ground with such unbearable sloppiness without energy. This guy went back to Korea to find a woman? For what? Then the awkward scenes continued again and again in a coffee shop that rarely had any customer. Then that woman owner did awkward and unconvincing behavior trying to hook him up. The scenes were so awkward and embarrassing, all the cast in this movie looked like amateurs randomly found in the street to play a role. The dialog, the acting, the...Jesus, are you guys telling me this lousy awkward turkey won couple of awards? And the first two reviewers gave this joke 8 out of 10? Are we seeing the same movie or, what?

I was pleasantly surprised by this beautifully written, directed, filmed and acted film which only clocked in merely 64mins. I'll look forward to seeing more of Hong's films.
