Seoul Vibe

Seoul Vibe (2022) was really fun to watch! I really enjoyed it. This movie not that much high exiting but, good to watch. I will definitely recommend it to everyone to watch this movie. Korean most of the movie's are really great to watch. And this one is also not different from others. This is definitely good to watch. In the movie sounds and video quality was great too. I do not know which platforms are offering to watch this movie but, I am watching on Netflix and good though. If you want to explore more than you should definitely watch this movie. I hope you will not be disappointed.

22 January 2025 Watched H Dubbed On Netflix.

Seoul Vibe may not have all that's advertised in it, but beneath it's corniness there's a sociocultural read of the 1980s South Korea. The American dream of a young man from a torn down neighborhood. The gold wear, fast cars and sneaker worship tells the miraculous story of an economy with it's flood gates broke open. Seoul Vibe in this regard lives up to it's name. Cast put up a vibrant performance portraying playful youngsters. When Dong-Wook mocks the patriotism but stay behind for the duty it shows the natural and societal attitude of a generation. It's a movie with a fresh vibe to pass the time in a fun way.

Apart from the fact that the film is rather conventional and not very original, it's atmosphere, the set up and the characters are good enough to lead you to the end.

The real dissapointement come from the chasing and racing parts. It feels too fake, too much CGI. And when it's not CGI, most of them feel too slow.

The soundtrack is quite nice.

You could have thought that with all these sponsors, they could have done better. A point that will probably irritate more than one. Especially when famous drinks explod exactly like in a commercial, this was clearly not necessary.

Worth the watching anyway.

Korean cinema has shown well that it can make any story beautifully. This movie recounts politics or social events without bothering the viewer, the author has managed to make a movie about the abuse of power, and by adding comedy and excitement, and the believable acting of the actors without boring the audience, the audience entertain We usually like Korean cinema because of its very beautiful dramas, but in this movie we can see the ability to make different movies from Korea. The actors have handled the roles well and have chosen and performed them correctly. I suggest you watch this movie with your friends and family and enjoy it and be sure to rate it. Thankful.

It's a crime, the way that CERTAIN US-BASED STREAMING PLATFORMS are all rushing to buy their way into Korean and Japanese markets by just green-lighting every lousy script in the local language they can get their hands on, and then producing what is basically just American television in Korean (also, Japanese). It's a crime because they are buying out the great creative powerhouse of our generation and gentrifying it -- within ten years they are going to destroy the local creative industry and replace it with Disneyland. It's like the Mission District and Williamsburg all over again. Netflix is basically the stinking sulfuric acid that dissolves culture.

This lousy turd of a Netflix production in no way resembles the flavor and genius of Korean cinema and tv drama that we know and love. Okay, we got that out of the way. But while we're at it ,it also doesn't resemble 1988 in any way shape or form - not America in 1988 never mind Seoul in 1988. I didn't bother to look at the credits, but it's 100% certain that this thing was made by first-generation Korean Americans from LA who weren't even born in 1988. So there is no nostalgia to like about it. Beyond that, it just feels surreal, how lazy you have to be to not even research the period right. In the 90s, people were making 70s period pieces that could pass... maybe it has to do with the collapse of culture from the internet, but it's just weird how far this is from portraying the "vibe" of a generation ago. Nothing like Korean cinema, nothing like 1988.
