Yes, sad, but so realistic and natural. Tiffany Chu is incredible to watch, every minute of it. It breaks one's heart to see what she goes through. One of my best movies this year. I also enjoyed the music.
The writing, directing, and cinematography are fantastic with a beautiful score as the cherry on top, but the acting can be lackluster at points bringing the over all experience down. The acting is good at parts, sometimes great, but when everything else is at it's a game, the acting sticks out like a sore thumb. Over all, really well executed. I do recommend.
I'm very glad I saw this movie. It gives a very lifelike and unique glimpse into the lives of a regular brother and sister who are dealing with a difficult situation. This is exactly the kind of movie that I like. It feels so real and so relatable while also letting us see some people from a culture that may be slightly different than our own.
It really shows just how similar we are all while at the same time being unique. This film has the power to bring people closer together. Koreatown is not that far away from the homes of a lot of the people who will view this beautiful film. And yet this gives us a chance to see it from a new point of view, to see how different it is and how similar it is at the same time. How similar all the people are. The acting is wonderful, as are the directing and the story. Highly recommend.

This movie has been on my to watch list for a few months.
i really didn't think it would be great but i was way wrong.
a very powerful story with an incredible actress that makes you cherish the things you have. A very common story in asian families to take care of your parents yourself opposed to putting them in a home or hospice.
it shows the burden on family and the guilt that comes with it.

Realistic, stark and rough film about making a go of it under very difficult circumstances.
Really carried by Tiffany Chu, hope we get to see much more of her. Well done.
