the story started off lighthearted and funny, we had 2 teenagers (yes both 30 year old mains were acting as 18 year olds, but they did a really great job showing the youthfulness), who wanted to make money, Go Taek Il left his house and ended up working at a chinese restaurant, while Woo Sang Pil became a loan shark but he didn't know how dangerous that job was.
I do fee like they brushed past the key points a little too fast, but since it was a webtoon it must've been hard to squeezed all of that in a 1 hour 45 min movie.
I really liked how each character had their own backstory and traumas, usually movies just focus on the main and everyone else just exists in their world. by the middle part we got to see the emotional baggage the side characters had, but I do think they solved everything way too easily. the tension was going up up up and then it disappeared.

still though I did highly enjoy the characters and it made me laugh a little and sometimes that's all I need. not everything needs to be dramatic.

I never rewatch things but maybe there's hope for a 2nd season ;)

This movie is great If you are looking for something light and fun, yet meaningful to watch without the need to shed tears! The story is character-focused and has a message to convey but it doesn't dive deep into characters' emotions.

Don't expect much comedy or action, however, don't underestimate the fun from watching the great cast. Loved Jung min, as always, his acting flows naturally and never fails to impress me. Ma Dong Seok comes in a new look and it's hilarious XD Hae in is still a cute puppy, and I was so glad at the honorable cameo appearance of Park Hae Joon!!

The movie might have ended abruptly but I'm glad everything was kept simple. Overall, it's worth watching!

ENTRETENIDA

Esta película no es nada del otro mundo, sin embargo es entretenida y no se te hace tan pesada. Una trama realmente tranquila, de unos jóvenes que no saben qué hacer con su vida y que van teniendo ciertos problemas a lo largo de su trayecto, al mismo tiempo que comentan sobre su ambiente familiar. Contiene un poco de acción, drama y sobre todo comedia. Nada mal para cuando quieras ver algo que no sea tan pesado, con mucha historia. Lo único malo es que no profundiza casi nada en algunos personajes, cosa que en verdad veo normal, ya que es una película, pero no hubiera estado mal haber dicho más de ellos y conocerlos y no solo centrarse en uno. A pesar de ello, ha estado mejor de lo que esperaba. Muy recomendada.

Ho iniziato questo film perché mi dava delle buone vibes ma sinceramente ci sono rimasta di merda. Appena ho capito fosse finito ci sono rimasta perchè effettivamente parlando non sembra avere tanto senso, c’è una storia, una morale ma non si intravede proprio una fine, è finito così, senza avere uno scopo preciso.
Semplicemente racconta la storia di questo ragazzo che a giovane età si sente grande e sogna solo di vivere su una grande isola con le persone a cui vuole bene, non ha mai pensato a cosa volesse fare e non sembra preoccuparsene. Sembra essere una persona a cui frega solo del presente e questo aspetto in sé è bello perchè pensiamo e ci prepariamo così tanto per il futuro che finiamo per non soffermarci sul presente e quindi a non viverlo pienamente.
Lui poi mi piace anche per il suo carattere da imbecille, non sa combattere eppure aiuta e se gli accade un'ingiustizia subito agisce. Certo, dato che non sa combattere, questa cosa non va a suo favore ma comunque ci servono persone così al mondo, sono coraggiose e vogliono la giustizia. Sono brave persone.
In sé questo film quindi racconta una parte suppongo fondamentale della sua vita e della vita delle persone che gli stanno attorno, vengono raccontati sbagli che ti segnano ma senza cui non avresti mai imparato importanti lezioni di vita.
Dato questo tipo di trama senza scopo ci sono rimasta male ma posso dire che se volete qualcosa di semplice, non impegnativo, che ti fa ridere e non annoia, penso che guardare questo film possa fare al caso vostro. Ha un bel vibes.
