Running Towards Your Past
Stop and Take a Breather for a minute. Are you out of breath? We are always thinking and Running away from something. The Liberation and solidarity at the same time lag when coming to a vague sense of loss. Not everyone has an innocent and carefree youth to cherish and look back on. There are individuals everywhere that walk in the same footsteps of the character Jin Soo. We might not see it occurring in our daily lives. The film has that ambiance of a true story.
Relatively new Director Oh Won-Jae did a professional job mixing addicting and compelling background music with the bleak winter cold backdrop of the countryside. Oh Won-Jae has worked as an assistant director and director of several independent films, including "Bad Boy" and "Hunting." His low-budget independent movie "Land of Stranger," gaining praise at the 19th Jeonju International Film Festival competition, caught the attention of Jang Dong Yoon. JDY elected to collaborate with this director for his next project, coming off his highly successful drama, The Tale of Nokdu of 2019.
Jang Dong-Yoon's glowing appearance was memorable. A movie that reminds you of your memories of school days, a film that draws on the darkness of wandering youth with an overarching gaze. It will connect with individuals who had similar experiences, but anybody can reminisce about an old friendship that feeling of hubris in their life. Seo Byuk Joon's presence perturbs and comforts Jang Dong-Yoon character a great deal hence what the movie revolves around. The actors' ages should not sway your decisions to stay away. Han Yi Jin depicts a delinquent crude High School youth appearance. All the actors do a marvelous job in this low budget independent film.
The warmth, sadness, freedom of the Jang Dong Yoon running scenes percolated through the audience. It is not a perfect film, but people will respect the high-quality edited shots in creating this feature film. I believe this filmmaker has a bright future with unlimited potential. The piano music will yank you into this story, but every person is unique so that it might detract you away. You never know. Give this a chance, and you might have found something that you might enjoy.
Final Rating: 8.55/10
Acting: 9.22/10
Rewatch Value: I will watch this again when time permits itself still. In my eyes an excellent movie.
