I appreciate this movie
The film is very similar in theme to another Korean film, Suddenly Last Summer, which is repulsion and attraction. But here, the director of such excellent and award-winning films as Night Flight and No Regret, this theme is upgraded almost to the maximum. Two young men have an intimate relationship during their military service and release their sexual energy. Youn Young has now left the army and is not so sure of his orientation and no longer wants to be in the presence of Gi Tae-ho, who has to stay in the army and is very uneasy about losing Young-a. A psychological drama ensues, the plot of which I will not describe, but I want to highlight above all the good work of both actors, they reached almost to the bottom, not only by being naked, but also by rolling in disgusting mud. Life is often cruel and when we lose someone, how often does it make us act desperate, and for that I appreciate the film.Was this review helpful to you?
ACTING/CAST: They can do anger, they can fight, they can wrestle naked, and do drunk. So I guess their acting wasn't too bad.
MUSIC: Unmemorable.
REWATCH VALUE: Nope.
OVERALL: I'm not very fond of crazy, abusive relationships, especially where one actually does something criminal like drug them. Throughout the show I was hoping that maybe it would have some redemption, that it would end happily like Suddenly Last Summer...
