In a culture where blood ties are very important, It's really touching how a genuine happiness and real family was created as a fake family. It's sad how the society defines who we call our family are. For some people, family isn't always the one you're born into. For some people, it's just as simple as sharing experiences with, accepting them as they are, and people that want them in their lives. The message of the film is just beautiful.

I watched this film as it was recommended given the similarities with Parasite. But it was different. It didn't have the thrilling and surprising impact that Parasite had. If you were looking for that, you won't find it here. In fact, the story was slow-paced, but It got me immersed in it. Both films have the right emotions that will give you a reality check. A film that not everyone will like, but definitely a great film with depth!
