too short
i get this a short film - but u blink and this is over - so really donno how i feel, after watching this. how can u judge and come to any conclusions from 7min's (if that) of film?!?
u get a rough idea of what is going on, but how can u judge the motivation behind their words an actions?!? is Jung Soo really the bad-guy (a load of commenters r calling him) we forgetting he's gay and probably in the closet - deep in the closet(?) so maybe his indecisiveness and breaking up with Ho Bin, didn't steam from him not loving him, or being a player. but by his inability to live out in the open as a gay. this Korea we talking about, it's not just the public's reaction but the parents, family and friends and as far as i know, it's not(!) that easy to live 'out and proud' in Korea.
so looking at this, with that in mind - i saw desperation in his actions, yeah he manipulated the situation even forced Ho Bin to admit that even though he's saying "no", he really isn't over Jung Soo or their relationship. not mature way to deal with the situation, but when the heart is concerned r any of us capable of acting rationally?!? here we go back to ex's (that we Know r bad for us) knowing they playing us, and nothing good with come out of resuming the relationship - just cause our heart can't "stand strong" against them coming back for a second or third chance.
so this was interesting, but left undecided as to what i feel about this film as a whole. thinking positively, i hope that this time around Jung Soo has decided that he will stand tall and fight not only for Ho Bin to take him back - but for them to make it as a couple and live out and proud.
considering in life nothing is definite - Jung Soo could get cold feet and after a while again (cause of pressure from his family) break-up with Ho Bin to be with a woman. and the only way Ho Bin could have a relationship with Jung Soo was if it was a secret. not unheard off.
so this leaves a lot of food for though, let alone avenues to how this could develop. but as it's left to our imagination - i feel let down by how little we get to "chew on" and that's why it only got 3.5 stars.
