This is such a great movie. The plot is very interesting : I love the fact that the 4 main characters all have demons from their past that they face in this movie. The acting is phenomenal and the characters have fantastic chemistry (props to Kim Jae-Wook for taking on the role of a gay man when he is straight, he did a super good job and portrayed his character wonderfully). I feel like despite the stereotypes regarding queer people in this film, Antique Bakery is still a progressive film for Korea as it is important to talk about topics such as sexuality so that such topics become less taboo especially in more conservative countries. As a queer person I think this approach is needed to work toward acceptance of the LGBTQ+ community in Korea and all around the world.

I don’t have much to say about the music. I liked it but I wouldn’t necessarily look it up and listen to it again. My favorite track was during the “ Cake Paradise” scene but I’m having trouble finding what it’s called. It is sung by the South Korean singers Kim C and ALi.

I would definitely watch this movie again. The interesting plot will most likely keep me coming back. If you’re hesitating to watch Antique Bakery then let me just say this : watch it !!!! You won’t regret it.
