Dreary and Uneven
10 April 2021
This film begins with a young man named "Jun-Young" (Woo-seong Kam) meeting an attractive woman by the name of "Yeon-hee" (Uhm Junghwa) on a blind date. Although things begin on an awkward note they eventually end up spending the night together and after that begin to see one another more often. Meanwhile, Jun-Young's younger brother "Kyu-jin" (Park Won-Sang) has just gotten married but not only experienced second thoughts about it beforehand but was also seeing another woman as well. In both cases both Jun-Young and Kyu-jin felt pressure about getting married but unlike his brother-who succumbs to the pressure-Jun-Young continues to resist even though he feels extremely attracted to Yeon-hee. For her part, Yeon-hee has fallen deeply in love with him but his resistance to marrying her increases the pressure she faces to find someone else. Now rather than reveal any more I will just say that this film started off rather well but seemed to take a dark turn a little over the halfway mark and from that point on I began to lose interest in it. Admittedly, I liked the performance of Uhm Junghwa but even so I thought the film was much too uneven to rate any higher than I have.
