Rather hard to recommend this one. The viewer is left in the dark much of the time, with no clue to the motives of the individuals on the screen. I have to say, it is irritating to be given only the odd scraps to gnaw on.
A young couple part casually--"okay, see you later" etc...with no clue that she is flying from S Korea to Germany for study. That's only the first of many jarring scenes. Why is the boy's father so distressed? We never learn. What is the real reason for the girl's trip? We are given some hints, by and by.
Well, this is a film that requires some observation and inference. Which is not a bad thing at all, but observation and inference are insufficient to fill in all the details, and even some of the major issues. If you're okay with that, this film may well be worth your time. I myself am conflicted. At one hour and change, it is easy to watch again, and one can always fast-forward past all the monotonous smoking scenes.
