Hyeong

For once, a K-movie that isn't centered around romance, yet still, is fun and at times, heart-wrenching. Hyeong follows the development of a relationship between two brothers who had been estranged for some years - not to mention, one is disabled. The progression of their relationship had me angry at first, but at the end my heart was full, while I was nearly in tears. Definitely a good one, and worth the watch!

Wow! I started watching without any idea what this was about. Because Jung Suk was acting I expected a comedy. But no ... I was crying towards the end.

Both actors did well in bringing out their love hate half-sibling relationship when the older brother is out on parole to look after his Olympian dongsaeng who became blind after an injury to his head during a judo competition. One cares only of his temporary freedom while the other is utterly depressed and refuses to leave the house.

Therein begins a story of how these 2 brothers form a hate love co dependent relationship and slowly learn to live with each other. The older brother stars taking better care of the disabled one and slowly they form a less uncomfortable alliance.

The chemistry between two brothers is so good and anyone watching this will remember their siblings as it is almost identical to anyone's siblings activities. The relationship, bonding,bromance,comedy scenes of the movie really fun to watch. This is combination of comedy and sad movie. Though is refered as comedy movie, it isn't really! It really hard to keep tears within oneself while watching tragedic ending. It almost guess right about ending, extremely sad. However,I thought, I am going to see the coach with any of the two brothers but it really didn't happend.

This movie was beautiful and I'm happy I was able to see it. But fyi your going to need tissues your nose will be stuffed up and you will be crying alot. So heads up yeah? I love you Korea I'm coming to you. Xox.

This centers on the two main characters, one a flawed no-goodnik who uses his athlete half-brother's sudden blindness to scam his way into compassionate parole from prison. He returns home to find his judo champion sibling curled up, malnourished, apathetic and smelly.

And he complains, a full-fledged turd muttering and hissing his disgust. But old habits die hard and he sets out to scam again.

How the two estranged brothers reconnect and heal is the point here and both actors portray their characters beautifully. The mutual muttered profanity and insults, the goading and impatience seems to snap the younger blind judo wrestler out of his funk and is hilarious. His older brother comes to terms with his past choices to leave the family and makes a remarkable decision to help his brother return to competitive sport.

I cried a lot in the last half hour. It was a wonderful, simple story played with finesse by both actors. Highly recommend.
