Young-tae and Mi-joo are happy to move into a small but cozy monthly rental house. However, Young-tae’s business partner suddenly breaks the agreement to run a restaurant together. Young-Tae leaves home to earn money, leaving Mi-joo alone. Mi-joo lives diligently while waiting for Young-tae. This is the new work by director Park Songyeol, who gained attention as an outstanding newcomer at the Busan International Film Festival and the Berlin Film Festival with Hot in Day, Cold at Night (2021). It is fascinating to see how such a simple story can convey such complex emotions. It is lonely and scary, painful and sad, eerie and creepy, and funny and tear-jerking. The dreams and realities are more recklessly chaotic than in previous works, and the shining determination for life has become impressively strong. The unexpected and absurd final scene is also a highlight. It is a blessing to see such an unusual film as this. (JUNG Hanseok)
