What a gem!

I'm astounded that no one wrote a review for this gem of a short.
Even when it's 13 years old when I write this review, such a powerful short is a thing many other shorts can learn from. It has a story, it has emotions and it has a hopeful message.

There is nothing bad I could say about this little gem. Only that the story is easily understandable when you watch with a keen eye. The acting is so good. Even when this was a very low budget project, they made the most of it. This is a must watch!

I noticed the rings...

This short movie is quite confusing because not much is said, but at the same time, everything is shown and you have to make you own conclusions.
I'm not sure if i have the right interpretration of this movie but here's my take.

Hyeon Jin and Seong Gyu are lovers. Seong Gyu passes away, suddenly found dead in his room.
Jin Woo and Yoon Il attend his funeral with Hyeon Jin and some others friends.
They're all grieving his death. One friend can't help but talk trash about the deceased, pointing out he was in a gay relationship with Hyeon Jin, hence why Hyeon Jin has 2 rings, his own and Seong Gyu's.
Yoon Il gets mad at the nasty comments and attacks him before going back to Hyeon Jin to hug him.

I believe Jin Woo and Yoon Il are both also gay, which makes the funeral hard to assist to in multiple ways that they can't tell anyone to.
I also think that Jin woo has feelings for Yoon Il while Yoon Il has feelings for Hyeon Jin.
In this movie, the rings represent the love they feel but can't verbalize.
When they arrive at the funeral, Jin Woo puts his hand on Yoon Il's shoulder and you can see a ring on his finger. But then that ring disappear and he doesn't have it on later in the movie. To me this proves Jin Woo has unsaid feelings for his friend Yoon Il.
Same for Yoon Il who has no ring during the whole movie, but when he hugs Hyeon Jin, a ring appears on his hand., which shows his unsaid feeling for his friend.

So in the end this movie is about grieving in silence and secret, and unrequited love between friends. It's beautiful, but sad. I liked it.
