A Rose and A Tulip (2019)

Junho in a double role

This is a small and lighthearted indie (?) film. It's an easy and nice watch. I've always preferred this type of smaller films to big productions.

Junho is great in the double role as the world weary disillusioned artist Nero and the boyish naive student. There's criticism, even satire, of the artworld. The characters all face major challenges which makes this work well as a drama but luckily the way the stories are told is not too depressing and the ending is optimistic. The female characters are left rather shallow but since this is not primarily about romance, that's fitting.

Got away with the crime and, begins again with his career like nothing ever happen.

I can't with this movie here is a quick summary Nero Park stole her family's art, got rich, then rumors started that he plagiarized the art. He buys all the art burns it and, then tries to cut his timeline short by walking into the ocean. The main characters starts to look for him. He chickens out and, does not do it. The main female character forgives him and, he gives back the main painting that was seen in the beginning of the movie when she starts to work at her family's inn. He gets a second chance at his career and, starts all over again with his life like nothing happen. I said to myself Wow he got away with that.
