One Last Order (2019)

I loved this short film.

From the beautiful poetry. To the fact that Jongin considers both the male and female baristas as potentials for his secret admirer. To the process of elimination.

Everything was adorable. It was a light, fluffy, feel-good short. Worth the 15-17 minute watch! Most definitely.

The actors did a wonderful job. Yoo Kyun Seon was adorable as Jongin the looking customer with a secret admirer who is baffled as to who it could be and wants to find out. The three baristas were adorable. Angelica - the potential female love interest is gorgeous with a mysterious air about her. Shim Min Ki - The potential male love interest is adorable as the shy, introvert who loves always has this dreamy look. And Lee Seul Gi was the possibly the show stealer for me - the bubbly latecomer who is a little bit of a yoda. Love her.

What a great short.

This short (17 min) was really sweet. Soft romantic lighting, late night cafe setting with soft music playing in the background. The storyline was very sweet and the final scene had me giggling along with how cute the main actor was being. Def worth a watch! We need more romantic gay dramas!

There were a few scenes where the blurry out of focus camera shots was a bit distracting, and the wobble/movement in the camera on some scenes seemed unnessessary. It would have been great if there had been some panning shots etc with more high tech equipment but they did a fantastic job with what they had by the looks of it.

Slice-of-life meet-cute at a cafe : not a lot to see

Let me preface this review by stating that it is not a bad short movie...This just flew right over my head. I understand the concept of the main character investigating his romantic options at the cafe. But the result was so evident to me because I felt the main lead anticipated it already that I did not get why it took that turn to finally circle back to the obvious. If the main protagonist had felt more conflicted and surprised, that might have worked better.

The main actor playing the customer at the cafe was very charming and the three barista were okay as well. Nothing outstanding but sufficient given the simplicity of the plot. Production had a limited budget but was effective in featuring a calming place and smooth atmosphere.

I would not necessarily recommend this to people because I don't think you get out of the watch anything special. It is quite soothing in a way but very mundane as well.

The short is mainly about Jongin, who is played by the very likeable Yoo Kyung Seon, and what I appreciate most about the Hanyang University story is that it doesn't differentiate between hetero relationships and same-sex relationships and puts them on the same level. What bothered me a little was the frayed camera in many shots, which at least made no sense to me. Overall, however, above average for the message that the film conveys.


Kraťas je především o Jonginovi, kterého hraje velmi sympatický Yoo Kyung Seon a na příběhu z Hanyang University si cením především toho, že nedělá rozdíly mezi hetero vztahy a vztahy se stejným pohlavím a řadí je na stejnou úroveň. Co mi trošku vadilo byla v mnohých záběrech roztřepaná kamera, což alepoň mě nedávalo žádný smysl. Celkově ale v součtu nadprůměr za to poselství, které snímek přináší.
