Drama & Film Winners Of The 61st Baeksang Arts Awards The word “mimang” holds multiple meanings in Korean. One, being unable to make sense from ignorance. Two, being unable to forget what one wants to forget. And three, searching far and wide. In debut filmmaker Kim Taeyang’s Seoul-based feature debut, the camera observes in three parts the changes in time, space, and characters that align with the above-mentioned definitions. Shot in Seoul over the course of four years, the film vividly captures changes to the characters and the city — specifically the historical area of Jongno — during a couple’s strolls up and down (memory) lanes.

More a feeling than a story
Soft, slow, and very much a “vibe over plot” kind of film. I could see why people describe it as more of a feeling than a story, because it really lives in silences, glances, and moments that aren’t fully explained. At times I felt like I was just sitting with the characters rather than following a clear narrative. I did appreciate the atmosphere, it’s delicate and almost hypnotic, but I also understand why some people find it distant. I kept wanting to feel more, to be pulled in emotionally, but it stayed just out of reach.It’s one of those films I admire more than I actually connect with. Beautiful, thoughtful, but more “artistic” than truly engaging for me.
