Sweet and Sour

unravel the plot

This takes some thinking and also you have to watch the screen after the credits to make it make sense. Bottomline: Nurse meets a chubby guy and they start to date, but it is a long distance relationship. Hence the reference for the sneakers as a gift and running - which in turn the boyfriend looses weight. So now the boyfriend is in shape and attracts a co-worker around the same time that the main couple start to have relationship issues. This seems to be around the time that the nurse also finds out she is pregnant and coincidentally meets another chubby guy with a name similar to her boyfriends. So the nurse is using the new guy to cope with her issues ( maybe help to move on)while her slim boyfriend is seeing his co-worker. To tell the truth, these events over lap and I can't pinpoint the exact time line for all of this. It just ends with them both going their separate ways. To late the slim boyfriend realizes that he lost a good relationship as the nurse is seeing a new chubby guy who happens to look just he did when they first met. I enjoyed the movie. the confusion only came when the scenes when back it time 7 months and again to 1 year 7 months. Had to pause the movie to see the names to realize how close they were and to better understand, but I don't think it was a s bad as some are saying. I enjoyed watching this.

Uninteresting on the main part but a strong ending

To be honest, I might make the difference here and say I really liked the ending. It was an unexpected plot twist that I definitely didn't see coming and it really caught me off guard. To that, I'll give them props. I also really liked seeing Jang Kiyong at a more "controversial" character that differs from the usual perfect style he has. He really delivered his role well.

Other than that, I feel like the main part of the movie has nothing much to offer. It is quite boring and repetitive with nothing much going on. I expected him to cheat on his girlfriend with his coworker. I also felt bad about the whole miscarriage case, that I feel that was treated too lightly.

Would love to know more about the second guy the FL dated... At first I thought she was genuine with him but the movie left me with the feeling that she only dated him cause he represented a "perfect" image of her ex.
