Number One (2026)

A film that reminds you to go home to your mother.

In my personal opinion, the premise of this film is very simple, but I think that's precisely its strength. The aftermath makes you want to call your mom, if you can't go home that time.

The simplicity of the premise the director wanted to convey was also conveyed very well by Wooshik and Jang Hyejin. You can understand Hamin/Eunsil's point of view, so you won't blame either of them. Wooshik and Jang Hyejin's tandem is really powerful. If I wasn't a K-drama fan, I would definitely believe that they are mother and son, lol.

What I like here is that Seungyeon's character isn't just Hamin's “girlfriend”; she plays a role in the development of the main character. Hamin and Ryeoun were born to be soulmates and their love is pure. Honestly, I'm looking forward to Wooshik and Seungyeon's reunion in Whale Star because, surprisingly, they're so compatible and both incredibly charming on the big screen.

Oh, and another thing I love is the film's dreamy score?? Love it?? I'm sure the director intentionally made it dreamy to remind the audience that there's still a fantasy element in this film.
