![No Other Choice]()
1. No Other Choice
Korean Movie - 2025
I watched No Other Choice at the cinema together with my parents. I was interested in this movie because it has a pretty good rating on Letterboxd. My father has watched Squid Game so he recognized Lee Byunghun, and my mother has watched Crash Landing on You so she recognized Son Yejin. The dark comedy was definitely to their taste; they left the theatre saying that they enjoyed the movie :)
I found the movie to be entertaining as well. Like my mother said, there was always something happening so I was never bored. It's not really my type of comedy, but it was a bit funny at times. The ending was a bit unconventional, but it suits the movie.
I find movie theatres to be very overstimulating and am usually not a big fan, but I felt like pushing myself a bit this time, and I ended up having a good time (even though the volume of the ads almost made me cry before the movie even started...).

![Your Eyes Tell]()
2. Your Eyes Tell
Japanese Movie - 2020
It took me almost 5 and a half years for me to watch this movie. It was on my radar before it was released, but by the time it aired, I was busy with life and no longer followed BTS's activities (they made one of the OST for this movie) + I had already seen the Korean movie, so I knew the story. But now I've finally watched it.
It was exactly as I expected it to be like. It was a good watch and I even cried a little. Since it's been so long, I don't remember the details of the Korean original movie, so I can't make a fair comparison. But the story felt familiar as I watched it, so I did remember some things. It was definitely a movie worth my time and I'm glad I was able to complete it :)
Diary entry: the main reason why I decided to watch this movie today is because I wanted to see if I could get some inspiration from it for my weekend writing course I'm starting tomorrow. This is the highest rated Japanese movie on MDL with a happy ending that I hadn't yet watched, so I thought it would be a good reference. In the course description, it says that we will find the reason why we want to write. I guess I will find out over this weekend if the movie was of help or not. I hope that it will at least be fun.
