It's objectively not that good of a movie, but it felt like the soul in it managed to touch me I guess.
The acting was alright, I think the FL did great though I might be biased and the humor is surprisingly good at times.
The cinematography is alright but I can't remember the music.
Usually with these aspects in mind I wouldn't like a movie so much, but there is just some magic in it I guess.
I recommend watching it when you're feeling lost and to not expect a romantic story.

Families Are Complicated
Honestly it's difficult to describe this movie.I wouldn't say I enjoy watching it, but I definitely enjoyed analyzing it, especially since I knew the ending. Counting the foreshadowings, looking for visual metaphors, etc.
In fact, I enjoyed this more because I knew the ending.
The acting is pretty good. Everyone was very convincing. Kim Young Ae was amazing, I was both terrified of her and pitying of her. I think it's worth watching just for her.
The visuals were suitable for the theme and the music or the lack thereof sets the mood.
The events happening in the movie feels unrealistic to a certain extent, but some aspects of it do feel realistic. The complex relation between parent and child, the awkwardness between family, the fights between them, etc.
At the end of the day it was just an alright movie for me. I can't say I hated watching it, but I won't say that enjoyed it in particular.
