This film shows how it would be like to have a do over when it comes to our romantic interest. You know those times when you met someone you have that moment with and ask yourself what it would have been like if you did things differently. Because you missed out on the chance, because you couldn't be more honest with yourself or be more bold with the situation. That is what this film is, it's basically the fantasy of Hong Sang-soo in my opinion. It's like he wrote this whole script for the actress in his film played by Kim Min-hee. The plot is about a introverted and married director falling for a female artist and thus somewhat realistic but mundane conversations ensues. You know the conversations that ensues between introverts at a bar. Actually you can walk into just about any restaurant in Korea with alcohol at night and you can hear similar conversations as this one. The director Hong Sang-soo actually had an affair with the actress in this film. Like the actual plot itself, he is a married man as well. Despite the director showcasing this as an artistic indie film I just couldn't see much artistic merits with this one. It was like watching introverted people having mundane conversations with one another. I am a introvert but even I couldn't find anything interesting about the conversation between the two. Like I said watching this was like watching a fantasy movie for the director Hong Sang-soo.
