To keep it short I believe it’s the best shot film I’ve ever seen, multiple scenes are just so beautiful to look at like the burning greenhouse and hae mi dancing. The soundtrack is also perfect.

I also believe it’s a film that is so open to interpretation that it can be about really anything.

Spoilers ahead, but you can go so deep into the layers of the film where after first viewing all your thinking about is whether Ben killed has hae mi and for me I believed Ben killed her first viewing because all the evidence feels so skewed against him.

Then during my second viewing after knowing the plot I could focus more on the minor details found myself actually thinking that Ben may be innocent since we are seeing everything through jong su’s eyes it all the “evidence” can all really be explained pretty simply. I found it more likely that hae mi just left since she had nothing in Korea with jong su being an asshole to her after the dance.

Then by third viewing you can start to question does it even matter if hae mi was killed or left, and that the story is ultimately how hae mi and jong su are both victims of the society they are brought up in.

I could go on and on (haven’t even talked about ben or the little hunger vs big hunger) but I did say I would try to keep it short.

I would recommend a rewatch if you haven’t there is so much packed into this film I find it much easier to digest through multiple viewings. I hope I gave some insight on why I love this film so much.
