    Mother (2009) – A Masterpiece by Bong Joon-ho

    At this point, I should be used to the fact that no one becomes famous in Korea without some serious skills. After watching The Man from Nowhere and then this film, I realized Won Bin is far more than just a handsome face (he’s even ranked as Korea’s most attractive man, surpassing So Ji Sub).…

    Kotoko (2011) – A Film That Transcends Reality

    I watched this film a while ago (well, not that long ago—about a month), but I felt I wasn’t ready to approach it objectively just yet.

    Introduction I originally watched this movie because I was looking for a comedy, and it also happened to be the first on the updated list of the site where I usually watch dramas.
