    • Trivia
      Art imitates life in this quietly devastating masterpiece from Hong Sangsoo. Kim Minhee (The Handmaiden, Claire's Camera)-in the role that won her the Silver Bear for best actress in Berlin-plays Younghee, an actress reeling in the aftermath of an affair with a married film director. Younghee visits Hamburg then returns to Korea, but as she meets with friends and has her fair share to drink, increasingly startling confessions emerge. - Cinemaguild

      Jun-hee: Are you still searching for love?

      Young-hee: Where's love? It's not even visible. You need to see it in order to search for it.

    Couldn't even make it through...
    After watching this for one hour and 10 minutes, I had to bail, because nothing at all was happening. How this film was highly rated, much less won all the awards that it did is beyond me. This was agonizing to watch, and as it is considered a 2018 release in the USA, this one will definitely be appearing on my Worst 10 List. It's the least I could do.
