nicofeelbetter The subject of this film is the condition of a woman who is married in the South Korea. The movie takes place now and shows the relationships between men, women, and the family. The strength of the movie is the fact that we pass to a case of characters to a drama. Excellent movie. The movie is perfectly directed by a new Korean filmmaker, I'm Sang-Soo. There is in the movie a special taste of humor, typically from the director (but if you know another Korean filmmakers like PARK Chan-Wook and KIM Ki-Duk, you won't be really surprise, but a little...). The actors, the woman and her husband in the movie play very good. This is the reason why we trust to this story which can exist anywhere at this moment. I recommend hotly this movie.

rosana1744 I agree to say that this movie is made like a comedy but for those who wants to take a better look they will this that their is much more behind this, it's the social role of wife and husband that are criticized : we can see that the husband propose to his wife to back together because he feels that he have to, he married her he have ti take responsibility, she refuses and he is so happy that she does. It really shows all the problems of the confrontation of two social models. I find really beautiful when the wife cries because of the sexual pleasure she has, because it shows all the fears she probably had, was she still a woman ? She was existing again, could be happy again after all the sadness she had felt, her marriage was constructed on her child now what was left of it ? I don't agree with the person that said the lawyer couldn't satisfy his mistress because i don't think so i think that if she masturbate herself it's more too show another sort of women, modern, she has different boyfriends, she decide of what she wants, she has as much of control as the guy, maybe more. It's a liberated woman (i don't know if it's English)

[email protected] This is less of a movie than a very extended soap opera. An apparently conscientious young Korean attorney has an affair while his sexually frustrated wife goes looking elsewhere for fulfillment. Apparently he's lousy in bed since both of his women seem to spend an inordinate amount of time in post-coital masturbation. Meanwhile his mother finds love elsewhere as his father lies dieing while his young and tasty assistant yearns for the day when she can make his triangle a square. Altogether it provides a fascinating insight into Korean society, that being - they're just like Americans - or maybe, more specifically, just like Manhattanites - those in Sex and the City, for example. If this movie has anything deeper to say than "get it while you can" it keeps it well hidden. The tragedy which brings the attorney's marriage - and the movie - to its inevitable conclusion seems to have nothing to do with the plot other than to provide it with a convenient resolution. Still its refreshing to see sexual relationships, marital and otherwise, portrayed in such a frank and nonjudgmental manner. Pity that the film continued about 45 minutes beyond the point that I stopped caring.

Ozlem Alkan This South Korean film dealing with the traumas of a fading marriage is deftly written, acted and shot. It deals with universal issues related to certain life stages with courage and sincerity, the characters are superbly drawn, the plot subtly moves and leaves the viewer with deep feelings and thoughts only such well-crafted and memorable films can.
