[Mild Spoiler] Review of "Possible Love"

No translation in your language yet — showing the English version

‌Here are my personal rankings
of the best Korean films:
1st: Burning
2nd: Waikiki Brothers
3rd: Christmas in August
For those who haven't seen it yet, let me give you a tip:
The movie is a bit long, but if you endure it until the 1 hour 40 minute mark,
a massive wave of suspense hits you starting from the villa sequence about 40 minutes before the end.
The buildup for the finale is a bit long, but from the villa scene onwards, it's like a typhoon hitting.
That doesn't mean the beginning isn't interesting; it's overflowing with incredible metaphors from the start,
but Director Lee Chang-dong's films aren't exactly "user-friendly," and the pacing is quite calm.
This film feels even more so, so it lacks that immediate "stormy" impact that Burning had.
There are many killer lines and scenes throughout, but because they pass by so quietly,
I think many people find it boring.
For example, when they film the factory work, it feels like "working is boring and there's nothing to film,"
and it passes by quickly as if it's nothing, but it's actually a scene where the director's true intentions are fully revealed
LOL
Anyway, make sure you watch it all the way to the end.
According to my standards: Burning >>> Oasis = Poetry = Secret Sunshine = Possible Love = Peppermint Candy > Green Fish
