Dir. Kim Joong-hyun. 2011, 111 mins. With Um Tae-goo, Park Se-jin, Kil Hae-yeon. Amidst an economic downturn, Youn-ho finds all of his relationships threatened by the myriad consequences of debt, materialism, and false entrepreneurial starts. Beautifully shot on widescreen Red during wintertime in Seoul, this impressive first feature by Kim paints a chilly and unforgiving portrait of status-obsessed culture that transcends national borders.
