“It's a slow-burning, deeply real story about two childhood friends reconnecting after years apart.”

“Celine song directed this wonderful and emotionally complex film about holding on to the past no matter how fleeting it is. Ha Young is a young girl living in Korea. She has a crush on a boy at school named Hae Sung. The time comes when her family is immigrating to Canada.”

“An american A24 very adult romance and drama movie that gets in you little by little, slow burning with a gentle flame and involves more than just love, but personal choices and fate too.”

“"Na Young" (Moon Seung-ah) and her best pal "Hae Sung" (Leem Seung-min) are pretty much joined at the hip at school. They do everything together. That is, until her family decide that they are going to emigrate to Canada.”

“Wow. For a director, Celine Song, just coming out of the gate, this is quite an impressive film. The lead actress, Greta Lee, fit the role like a soft leather glove, which speaks volumes, both for her talent, and for Song's casting.”

“As the son of parents who were childhood sweethearts/soul mates, I tend to be a sucker for movie romances that address this subject. In this case, however, the only “sucker” aspect applies to the money I plunked down to watch this two-hour snoozefest.”
