Return to Seoul (2022)

Erm... I did doze off a bit in the front just before the first period in Freddie's life ended (cos I think I was tired).  That said, I thought the storytelling was very deliberate. I wasn't sure if I liked it after I left the cinema, but it's definitely a film with substance, IMHO.

Great performance by Park Ji-Min. Direction was subtle and compelling, but this type of film may not be for everyone as it seems to be more focused on the emotional truth of a character than trying to make the character sympathetic.

One of the characters described Freddie as a very sad person.
