the story kinda ironic, heart wrenching and required lots of attention to understand the plot, still it's worth watching.

A l'attention de Monsieur Jeong Seong Il,
Somptueuse bande annonce. Pellicule long-métrage en Noir et Blanc, digne d'un Chef- d'Oeuvre.
La grandeur de votre Oeuvre cinématographique est la douceur poétique incarnée par de Grands
acteurs dans un quotidien capital et difficile. Un vrai Café ... Merci
