PASHA IVANOV Sep 06 2015 12:39 am CLEARER THAN YOU think is an anthology animation film from young and talented director HAN JI-WON, who is called “animation prodigy of South Korea”.

There are four stories in total. The plots are focused on simple life or everyday Korean people. The first is about a young man looking for love and doubtful of his future, the second heroine is an office girl dreaming of love, the thirst is focused on broken friendship of the high schoolers over one of them quitting the band, and the third is a fairy tale like journey of a pouch who escapes home and befriends a flightless crow.

The common theme that unites the episodes is the illusiveness of a dream and the stand one has to take against the circumstances to follow it. The ability to find their way under pressure of the society in modern day Korea is highly praised by each storyline and shown as the only way to remain true to one’s self.

CLEARER THAN YOU THINK is not for everyone: some simplistic takes on characters and backgrounds may turn viewers away. There are also some lengthy scenes and confusing montage, but that's just a few negatives and the common feature of many independent films.

While the animation is very simple and a low key, but there’s no doubt about the talent of the animator. HAN JI-WON has a natural ability to tell simple stories in an outstanding way, combining humour, irony and sadness. She has the perfect control of character and the style, and it would be interesting to see what she could do with a much larger budget when the time comes.
