- a rough little review -
Upon watching this short film I didn’t really know what to expect but I was pleasantly surprised! The story line is one you rarely see upon korean dramas in which they highlight the harsh reality of the struggles young adults face when entering the work force. This story emotionally made me feel pity and sadness for the characters and overall sympathise with their situations as it truly is what others are experiencing around the world. For a short film to do this and make me interested the whole way through gets a good mark in my book. The ending made me have mixed feelings as it wasn’t necessarily good or bad, but in reality you cannot expect a completely happy ending - so I commend the writers that they did this.
As for the cast I think they did a wonderful job at portraying their roles and will definitely watch more of their future work!
Overall, this is a short film I’d recommend to those who like realistic plot lines and if your into a very lovey dovey type short film this probably isn’t for you, but there are some sweet scenes in here so watch it anyway! (NGL i teared a little)

if you are appreciating a character full of layer and emotion to overcome their struggle in the workplace world ala Misaeng, but with a darker tone, you might be like this drama alot. Who said a love story can't mix with realism and as your way of telling a good message ala THe dancing the waltz alone?

Once again, not alot of writers is dare enough to throw character reggresion/redemption on viewers .  The character struggle in here is real and the writers write her/his own character with heart,  and far from conventional drama we are used to. They are  trapped in their own anxiety and fear due to the pressure from the world they live in. The plot never defined what path you should take, more about the result decision in your own making.

The metaphore between the waltz dance and relate it to their relationship is just a billiant touch from the writers.
