Butterflies, Butterflies, Butterflies!!!!

I must say female directors are really killing it, there's a notable difference in nuances comapred to male directors. It's the same case in this, the small details in the slow burn romance that director Park Hyeon Jin show fantasticly.

Isn't there atleast one secret desire waitng within your heart? Something that you can't admit to yourself.

Love and Leashes was not what I expected, especially with the 18+ rating on Netflix but it was probably for the better. It showed a more realistic approach and focused on the slow burn romance of our leads.

Here's what I found good about Love and Leashes

Story
it bravely took an unconventional and unique topic into life especially in Korea, so that's something to applaud. Besides that we get office situations, friendship, and slow burn romance. One problem I do have was the Hanna and Jihoo storyline, it was unnecessary.

Social Issues
The things shown here might be over the top and in your face but nonetheless it was still shown well. Right from the start we see how men and women are treated differently inside a workplace and goes on throughout the film. Many more realting to this as you decide to watch.

Comedy
10mins in and I am laughing out loud. The comedy here is my style, very light and fun.

Technical
Music was slow and romantic, perfectly fits the theme of the film. Cinematography for a romantic comedy was also good.

Pacing
A lot might dislike the slow burn romance and think this has bad pacing. However I sooo love it, the build up, the character developing, the realization of love.

Acting
SEOHYUNNNNNNN the woman that you areee?? She was outstanding here, it was a 360 turn to the image she has created. Proves how great of an actress she is.
This is my first time seeing Jun yeong and thought he did as well as Seohyun. Portraying someone that is considered uncanny is difficult and props to him.

Favorite part
During the scene where they were alone in the office. As I said Seohyun is amazing, her expressions and eyes changed in a blink of an eye. Furthermore it unlocks different varieties of emotions throughout and jad me at a lost of breath.

Ending
PERFECTTT!!! Just watch it right now.

Overall
To anyone just wanting to watch a romcom but wants it a little racy, this is the movie for you. Honestly even if it was a slow burn, I think none fans of this can overlook it because the build up was as entertaining in my perspective.
