A quintessential story about queer life
Sometimes, life just is. This is a story of a gay man living in a highly conservative society while holding on to some semblance of life. There are no lessons to be learned or catharsis to be had from this story. You just feel the emotions the characters feel at various points in their lives. I found myself silently crying often, yet it was hopeful.
Nam Yoon Su manages to make Ko Yeong an authentic gay man, more than a character. His mannerisms and body language, his relationships, his actions and reactions, all feel real.
