USA - The half of it that hates Donald Trump as much as you do.
Replying to Spiros May 19, 2026
to be honest this a korean thing, international people need to stay out of this. Not our business.
Oh bullshit.
By your logic, international fans should not watch Korean shows or movies, and forget about Kpop.
After all, it's not our business.

How about Korea's status as #1 worldwide in celebrity suicides as well as suicides among the general population?
How about Korea's status as the #1 country in alcoholism and alcohol abuse?

As soon as Korea accepts my time and attention to their creative content, I become an audience member. As an audience member, it is appropriate for me to notice and comment on any damn thing I want to about Korea's movies, dramas, music, culture, laws, society, whatever.

I'm American. International people certainly don't hold back in criticizing every facet of American culture/society/politics/whatever, and I'm glad they do.

Title Sound of Love Spoiler
Do you mind sharing where you watched this?
Yes, I read up on it online.
"Frustrating and gory" are why I want to watch it. :D
I like movies that challenge me, even if eventually things go too far in either the confusing/frustrating, or gore departments and I drop out.
I dropped out of the successful, popular Korean film, "I Saw the Devil," for that reason. Gore for gore's sake is not my thing.

I have been watching the silly/horny BL, "Unexpectedly Naughty Fukami," which stars the lead of this film. I like what he's doing in that show and was intrigued to check out a film that sounds like the opposite of "Fukami." :)

The 24/7 banging is a huge part of "the series itself," partially because their relationship starts as…
Oh.
I was just trying to be informative. :)

nope, this was the movie Colony with Ji Chang-wook at Cannes ๐Ÿ˜‰
You: "...the film got a 7 minute standing ovation at cannes, which is a good sign..."

gregoreuo1: "*6 to 10 Minutes: This is the festival average for a well-received film."

You: "I...donโ€™t think the applause is that significant."

Me: LOL

If, as I am beginning to suspect, you are on the "Hope" marketing/PR team, you should be fired. :D

This part:

"the audience sat through 2 hours and 40 minutes in complete silence and spontaneously applauded at least three action sequences mid screening before the credits even rolled."

How do you know this? What is the source?

Hilariously terrible. :)

FL is as dull an actress as I've seen.
ML is not far behind.
Sex scenes were nearly raunchy/explicit enough to justify watching everything else.
Not even any real nudity, which is too bad, because the ML naked might have made up for some of the problems I mentioned.
Terrible script.

Why do so many Thai films feature actors taking huge pauses between lines to each other? Just listening to them nearly drove me to slumber.

The bones of this story could be a hot sex thriller in the hands of a better filmmaker, maybe someone out of KO/JP/TW/HK.

4/10

Do you mind sharing where you watched this?
Thank you, but I tried watching a flick raw once, and found it more frustrating than anything, as if I were only getting half the story, if that.

I do appreciate it, though.

So, tons of online complaints about cheezy CGI are 100% unfounded?

Well reported. :)
I didn't know applause times at Cannes were so meaningless unless they go over ten minutes. lol

The mother is not as evil as we like to believe she is.I believe in redemption.
Those are some of the shades of gray I was talking about.
