Nice Korean unknown movie
TrentReznor30 April 2007
Ba-ram, Seung-hyun, Sun-woo and Sang-jin are a group of young Koreans that spend all their time chasing their dreams. Ba-ram is the leader of a rock band and for her there isn't nothing but her music, Seung-hyun doesn't believe in love and all he want is spend each night with a different girl, Seon-woo only dreams about being a powerful person and the only goal of Sang-jin is to find the true love and take care of her little sister, Sang-hui. Though all of them work in the same building there is no relation between them...or at least that's what they think.

The movie is divided in 6 parts: weekend, which explains the origins of the four main characters, amazon, in which they meet for the first time,eden building, party, under ground and rush. Though it hasn't much to do with the 1999 movie Go, while i was watching Rush, it reminded me a bit of it. The acting is solid, the script although it can be quite predictable, catches you over the 100 minutes that last the film and the soundtrack (important part of the film) is very good. The only bad thing i see, is that sometimes the director cut some scenes too fast and abruptly letting the sensation that we're missing a part of the story.

It looks like this movie isn't very known and i really don't know why, so if you have the chance, at least give it a try.
