This is a quiet, sweet, ambling movie that has many things to say and doesn't mind taking its time to say them. It is one of those Korean experience movies that takes you on a journey rather than laying out a story with a concrete beginning middle and end. I'm sure many would quantify this a "boring" but if you are in the right frame of mind, it is a real treat. What sets it apart from others that make movies like this (Sang-soo Hong and Jung-bum Park spring to mind) is that this was directed by two cinematographers and every shot is framed, blocked and shot beautifully. I mean BEAUTIFULLY! It is a visual feast with interesting and positive things to say. Very happy I took the time to watch this one.
