Exploiting South Korea's industrial landscape and the bright lights of Seoul, this thoughtful drama delves more deeply into the psyche of the single girl than most western 20-something movies. Jeong Jae-eun's directorial debut succeeds in both exploring the ties that bind five former school friends and assessing the status of women in South Korean society. There's an occasional tendency to meander, as introverted artist Ok Ji-young becomes increasingly dependent on her unconventional friend Bae Doo-na, but director Jeong is more interested in personality than story and, consequently, the ambitions and insecurities of this disparate group begin to exert a fascination that is ultimately both touching and intriguing.

Engaging coming-of-age story, set in unattractive suburbs, about five restless young women with little prospects of success trying to cope with everyday life.

Take Care of my Cat
Quite hard to understand the point of the plot: usually I love Chinese films because they are really charming. This one, though I understood the theme to be about young women growing up, I found slow and bleak at times, with a wishy-washy ending. It could have ended at any point, really.

Filmaking a lost art?
I could not watch this film to the end.
After half an hour I had enough. The characters were poorly developed and the editing lacked continuity. Most importantly nothing by the point I switched off had happened and it was pretty clear that by the end still nothing would have happened. Perhaps this filmaker has watched too many Eric Rohmer films (which I hate), there is a remarkable similarity in that at the end of his films you wonder why you wasted 90 minutes of your life. -
