Overview

Film director, Joongrae, is preparing for his next movie but is unable to finish his script. So he pleads his friend, Changwook a production designer, to go with him on a trip even though Changwook had already made plans with his girlfriend, Moonsook, a composer. Eventually Changwook brings his girlfriend along and they all go on a trip to the west coast to visit Shinduri Beach Resort, which is covered with cherry blossoms and a flowing mist. There, Joongrae makes advances on Changwook's girlfriend, Moonsook. Already a fan of his films, Moonsook doesn't hide her interest. So later, while avoiding Changwook's eyes, the two spend a heated night together. But the next day Joongrae's face is filled with anxiety as he proposes to go back to Seoul. He and Moonsook then part awkwardly.

How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

A languid, emotionally charged study of desire and deception where a director's creative block becomes entangled with romantic transgression. The film lingers on the suffocating tension of hidden attraction and its aftermath with an air of dread and regret.
