Korean, funny, cute
22 July 2015
It's kinda a Korean variation on Cast Away, this time the guy get stuck on an island after a suicide attempts. Ironically this island is the middle of a river not far away from a city. Kim, the protagonist, represents all what society deems to be a loser: an indebted, underachieving, dumped-by-his-wife shell of a man. But stranded on this island, he reinvents himself with one (stupid) goal: cook some noodles, starting from scratch. It gives him the purpose he had lost in his mainstream life. And his renewed existence intersects with the one of another weirdo and evolves into something real cute.

Funny and touching at the same time, it's Korean, it's good.
