Program Note
A comedy and epilogue about marriage and divorce. On their 2nd anniversary of marriage, Kang A Nam-dae and Jang Young-mi become bored with their routine sex life. They visit a motel to re live their first night ㅁtogether and record it on a video camera. Nam-dae spoils the moment by bringing up their mutual friend Jae-Guk whom Young-mi had dated previously. After reading Jae guk′s book and realizing he truly loved her, she leaves Nam-Dae. Two years later, they meet again and go to see Jae-guk. On the surface, the story seems very simple and plain - an average couple faces the critical moment of their marriage and gets divorced. On the contrary, this film exquisitely attracts the audience from the very beginning. The frivolous sex scene in the opening seems like a play between the youths who are given to pleasure. However, they are husband and wife who have been married for two years. When the husband finds out about his wife′s feelings for her old lover, he jumps at a divorce. They go through this process innocently as if they were young children. A special film filled with unique sensibility and queer vitality.
