Description
[Machine Translation] This is the latest work by Yuya Ishii, the youngest director ever to win the Japan Academy Prize for Best Director for "The Shipwreck". Director Ishii, who has wrestled with modern society and the times, shot the film entirely on location in South Korea. He has completed a new "Asian family film" that no one has ever seen before. The brothers, played by Sousuke Ikematsu and Joe Odagiri, are lighthearted and comical, with a pleasant sense of humor. The characters of the three Korean brothers are full of charm. --Tsuyoshi Aoki (Sousuke Ikematsu), a novelist with an 8-year-old son, Manabu (Ryo Sato), moves to Seoul, where his estranged brother (Joe Odagiri) lives after his wife dies from illness. He can barely speak Korean, but he ends up helping his free-spirited brother import and sell suspicious cosmetics. Seol ( Choi Hee-soo ), a former popular idol, is troubled by her inability to sing the songs she wants to sing, but she continues her performing career to support her brother Jung-woo ( Kim Min-jae ) and her asthmatic sister Pom ( Kim Ye-eun ) in place of her deceased parents. However, they do not know it yet. Aoki, his brother, and his sisters, who failed in business, and Seol, his brother, and his sisters, who were both rejected by the capitalist society... Two families, one Japanese and the other Korean, who have fallen into the bottom of the barrel, witness a "miracle" as they walk their destinies together...
