A Bizarre Love Triangle

In a near‑future that flickers between the glitter of Seoul’s night‑life and a surreal ceremony on the Moon, a lone guest invites a nervous traveler to hear the tangled history of a family whose roots are as reckless as they are passionate. The story is anchored by three unmistakable personalities: Eun‑hee, a flamboyant woman who dazzles with wealth and blunt charisma; Doo‑chan, her husband whose public life masks private uncertainty; and Keum‑sook, a childhood friend whose quiet strength and fierce loyalty have always lingered just beneath the surface of their shared past. Their connections are immediate, magnetic, and constantly shifting, promising a drama that feels both intimate and wildly expansive.

The film’s tone walks a tightrope between darkly comic absurdity and tender melancholy, letting humor soften the sharp edges of desire and ambition. Seoul in the early 2000s provides a vivid backdrop of bustling comedy clubs, gritty taekwondo studios, and neon‑lit streets where everyday conversations can erupt into moments of raw vulnerability. Through expertly woven flashbacks and present‑day reflections, the narrative suggests that love here is less about conventional romance and more about the complicated choreography of loyalty, envy, and an unspoken yearning for acceptance.

At its core, the movie explores how three individuals, each driven by very different appetites for control, affection, and self‑realization, navigate a relationship that defies easy categorization. Their interactions hint at a world where personal ambition collides with intimate yearning, and where the boundaries between friendship, partnership, and family dissolve into something both fragile and fierce. The atmosphere is charged with a restless energy, inviting the audience to wonder how far these intertwined lives will stretch—perhaps even beyond the confines of Earth—while leaving the ultimate resolution tantalizingly out of reach.
