      Audience Member I was skeptical. The Korea/Thai craze here is so widespread that sometimes I am not sure what people are in for. It was however delightful surprise. I love movies like this about a love that I can only imagine you can only find on a movie set, as, well, speaking for my own life, I've never encountered such events. It makes you hopeful. It makes you want to look for someone as perfect as the couple found each other in the film. Although there is a trickling line of fate which in fact lines them up. Beautiful. Very funny also! It managed quite a lot of roaring laughs and was all in all a great picture to watch! thank you! Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/15/23 Full Review Audience Member Brilliant. The scenes of extended miscommunication between the Vietnamese migrant worker and North Korean "defector" as they wander urban and rural South Korea are sheer brilliance.
