- Who'll love it
- Great for anyone who knows cartoons aren't just for kids. Works for the whole couch, from little ones up.
- The mood
- Feel-good.
- The pace
- Lively and easy to follow, at 1 hr 30 min. Short enough for a weeknight.
- What might put you off
- No age rating on record, so check it first for young kids.
- It's in Korean, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
- Skip it if you can't get past animation (your loss).
Korea's leading modern literature writers Kim Yu-jong, Lee Hyo-seok and Hyun Jin-geon revive literature with pictures. "Spring", about the youthful romance of the 20s, "A Lucky Day", about the terrible sadness of the 40s and "Buckwheat Flower" is about the lingering memories of the 60s.
