Why it’s a Monday Morning Maybe

With a box office flop and almost no lasting buzz, this one could be a tough watch. Keep your phone handy.

Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.

Is it for you?

Who'll love it
Made for anyone who remembers how big everything felt at sixteen and people who like their stories with a little heart-flutter. Small moments carry real weight here, the way they do when you're young. If you loved 20th Century Girl or Quadrophenia, start here.
The mood
Warm and romantic.
The pace
Gives its people room to develop, at 1 hr 51 min.
What might put you off
  • It's in Korean, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
  • Skip it if romance makes you roll your eyes.

Ji-hyeon works as a temp at a university, writing and making films. One day he finds he has confusing feelings towards Geon-woo, a younger schoolmate. The two men fall in love with each other, bringing controversy among colleagues.
