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
- Best for anyone who remembers how big everything felt at sixteen and people who like stories about real, flawed people. It gets the awkwardness and the high stakes of being young.
- The mood
- Thoughtful and character-driven.
- The pace
- Lets scenes breathe, at 1 hr 39 min.
- What might put you off
- It's in Korean, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
- Not the one if you want explosions or easy laughs.
Hwa-young is an 18-year-old student living alone. Her friends call her "mom" and use her house as their place to hang out, but don't really include her in their clique. Hwa-young pays particular attention to one of the friends, Mi-jeong.
