Milena Belen

Was told to watch this mainly because it was weird and funny to watch. Honestly I cringed a lot in this movie especially at the barking. I think the attempt of portraying bdsm as something wholesome was okay however i do think this movie has only brought more questions and has made me more hesitant in exploring more about bdsm. The acting overall was good although some scenes i cringed terribly at, but i think the ending was to abrupt and cliche and i personally dont think we managed to get much of a perspective in ji-hoo's growth through his acceptance/realisation in his feelings for ji-woo. ill give this a 2/5 as the movie does offer a sense of comedy and tension between the two characters discovering their bdsm preferences however it lacks a more subtle and clearer approach for those that maybe dont understand bdsm at all, then leading it to being sudden and confusing for the viewer. I also think this movie lacks a more in depth perspective of the character's feelings outside of their bdsm practices as we only managed to understand ji-hoo's feelings for ji-woo towards the end. Of course im sure the director and actors put their all into this movie and it is very much appreciated but of course there were a few flaws in this movie overall and therefore it was a 2/5 star rating from me.
