How did Yeri open a bar named Hometown Bar in Susaek-dong? The village is at the end of a tunnel, and this small bar is always visited by familiar neighbors. In this small and shabby place, Yeri is like an angel and poem herself. People who need to be looked after are always near her. Her comatose father is in his bed. Cats on the street only react to her. Also, three men have faults like broken machines: old-fashioned gangster Ikjune’s life gets twisted because he can’t keep himself from laughing. North Korean defector Jeong-beom is fired because his eyes seem sad. Jong-bin is naive about everything and often has seizures. Yeri dreams of a man with a sound mind in a sound body, so the three do not fit her. However, she decides to embrace “her men” a step off, rather than refusing their persistent efforts to win her heart. She sometimes waves and smiles, but sometimes she scolds them with a serious face. Yang Ikjune, Park Jeong-beom, and Yoon Jong-bin intentionally use their previous images from Breathless (2009), The Journals of Musan (2010), and The Unforgiven (2005), respectively. On the other hand, Han Yeri enjoys the freedom of not belonging anywhere; flexibility crossing over lucky dreams and nightmares as well as stubbornness refusing to stay with mysterious characters. Han widens the borders of the film’s reality and fantasy in unexpected ways. [CHA Hanbi]
