Believe Me, Oppa

About This Movie

So, 'Believe Me, Oppa' is an interesting take on the complexities of familial relationships wrapped in a romance. It centers around Min-woo and his younger brother’s friend, Hae-ri, who ends up living with them due to family tensions. The dynamic is really heightened by the presence of Su-mi, the younger sister with a crush on her brother, which adds this layer of awkwardness and tension. The pacing feels deliberate, allowing the more emotional scenes to linger a bit, almost uncomfortable at times. The performances are pretty raw, which gives it an authentic edge. The atmosphere is mixed—there's a lightness from the romantic elements but a heaviness from the underlying family strife. It's a unique spin on the classic love triangle, with a focus on the impact of close quarters and complicated feelings. Definitely worth a look for those who appreciate character-driven narratives.
