Dad Is Pretty

About This Movie

Dad Is Pretty is a fascinating blend of comedy and drama that explores the life of Duk-jae, a guy who's just kind of fading into the background at his job. The film has this raw, almost gritty atmosphere, especially when Duk-jae is drowning his sorrows in drink after work. The pacing feels natural, giving you time to absorb his struggles. The themes are really poignant—identity and acceptance run deep, particularly with the club setting where cross-dressing is embraced. The performances are solid; you can feel the internal conflict of Duk-jae, brilliantly captured. Soo-Min Park's direction adds a unique flavor, making you reflect on the sometimes absurd nature of familial and societal expectations while keeping it light enough to chuckle.
