Where to Go

About This Movie

Where to Go, from 2018, presents this melancholy yet intimate exploration of heartache and loneliness. Ki-hyeok's journey to a new place, ostensibly for healing, feels almost like a contemporary fable. The atmosphere is thick with isolation, almost palpable in its stillness. The pacing is deliberate, allowing each moment of connection—or lack thereof—to linger, which enhances the emotional weight. The interactions through the app with Sangwoo introduce a layer of digital intimacy that contrasts sharply with Ki-hyeok's physical desolation. There’s a raw vulnerability in the performances that makes them quite relatable. It’s not flashy, but that’s what makes it distinct. It captures the quiet struggles of finding oneself amidst emotional turmoil, and the fear of loss feels sincere.
