Woah this is the first time i heard abt mixed race collaboration in korean movie

and it looks like we have some knee-jerk objection already on the movie's Daum page,

against "corrupting" young people's minds. god forbid they should see a darker-skinned

"migrant worker" as a human being with romantic potential! (because you know, foreigners

are all rapists.)

sigh.

i support this director - he's so darn cool taking the path less traveled, looking

at people and lifestyles ignored by mainstream media (e.g. kang ji-hwan's

Host & Guest.)

[Guest riehae]

Wow...

this is something to look forward too..

One of a kind collaboration... a very rare one in korea.
