About
You may like this if you enjoy loose, character-driven dramas about youth, work, and desire with a lived-in, natural feel, especially if Tattoo or Seashore appeal to you; Not for you if you need a strong, eventful plot.
Pros: authentic slice-of-life feel; warm sense of community; fresh, nonjudgmental approach | Cons: very little plot; repetitive rhythm; may feel slow
