Right Now, Wrong Then

By mistake, film director Ham Chun-su arrives in Suwon a day early and has time to kill before his screening with a debate the next day. He stops by a restored, old palace and meets an artist named Yoon Hee-jung who introduces him to her paintings. They spend time together visiting her studio, having sushi and soju for dinner, spending time drinking with Hee-jung's friends and they end up growing close to each other. But when Chun-su is asked if he is married, he has no choice but to reveal that he is, deeply disappointing Hee-jung…

"What's right, what's wrong in relationships, especially when you're married and edging towards extramarital sex? By offering two antithetical films in one, Hong explores the gap between thought and deed, between impulse and action, between self-control and letting it all hang out. He also delivers another brilliant and characteristically wry comedy of manners, laced with soju liquor and regrets." — Tony Rayns, Vancouver FF
