Caught ‘The Roundup 3’. The first one was a blast, but now it feels like a seasonal treat 🍿. The villain played by Lee Jun-hyuk comes off as just a crazed maniac with no depth. Sure, he’s handsome, but the lack of story is annoying. Only recommended if you’re craving Don Lee’s straightforward, no-nonsense punches. 👊
Speaking of which, the advice to always show up when you like someone is so true. Initially thought Don Lee was destined to play villains forever (sorry!), but the more I see him, the more he seems like a masterpiece actor. Just like Psy, some people never get old. His massive biceps might seem cumbersome in daily life, but that’s just my wild imagination. 💪
Also caught Miyazaki Hayao’s new film ‘How Do You Live?’. Kept putting it off, but finally watched it this weekend. Personally, I loved it. 🌟
At first glance, it seems to follow Ghibli’s classic formula. Like ‘Laputa’ or ‘Spirited Away’, it’s the tale of a boy and girl growing through a fantastical adventure. From start to finish, the over two-hour runtime flies by. But unlike other films, I couldn’t just stand up and say ‘Great trip!’ during the end credits. Instead, I sat there, listening to Kenshi Yonezu’s ‘Globe’, lost in thought. Why did it leave me like that? 🎶
Oh, and the voice of the girl Himi is by Aimyon. Not much presence though… 🤫
