That Woman, That Man

Kim's follow-up to Marriage Story redefines everything that can go wrong in 1990s relationships. Eun (Kang) and Chang (Lee) are neighbours in Peace Apartments; both are on the rebound from failed affairs. She's a maternity nurse who hates babies; he's a TV journalist who compiles obit material for the not-yet-dead. They hate each other on sight, and the stormy non-romance which develops between them is as much scary as funny, not least because it's so frank about the sex. Kim has the wit to frame this front-line bulletin from the sex war as an oblique homage to the late Audrey Hepburn.
