Overview

When I'm with you, my heart vibrates.

Review

The director employs a same-sex relationship to capture the nostalgic moments that we all cherish and wish to remember at a slow and comfortable pace. Props are used to convey additional meanings, such as a glass of water representing emotional fluidity that can change at any moment or shoes symbolizing the things that we take for granted. Even a simple stone could represent the challenges of moody adolescence. As we recall these dreamy and unforgettable moments of youth, we realize our growth and progress in life. (KIM Jonghee)
