One fairytale human comedy 'The perfect way to steal a dog'


What does it mean to know someone?
It means knowing the truth of him and deepening his mind. When we have such understanding, we can become a true friend of him.

The movie 'The Perfect Way to Steal a Dog' is a ten-year-old girl struggle. The reality that the young girl Ji-so has faced yet... Her father left his family, and Ji-so's family had to wander streets. Her mom 'Jung-hyun' leaves his little brother every day to Ji-so and goes to work. Meanwhile, Ji-so's birthday is coming. Ji-so wants to have a birthday party with her friends at home like everyone else on birthday. But her family have no home. It is a house if a small van that is full of junk is a house now.

Ji-so' tells her teacher that she will have a birthday party at home because of pride. She boldly decides to buy a house. Now she has to make money for the house. She worries about how to raise a large sum of money with her friend. Then she come to decide to steal the dog 'Willie'. Willie is owned by an old woman who is wealthy. She is the owner of the restaurant where Ji-so's mother works.


However, there is another person who is looking for Willie, he was her elderly nephew 'Su-young'. He finds out that her estate is inherited to Willie by looking at the will of his old lady. He wants to kidnap Willie and take it away, but at this point, Ji-so takes over Willie quickly. From this time, Ji-so and Su-young compete for Willie.

In this process, Ji-soo learns that Willie is not a simple pet dog for the old lady. She finds out the wounds and pain of the old lady and realizes her mistakes at this time.


This film is a typical human comedy that starts with a comedy but ends with an impression, but it can be regarded as a fairy tale. There are a lot of signs that they tried to make the feeling of fairy tales alive. The story of a 10-year-old girl, Ji-so, does not squeal. The director seems to have understood the nature of this story. He follows the way she see and felt. When Ji-so and the old lady understand each other, they will leave a deep impression in your hearts. I recommend you to see this movie with your children.

Lonely Hunter Hunt the Beast 'Wind River'

A barefoot girl runs out of snow. Her lungs, which have been breathed in cold air at a temperature of minus 20 degrees, are ruptured, and the blood that is raised in her heart blocks the airway and the girl dies. At the time of her death, she was not a person. She was just a prey. Wind River is Indian Reservation in the state of Wyoming. Here, a girl, a descendant of the Indians, was chased after being hunted and died. Animal hunting is for survival. So what is human hunting for? Is it for survival? Such a time has already passed. Moreover, the game was a person. If so, this would be the footsteps of ugly greed. Wildlife hunter Corey finds her and remembers 'the incident' three years ago. It is a terrible trauma to him. He confronts the memories of the past that he dislikes even seeing the death of the Indian daughter Natalie. His daughter also died as a prey in the cold. Corey, a professional hunter, knows what it is like to be a prey. Moreover, his ex-wife is also an

The black comedy of life 'Memoir of a Murderer'

Have you ever felt like someone playing with you? You have lived so hard that you did not make a big mistake, but you have not felt like you were tangled up and doing something that seemed to interfere with your work. It may be that a spiteful life is playing with you. There is a time when life comes to play a mischievous mischief. It digs your weak link. And, at a really important moment, it strikes a second. You can confront somebody who should never meet in a moment of life. Now that I'm trying to make some money, your legs may break. Sometimes you try to talk to a girl of your ideal type, but there may be an urgent signal in your belly. Is it called force majeure in this case? Things are twisted to twist. Life often shows such a perverted appearance. It is often like a bloody disgusting person who turns somebody into a difficult situation and turns back to an unpleasant laugh. Why is it so? Do not ask why. Because no one knows why. In the film 'Memoir of a Mur

Confront unjust dictatorship power 'The Attorney'

This film is part of the history of Korean democracy. As it is well known, Former President Roh Moo-hyun is the person who became the motif of this film's main character, Song Woo-suk. When this film was released, the president of Korea was Park Geun-hye, daughter of the dictator. She disliked this film and was known to have made a disadvantage to the company that invested in this film. However, many people missed the dead Roh Moo-hyun and this movie succeeded in box office. It was no coincidence that people showed explosive reactions to this film. After his death, the daughter of dictator became president and democracy in Korea declined. As people watched this movie, they reminisced about Roh Moo-hyun and realized what they had lost. I think that the driving force of the candlelight revolution that shook Korea last winter came from here. The energy of the candlelight revolution was already growing in people's minds. Now I introduce this movie in Korea where his best fri
