If you loved Swing Kids, try Sunny

A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.

What they share

Both films are directed by Kang Hyoung-chul, and they both carry the bittersweet, foreign gem, tender mood tags, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Swing Kids, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Sunny is

A time-traveling cassette tape somehow syncs up with late-stage capitalism and terminal illness. A woman on her deathbed reunites her high school gang after a quarter century of silence. The math of nostalgia doesn’t add up, but the squeaky K-pop numbers somehow do.
