A Quiet Dream Trailer (2016)
Trailer for A Quiet Dream, also known as Chun-mong in international markets. Ye-ri (Han Ye-ri) is a young woman who was born in China, but traveled to South Korea to meet her Korean father, who is ill. To support him she works in a bar, which is frequented by three sketchy and besotted characters: Ik-june (Yang Ik-june), a boastful hoodlum who has been unceremoniously thrown out of his gang; Jong-bin (Yoon Jong-bin), Ye-ri's clueless landlord; and Jeong-beom (Park Jung-bum), a North Korean defector who has just been fired from his job for having "sad eyes". All three men have eyes for Ye-ri, but also enjoy each other's company, and among their jostling quips and pleas for her attention, a surreal and comforting camaraderie grows between these overlooked members of Seoul's underclass. Zhang's latest film is a funny and suitably dreamy ride, in glorious black and white.
