New Netflix rom-com
Sweet & Sour, directed by Lee Gye-byeok, begins with a cliched but popular question: Does love have an expiration date?
“When dating someone there are not just sweet and sour moments. There are also bitter moments. I wanted to show that realistic side in the movie,” the director said during an online press conference Tuesday (June 1).
Jang-hyuk (played by Jang Ki-yong) and Da-eun (played by Chae Su-bin) are a couple who embark on a long-distance relationship when Jang-hyuk’s company posts him to an office outside of Seoul. This takes a toll on their relationship: Jang-hyuk and Da-eun always end up quarreling when they meet in Seoul.
