  “The song let it go is popular now. I hate it. It’s all about being yourself.  Self assured people are so boring.”

  Burning 2018

  ★★★★★ Rewatched 16 Feb 2020 3

  There’s a lot of perfect moments in this but one that I want to point out is when Ben asks Jong-su who his favorite writer is, and he shrugs, then very begrudgingly answers with William Faulkner. And that when he reads Faulkner, he feels like he’s reading about himself. Its the awkwardness of feeling like you’re exposing yourself nakedly when you casually talk about art that moves you for personal reasons.
