Good stuff guys. My sentiment toward the film is near the same as Ken, I love the first half of Friend- the nostalgia, the boyhood adventure; but the film hit a spot where I just didn't care anymore and struggled to get to the end. Interested in seeing Champion though.

Another epic cast, Guys. Informative and fun. At almost 2 hours it's quite apt for a Korean film podcast.

I too found the film was not as engrossing as I was expecting it to be despite a good start and some pretty gruesome violence. I will be giving it a repeat viewing in the future though.

Looking forward to the Memories Of Murder cast. It was one of the first Korean films I saw that really got through to me.

Thank you for listening guys and cool to hear there's varied opinions of it. I kind of struggled to convey why I can respect and dislike it at the same time.

Memories Of Murder will be great and there's a perfect HD transfer on it on Blu too so this will be a grainy revisit.

My favourite series on the network is this believe it or not. All credit to Stoo for his enthusiasm of Korean cinema and our awesome guests.
