TRIVIA AND POPULAR DIALOGUES

Trivia

Official submission of South Korea for the 'Best International Feature Film' category of the 95th Academy Awards in 2023.

Park Chan-wook's inspiration for the film was the Swedish crime novel series "The Story of a Crime" by authors Maj Sjöwall and Per Wahlöö. The series follows the aging police detective Martin Beck and are known for their social critique. Park's pitch was "what if Martin Beck fell in love with a suspect?"

Director Park Chan-wook has said that he used cell phone POV shots to show that the characters are not only looking at the screens of their devices, but to give a sense that they are actually looking at the other person.

Director Park Chan-wook has mentioned that initially he didn't like the idea of using many text messages in the film. He even said that he considered making it a period piece, in order for the characters to write each other beautifully hand written letters instead of text messages on their phones. When he finally decided on a contemporary setting, when possible, he had the characters use a smart watch, voice recordings and translation apps instead of typing.

(Director's Trademark): There are multiple octopuses hanging in the background in the scene in the fish market.

Popular Dialogues

"Seo-rae: The moment you said you loved me, your love is over. The moment your love ends, my love begins."
