Comments: Lucky to land someone the caliber of Jung Yu-mi (not to mention Lee Sun-kyun, RIP) for a directorial debut. Seems pretty common in SK. Once the industry decides you're ready they load you up. But it's also too common that this might be the only film this guy releases

I liked it a lot. A slow sizzler until it bursts at the seems a little in the final act. Jung carries the show with her pressure cooker Korean girl swing first and ask questions later, or better yet make a Powerpoint presentation LOL

Lee anchors the show with a nicely understated performance

I was only mildly aware of sleepwalking as a thing. Director Jason Yu spells it out frighteningly. I hope he gets to make more films


Summary: A young, expectant wife must figure out how to stop her husband's nightmarish sleepwalking habits before he harms himself or his family.
