Time (South Korea, 2006)

Seh-hee and Ji-woo have dated for two years; jealousy consumes her and she can't stand when other women even talks to him. She worries he will tire of her looks. Then, she disappears. Telling no one, she goes to a plastic surgeon for a new face.

An interesting drama from acclaimed director Kim Ki-duk (3-Iron, The Isle, Bad Guy), who tries to portray the issues in a modern relationship and take jealousy to a whole new level. In these days of twisted beauty ideals and where everyone wants to look perfect, Time is right on time (no pun intended). Great composition, cinematography and acting, as expected from the aforementioned director.  

Genre: Drama/Romance
