Description

"A kind of extended romantic riff on the idea that even when separated, two people can be having consonant, resonant experiences. Even a day spent apart can be 'our' day." - Jessica Kiang, Variety

"In Our Day is a gesture toward recognizing the beautiful, awful, and uncanny." - Chuck Bowen, Slant Magazine

"Avid [Hong] followers will enjoy its elusive felicities and love puzzling over its enigmatic gaps." - Jonathan Romney, Screen International

Sangwon, an actress recently returned to South Korea, is temporarily staying with her friend, Jungsoo, and her cat, Us. Elsewhere in the city, the aging poet Uiju lives alone, his cat having recently passed away. On this ordinary day, each of them has a visitor: Sangwon is visited by her cousin, Jisoo, and Uiju by a young actor, Jaewon. Each of them wants to learn about a career in the arts. But they also have bigger questions. As our friends talk and drink the day away, similarities between these encounters multiply and we begin to realize they may be more than just mere coincidence.
