🎬 MovieFinder's Take

The film constructs its comedy from the clash between a cynical city detective and the matriarchal island life, using the captivity scenario to explore character dynamics. It relies on gags involving the eccentric grandmothers and the men's absurd escape attempts.

What lingers after the viewing is a light, almost fable-like comedy with a detective twist, where the search for love proves more important than the search for an exit. — MovieFinder Editorial

Director: Lee Sang-hoon
