I watched this on a flight to Asia. Though I was born in Japan and live in the US, I find some similarities in Japanese and Korean culture. I think Korean films do a very good job of incorporating appropriate humor and funny scenes while tackling some serious subjects. Salut d'Amour is a good example. Without giving too much away, what starts out as a comedy with some quirky characters turns into a very touching and moving film with a surprise ending. As a grown adult caring for an aging parent with dementia this film touched my heart deeply. I hope it gets distributed on DVD or thru the internet so it gets the viewership it deserves.
