In the big city, lives can overlap and entertwine without the individuals realizing the bigger picture. The hightened level communication enabled by the internet and cell phones increases the strange tangling of individual stories. “Sund@y Seoul” traces the everyday dramas of a wide variety of people, from a bored housewife who inherits a friend’s chatroom login to a teenager who falls for a callgirl he finds online. Many questions are left unanswered and the fates of some of the characters are unclear — but that’s life.
An insightful and often unsettling film, “Sund@y Seoul” is a portrait of urban life in a big city. These stories could have happened in any city, and people just like this could live next door.
