MOVIE REVIEW:
Barking Dogs Never Bite (Korea 2000)

Alriiight, as you can see this is a Korean black comedy which I found strangely entertaining.

The protagonist is a soon-to-be father, Yoon-ju(Lee Seong-jae), who wishes to become a professor, but is struggling with life. He has almost no income, an overdominating pregnat wife and feels as though his life isn't really going anywhere he wants it to.
Yoon-ju lives in a large apartment block where many of his neighbors have dogs, although they aren’t allowed too as it goes against the 'No Dog' policy.
Eventually a dog’s constant loud yelping gets to his head so he goes outside to track it down and 'deal with it'. After a few failed attempts he locks it in a cupboard in the boiler room and from there, everything escalates.

The other main character in the film is Hyun-nam (Bae Du Na), who is desperate to become famous and escape the reality of her current life. She is a clerk who has trouble staying at her desk and would rather be outside.
Hyun-nam and a friend get involved in all the rukus when she sees a man throwing a dog off the top of a building.

There are many unusal characters that make this plot just that so much more odd. The writer did a good job on the plot as it remains rather unpredictable and the audience is always questioning what is going to happen. It also incorporates the different characters well.

This movie is weird, and does not try to be a “laugh out loud” kind of humor, but there are just those scenes that you just can’t help yourself. This ain't no american slapstick.

- However, one thing that I hated about the movie was the Jazz soundtrack which wasn’t very fitting, and at times I was forced to mute the TV. It hurted my ears >:(

But other than that it, was an interesting movie and was very weird.
I enjoyed it and its worth a watch ;]

Note: There are some cute doggy abuse scenes, but is says that no animals were harmed - apparently >_>"
