Boisterous, mischievous, and seemingly unassailable, Lee Joo-in is the master of her world. Whether dancing with classmates, sparring with her charismatic brother and devoted mother (Parasite’s Jang Hye-jin), or sharing tender moments with her boyfriend, Joo-in’s life appears in harmony. That balance shatters after a public confrontation and a series of unsettling anonymous messages compel her to confront difficult truths long buried. Bong Joon-ho hailed director Yoon Ga-eun as a master at eliciting extraordinary performances from child actors, exemplified in newcomer Seo Su-bin’s achingly tender and multifaceted portrayal of Joo-in. The World of Love further establishes Yoon as one of the most exciting emerging voices in contemporary Korean cinema.
