Gruesomely Sad

I find it tough to really dive in deep with a short film the likes of this one. To those who wish to watch this, the tags are a good indicator of what's to come.

Story:
I would actually really like to see this short film as a mini webseries of 8 or so episodes. It left so many unanswered questions and a "What now?" reaction when it ended. I was close to tears during the final moments because the depiction of bullying and its aftermath shook me. Two sides of my brain are at odds with each other where one applauds the end, and the other finds it too severe. The romance was very subtle, almost a blink and you'll miss it. I am actually unsure whether 'Romance' should even be listed as one of the genres as it is slightly misleading. The female lead was just there as a reminder that there is a part of our male lead that is still human.

Acting/Cast:
Jang Kyung Eob portrayed his character spectacularly, depicting conflicting emotions and reactions wherever necessary, I wanted to keep watching him and my heart broke whenever he got hurt. Chae Soo Bin did fine with whatever little she had to show.

Music: I did not pay any particular attention to the music, the background score however, was spot on with the overall mood.

Rewatch Value: I generally don't rewatch stuff and for this short film specifically I don't see why anyone would want to watch it more than once.

Overall: The supernatural, science fiction-y element of the story had me intrigued and I wish there was more time to explore it. M Boy is worth a check out just for this reason alone.
