Hearty Paws 마음이
Thursdays, January 10 & 24 | 6:30 - 8:30 pm
|
Eleven-year-old Chan-i (Yoo Seung-ho) and his younger sister So-i (Kim Hyang-gi)
are a family. Abandoned by their single mother, they struggle to get
by but also find ways to enjoy the simple joy in life. Their "adopted"
puppy - named Ma-eum, or Heart - brings a new sense of love and
happiness to their small family, as well as a deep loyalty that will
outlast even the greatest possible tragedy.
Directed by Park Eun-hyung and Oh Dal-kyun, Hearty Paws (2006), also known by the title Heart Is...,
struck a chord with Korean audiences for its combination of cuteness
and tugging heartstrings, leading to future successes for its two young
lead actors.
In Korean with English subtitles; 97 minutes. Doors open at 6 pm for a pre-show reception with Korean snacks! The film will begin promptly at 6:30 pm.
