Asia Cine-Club: Love in the Big City 대도시의 사랑법 (2024, South Korea)
🏳️🌈 Pride Month at TicTic - Celebrating Queer Cinema 🏳️⚧️
🗓 Tuesday, June 30 | ⏰ Doors: 6PM | 🎬 Film: 8PM | 📍 TicTic, Phnom Penh
Directed by E.oni, Love in the Big City follows the evolving friendship between Jae-hee, a fiercely independent woman, and Heung-soo, a young gay man attempting to navigate relationships, identity, and social expectations within contemporary Seoul. Adapted from the bestselling novel by Park Sang-young, the film explores modern urban loneliness, queer identity, chosen family, and the emotional contradictions of adulthood with warmth and humour.
Balancing romance, friendship, comedy, and social commentary, the film presents queer life not as an abstract political issue but as part of the everyday emotional realities of work, dating, housing, nightlife, and companionship in a rapidly changing city. As part of TicTic’s Pride Month celebration of queer cinema, Love in the Big City represents a new generation of Korean queer filmmaking that is emotionally open, socially observant, and deeply human.
“A fresh and emotionally intelligent portrait of contemporary queer life.”
— Screen Daily
“Warm, funny and quietly devastating.”
— The Korea Herald
🎟 Free Entry & Popcorn – Arrive early for sofa, bed, or beanbag seating.
