I’M A CYBORG, the latest film from the Korean director Park Chan-wook, is a madcap fantasy, screwball romance.Young-goon is admitted to a mental institution, believing herself a cyborg, she charges herself with a transistor radio.Il-soon, a fellow inmate, steals the other inmates’ personality traits and believes he is fading and will one day turn intoa dot. When Young-goon refuses to eat, Il-soon decides it’s his job to get her on her feet again.
This charming, tender and visually arresting film cements Park Chan-wook’s reputation as one of the most gifted and playfulfilmmakers working today. An offbeat romantic comedy, I’M A CYBORG is a touching and highly inventive film from one of Korea’sbest known director’s Park Chan-wook.
