On the rebound from their failed romance, Sangwoon and Youngshil meet by chance and give it another go. The story climaxes with their abortive attempt at a double-suicide. Whereupon Tongsu (Kim Sangkyung) leaves the cinema and notices that the actress who played Youngshil was also in the audience. He picks her up, but their developing relationship uncannily echoes the movie she starred in…A narrative hall of mirrors, Hong’s film takes male vanity and immaturity to pieces.

Despite the unusual nature of its form, Tale of Cinema is a typical work of its creator, as it is based on the same motifs of his previous films, but it offers an original variation on their deployment and a new structure and function of the overall work. The film again deals with the relationship between one woman and two men, but this time it presents a much more complex relationship between the characters forming the central triangle. The film also works with division into two symmetrical halves, but unlike Hong’s previous works, the two halves are more loosely connected in terms of form and dramaturgy (this does not involve repeating or varying the same scenes). However, it thus much more compactly connects the characters and the variation of the motifs is conditioned by the story. Also in this case, the title of the film is the key to understanding it. Tale of Cinema refers to the plot, the structure of the narrative, the characters’ motivations and their interconnections, while also opening up the theme of self-reflexivity, which is richly represented in the film.
