Welcome to Dongmakgol (2005)

WtD is set during the Korean War (North Vs South) but it’s not a typical war movie. It’s not even a typical Korean movie. It’s adapted from a stage play, so it’s primarily about characters. It’s a quirky, funny, heart-warming tale of people on opposite sides of a divide with a strong anti-war sentiment.
It’s a war movie for people who don’t like war movies.
