Waikiki Brothers

Take a look at the true life!

Directed by Yim Soon-rye

Produced by Myung Films, CJ Entertainment

A melancholic character study of a struggling band confronting stagnation, lost love, and the gap between youthful promise and adult disappointment in a faded hometown.

Waikiki Brothers is a band going nowhere. After another depressing gig, the saxophonist quits, leaving the three remaining members to continue on the road. The band ends up at the lead singer's hometown, which was a popular hot spring resort in the '80s, but the return home is filled with reservations of previous and past disappointments, a lost love, unemployment and tragedy.
