In which the Monsters join me in reviewing LOST IN STARLIGHT (2003), from director Han Ji-won with writing credits to Han Ji-won and Kang Hyun-joo. The Korean animated film is a sci-fi romance set in 2050 Seoul. It follows Nan-young (Kim Tae-ri), an astronaut preparing for a mission to Mars to follow in her late mother's footsteps, and Jay (Hong Kyung), a musician who restores retro sound equipment. Their relationship, which begins after a chance meeting, is tested by the vast distance and time difference when Nan-young embarks on her mission, forcing them to navigate a long-distance relationship spanning light-years. The film clocks in at 1 h and 36 m, is rated PG and is currently streaming on @Netflix. Please note there are SPOILERS in this review.
