let u begin by say that this film english title the power of kangwon province be an absolute misnomer . it be because in hong sang soo film and there be no actual shot of war and trouble and conflict . so the idea of establish power of a province be neither suitable nor valid in the context of this film . if we be to judge this film by it korean language title and kangwon do ui him be go to appear a a cryptic statement about emotional turmoil of it young protagonist whose mind be not at rest . hong sang soo have also direct a highly prolific visual document about erratic choice make by people in their life . the people in question be a couple of young girl who be constantly in the process of display their mood and whim and fancy . if make a film out of nothingness can be claim a a film maker meritorious virtue then hong sang soo have to be salute a a courageous film maker whose film speak volume about ubiquitous nothingness of human relationship and sentiment and life . whether one like it or not and this be the only fair conclusion that be deduce from this particular film .
