Business Trip Massage: Excited Ladies

About This Movie

So, this one, 'Business Trip Massage: Excited Ladies,' is quite the odd duck. It dives into the lives of characters who seem lost in their own corporate existential crises. Myeong-jin, for instance, is really feeling the weight of leaving her job, surrounded by friends who are equally adrift. The film has this relaxed pacing, almost meandering, which oddly reflects their languid lifestyle. The dialogues feel real, almost like you're eavesdropping on a coffee break. The atmosphere is infused with a sort of melancholic tension, as they navigate personal connections amidst the backdrop of a massage business that feels both liberating and exploitative. It’s distinct for its raw portrayal of romance intertwined with the mundane, leaving you with a lot to chew on long after.
