"Something to Do before Dying" chronicles the humdrum life of Su-yeon, a typical 20-something Seoulite who hates her job and her life, deciding one day to throw it all away by committing suicide. Over the course of a single day, we follow her as she prepares herself. This low-budget indie was shot on video, giving it a home movie-like quality that enhances the reality of what transpires on the screen.
Writer
Seok-ho, a self-styled playboy with a beautiful wife, is fooling around with Ji-yeon, a voluptuous photographer, but pines for Chae-young, a college student who appears to be the most virtuous girl in all of Korea. But it turns out that Chae-young, who frustrates her suitor at every turn, is not so chaste after all. The plot thickens as Seok-ho's best friend Young-su, outwardly awkward and shy, sets his sights on Ji-yeon, not realizing that she is already involved with his best buddy.
