Plot summary written by: Irishlass240 |
| Days of Being Wild (1991) | The story and the plot are generally in the same flow. However, the plot has a bit more self-narrative of the characters and a bit more extra scenes of the story.

Summer Palace (2006)
 | It's not often you come across a Chinese Indie-style art house film in Korea.
