About On the Occasion of Remembering the Turning Gate
Jilted from a prospective casting opportunity, the rather unsuccessful actor, Kyung-soo takes off to Chuncheon where he meets a woman who temps him into a one-night stand. Heading home, he meets another woman on the train and pursues her. Ultimately Turning Gate is a film that has much to say about relationships and human nature through its explorations of imitation and repetition. The cynical humor that has been a trademark of filmmaker Hong Sangsoo once again runs throughout the film, yet with more sophistication in cinematic play.

Kyung-Soo (Kim Sang-Kyung, Lawyers) is an actor, but his last movie was a failure and he has just missed out on a new role. Disappointed and disgusted, he takes a trip to visit a friend and meets two very different women, Myung-Suk (Ye Ji-Won) and Sun-Young (Chu Sang-Mi, Lawyers).
