    Mi-so is a young woman living in poverty in Microhabitat, so decides to cut a big ticket item out of her budget. Not the whisky and cigarettes that are her only pleasures. No, instead she foregoes paying rent. And thus begins a controversial picaresque, as she visits various old friends and asks to crash there for a night or more. And while the circumstances of each address, whether tragic or comic, aren't ideal and force her to move on, she does tend to bring a sort of healing to each friend. Whether they appreciate it enough or not really depends. Personally, I'm a little like Mi-so. I've depended on the generosity of friends, but in turn, often offered sanctuary to friends even if they couldn't pay their proper share of the rent. So if she wants a place to crash, I don't see a problem. I live a little far from Seoul though. Microhabitat is poignant study of a true free spirit, limited neither by judgmentalism nor ambition, and how people tend to see others as a burden rather than look at them for what they can contribute. Very affecting. 1 month 1 week ago
