Sweet & Sour

The film is entirely Korean. Some representations of work culture and social norms might confuse non-Korean viewers. Definitely assumes a male-centered perspective and worries about Jang-Hyeok's well-being more than Da-Eun's. Bo-Yeong and Da-Eun feature, but their characters are generally thin (the "other woman" and the "waiting woman at home" respectively), while Jang-Hyeok is clearly the main character. Fat-shaming.

A news story on the radio mentions a woman brutally stabbing her husband after finding out he cheated on her. A security guard encourages another man to "take advantage of an opportunity," implying that he should try to have sex with a woman colleague. Some fat-shaming jokes "motivate" a fat young man to lose weight.

Some romantic kissing. No nudity or sex scenes, but implied sex, as characters wake up the next morning in bed. A young woman announces that her period is late. Young adults flirt, cuddle, spoon. A young man briefly touches, over the clothes, a young woman's breast.

Strong language includes "f--k," "f--king," "s--t," "bitch," "a--hole," "ass," "d--kwad," "damn," "pissed," and "butt," plus "God!" and "Jesus Christ!" as exclamations.

Adults smoke cigarettes but are chastised for it, told that it isn't healthy. Adults drink alcohol at work events, at dinners, at home. Some get drunk and show drunken behavior. One woman doesn't remember what she did or said the following morning. Peer pressure: A young woman pressures a colleague to drink.
