Highway Star



Fun, sweet, movie
This is a Korean film (subtitled) about a young rocker who is recruited by an entertainment company to train as a Trot singer. Trot is a popular genre of music in South Korea. To compare Trot to something American, it's crooning; the kind of music that Michael Buble sings. Most of the movie is spent watching this kid resist because he absolutely abhors the genre. This movie is a comedy. It's nothing deep or dramatic. It's just a very fun, sweet, refreshing, feel-good comedy. I'd recommend this movie to anyone that enjoys light fair and just wants to be entertained and laugh. For Americans, don't be concerned that it's a Korean film, it's easily relatable.
