The CinePearl Take
Lee Min‑woo (in his breakout role) delivers a delightfully earnest performance, capturing the nervous energy of a rookie driver learning to trust his instincts. Nam’s pacing balances rapid city‑scape chase sequences with quieter, reflective moments that let the film breathe. The central theme of generational exchange feels fresh, turning a simple “first ride” into a metaphor for taking life’s next step.
