Possible Love (2026) Review

"Possible Love" Poster

“Possible Love” Poster

The last 12 months could well be argued to be the best year for Korean cinema since 2003. It may seem like an improbable statement considering the film industry is still largely in a slump, driven by a lack of cinema attendance which has stubbornly refused to bounce back since the COVID-19 pandemic days, however at the same time the quality is hard to ignore. Park Chan-wook returned with No Other Choice, Na Hong-jin broke his 10-year drought with Hope, and local box office records were smashed by Jang Hang-jun’s The King’s Warden. Adding to the impressive turnout is Possible Love by director Lee Chang-dong, who last helmed Burning in 2018, a production which has frequently topped lists of greatest Korean films in the years since its release.

While Burning was an adaptation of a short story by Japanese author Haruki Murakami, Possible Love started life as part of a broader global project, which intended for different directors to helm their own feature length takes of episodes from Krzysztof Kieślowski’s TV mini-series Dekalog. Originally linked to Dekalog: Ten, once Netflix joined the production its association to the project diminished, with Chang-dong’s latest landing on screen as its own standalone movie (notably the project continued, with director Asghar Farhadi’s 2026 production Parallel Tales being the first to be released, an adaptation Continue reading →
