Boy Meets Boy in theaters soon
by | November 5, 2008 | 29 Comments

I’ve been talking about the short queer film Boy Meets Boy for a while now, and it’s finally being released.

The nearly wordless short film, starring Kim Hye-sung (Unstoppable High Kick) and Lee Hyun-jin (Kimchi Cheese Smile) as 18-year-old high school students, is billed as a queer romance about first love, and bears the tag “based on a true story.”

The film held its press conference on November 5, and will have a theater release in six theaters — unusual for a short — starting on November 20, which will also feature a segment on the making of the film. (Because it won’t be shown with other shorts, the ticket price is also lower, at about half the price of regular movie tickets.)

 
(Am not a fan of Kim Hye-sung‘s hair, although I suppose it brings out his pretty features and makes him look more feminine.)

    KHS is just so adorable and gorgeous at the same time. He’s kinda short but such a cutie. Can’t wait to see it, sure wish there was an audio though. *sighs*… they’re both hotties…. hehe (@o@ )Y

    Wow, his hair coupled with his body shape (more emphasized by the skin-tight leather jacket, methinks) is totally reminiscent of Ellen Page from Juno.

    … I’m not sure whether that’s a good thing or bad.

    … Maybe it’s the high forehead?!

    In any case, this movie looks interesting. I’m a sucker for any good romance. :)

    Is it true that this movie is based on true story and it’s only 13 minutes length? That’s a let down. I was expecting at least 30 minutes….
