    This moved me in a way that not many things can. Depression has had me in a vice grip since a very early age. I've only recently gotten to a place where I'm not obsessing over death. For years, not a day passed that I didn't think about ending my life. I just never could muster up the courage to do it. The closest I got were the nights I tested my limits with opiates and alcohol, but never quite crossed that line. Thank you for this, Tiger Ji and crew. The world is a little less lonely when you realize others relate so strongly. We love you, Bobby. You did great. For those of you having similar experiences, I hope you find a way to care about/for yourself. Even if we are depressed, we can still bring love, joy, and a helping hand to others. I like to think that's worth sticking around for.

    For Bobby Lee to be so well known as a comedian, he is completely underrated as an actor and storyteller.

This short film captured the exact moment I had with my father before he passed. I wish he could have seen this. Thank you, thank you so much for capturing this kind of emotion.

    I've been living with a grade IV GBM in my brain for four years now. It was supposed to have killed me before the end of or by the end of 2020. It's essentially a death sentence, no matter what though. It's only a matter of when it starts to spread again, at this point. Movies like this really help to cope with death, reminding me that it's nothing personal, it's something we all experience, and that I should be grateful for every extra second, minute, hour, day, week, month, and year of life 've managed to steal. I love both actors, but I had no idea Bobby Lee could be so great at dramatic acting. Thank you, Tiger Ji. This is divine.

Loved the lighting, sound and lensing. That shot of Bob after the sink cut to the kitchen punched me in the stomach. Damn straight. Great job.

Which I think speaks to him and maybe his connection to this short story. I’ve gone through some of the same things Bobby is going through and like the writing was like “damn that’s me”. That’s excellent writing. The cinematography was excellent good editing. The writing really was the winner. Shit made me cry.

    This is where I write the most amazing commentary in the whole collection of comments on this short film. Are you ready for it? This was slightly more good than I thought it was going to be. I love kimchi so much. I love Bobby Lee and his raw humanity a little less and I love short ones on KZread. Thank you for this devine break that made me feel sad like sometimes Bobby Lee feels in his personal life. And at the same time, he and his side-kick, Death, made me laugh and smile so hard. I do not relate to the suicidal tendancies the way this film does but I still got a lot out of it. The move down the streets up to the house and the window followed by the family sharing almost broke my heart. All of the moves were clearly non-negotiable and Death just worked with them. I liked that. OMG, I want kimchee now like I want to live! So good.
