Everything start sweet but LDR usually turns a relationship sour, especially if the two person got a job, hard to communicate, rarely seeing each other, so it's not strange if there's a change in feelings.
This film is pretty good on describing this kind of relationship, we get to see Jang Hyeok and Daeun from a sweet couple to the verge of collapse because of LDR.
It's really hard to see our couple shattered here, but what happened in the end, that happens for good.
The message this film trying to deliver from my understanding is love between 2 people requires trust, mutual understanding and appreciation, especially if you in LDR.
There a twist in the end, I didn't see it coming but I gotta say it make sense, Daeun was hurt and she deserve a good ending, she gets a man who can appreciate her more. It's not spoiler I guess. Just watch it, you'll get it.

had a plot twist but also... meh
From the trailer alone i could understood the whole plot twist. i hate trailers so much... but with that being said... i dont feel good about the ending. it lacked meaning.i think the FL (nurse) is not really happy with her new boyfriend, and the ML is not at all that sorry he lost her either. Both of them just needed someone. Anyone. Anyone that had time for them.
Didn't matter who. The nurse repeated everything she did with the ML with her new bf just to end up miserable. Same habits, same gifts, same way of falling in love at the hospital... that's a massive red flag if you ask me. And seriously sad. Assuming they were on a break for awhile, then both of them slept around during that time, but the movie kinda makes it seem as if the male lead has more to blame than the female lead, when they equaly had other partners in between.
the plot would make a lot more sense if at least one of them had a true happy ending with a "i am over you" moment. the way the FL was not that happy in the moment of the plane departure, and how desperate the ML was to just be with any of the girls tells me not a single person had a good ending.
and that's life!! but also... what's the message of the movie then? that life is hard when work gets in the way? well yeah. we all know that. what's the real message here? Am i supposed to side or relate to whom?

A fun, introspective watch.
Sweet and Sour is a movie about a young couple who face stress in their relationship due to the long distance romance they have to keep up with. It deals with infidelity led along the lines of emotional level as well as physical (to an extent.)The plot isn’t exceptional, but the way it has been filmed and depicted does show an original twist. The FL is a character who needs to connect on an emotional level to feel the romance and the male lead masks the distance between them as reason why he drifts out of the relationship. Both of them represent such different kind of circumstances and reactions despite being in the same relationship.
The movie has its cute moments, some wtf moments, moments that make you introspect on the flawed nature of both the characters.

Good Plot Twist…
The movie itself wasn’t horrible, in fact it was pleasant to watch, but it just didn’t spark too much of an interest in me. The plot twist at the end was one of the only reasons why I would recommend or rewatch this movie. It is a bit more on the contemporary side so if that’s what’s you like, then this movie might be for you.Esta resenha foi útil para você?
Sweet & sour
Krystal was there so I needed to watch it. And she did good, although her character was a little weird. Main leads - Jang Ki Yong' and Chae Soo Bin's characters were annoying and well they are not really good partners. Storyline is really realistic and the plot twist proves it and it is a big advantage. I could not rate it higher only because it was a little boring, despite the fact how much I liked Krystal's scenes.Esta resenha foi útil para você?
«Sweet & Sour» suit la relation de deux personnes, et les changements que celle-ci subit lorsqu’une de ces personnes se voit transférer à un poste plus loin de chez lui, les forçant tous les deux à avoir une relation longue distance. Ce film est actuellement assez réel, on ne suit pas une histoire parfaite, ou quoi que ce soit. Non, on voit les problèmes qui s’accumulent, que ce soit quelque chose de simple, comme la fatigue et le traffic pour se rendre au travail, à d’autres bien plus complexes. Les acteurs ont été excellents, et le retournement final, fut une vraie surprise ! Malgré tout, j’avoue que ce ne fut pas mon film favoris, un des sujets étant quelque chose que je n’apprécie pas du tout (infidelité, même émotionnelle) même si j’ai passé un bon moment.

Your Enjoyment of this Completely Hinges on the Last 10 Minutes of this Movie
I think this movie is hard to recommend and equally hard NOT to recommend. Without spoilers, I can't explain why, but whether or not you enjoy this is completely based upon your reaction to the last few moments of this movie. Some people will think it is a masterful ending. Some people will feel completely cheated. Therefore, you won't be able to make an informed decision for yourself about whether to give this a watch or not unless you don't mind directly looking up spoilers on the internet. Personally, I didn't think the ending was particularly clever, but it was certainly unique.This movie felt well-acted, but all the other elements felt average to me.

A realistic look into the human heart
This movie sort of reminded me of an old fairytale/fable, with a godfather, moral of the story etc. Romance comes second to what is ultimately a slice of life movie.I feel like the biggest reason it is getting such negative critique is because the whole concept of cheating doesn't align with peoples' moral compasses and then everything else they watch is automatically seen with a more judging eye.
To be honest, I felt that the movie did a great job aligning to everyones' moral compass.
It showed that a lot of factors can come into the swaying of the human heart (the desire to take care of someone, location and just being present, workplace commitment, timing conflicts etc).
It showed that we can often be blind, irrational, and take for granted what has already been obtained.
It showed that there are many reasons one enters into a relationship. It showed that love... can be fleeting.
However, it also provided a glimpse of hope that there may be some good people, who can love someone irrationally, who can show good gestures from the heart, and that those who perservere in this way will, quote on quote, "get the girl".
But ultimately, this was a movie that really captured the weakest parts of the human heart, made vulnerable for the world to see.
It wasn't an extravagant and mind blowing movie, but it accomplished what it had set out to do. A light-hearted movie with some thought provoking moments that I would recommend to anyone that just wants a nice and relaxing watch.

An okay movie, not a priority watch at all
I love Chae Soobin, I watched the movie only for her. I might be biased but she carried the movie on her back by successfully keeping the audience's sympathy with her character until the very end.40% of the movie were montages of the guy cheating that contributed nothing to the plot.
Overall, watch it if you're bored as hell and have absolutely nothing else to do. The movie doesn't make you laugh, doesn't make you cry, doesn't have any thrill element, only fills you with dread at the characters' bad decisions and their audacity to behave the way they do, worst of all, it all seems too realistic to brush it off.
The twist was unexpected and made the movie worth something. Would I recommend it to anyone? A solid no.

An interesting depiction of the progressions in distancing relationships
I felt very queasy and anxious watching this, mirroring the tone and mood of the movie. There is a sense of mystery coupled with foreboding that keeps you enticed the same way you can't look away at a car crash on the freeway. The story's message comes around full circle so I want to acknowledge the effort on that. I suggest watching this movie blindly with no expectations.Esta resenha foi útil para você?

Creative production & A “Realistic” Story
Watching the trailer, I knew I was getting into the themes of cheating though what I didn’t expect was how it would be played out in the movie. It was the storytelling that actually made me rate this a relatively high score. At first, you would think you would already know the flow of the story and towards the end, you would realize you didn’t all along. Based on the other reviews, yes, it may seem confusing but personally, I do actually think it was an artistic move. It made the movie much more interesting and creative in a sense however, I personally wanted a closure to Da Eun and Jang Hyuk’s relationship.Story wise , I think it takes on a very realistic approach to relationships that not every relationship works. As the title connotes, every relationship has its sweet and sour moments. In the end, It all depends on the two people in the relationship whether they choose to be together and love each other or not.
The actors all did a great job on portraying their roles and well contributed to the story. All in all, I think it was still a good watch even if I spoiled myself by reading reactions on twitter (lol).
