SYNOPSIS:
Kisu, a reserved young man, lives in a tiny basement studio apartment, earning his living as a driver. Although his future does not look that promising, Kisu never loses hope. His optimism however hides a deep trauma--he is eaten up by guilt at having been the cause of his brother Jongdae’s impotence, following an accident when they were children. In order to compensate for it, Kisu dedicates himself to protecting his brother for life. As for Jongdae, he desires to own a gun, which would make him feel stronger when confronted with the town’s delinquents. In these oppressive circumstances, Kisu is given his young nephew to look after. An intense friendship develops between the brothers and the child, in which two generations confront one another in order to understand and support one another better.

REVIEW:
" ...As the film progresses, the weaker elements of the film then gives way to one heck of a story. The focus of the film seems to shift to Jongdae and the tone becomes darker. Yu Ah-in, who played Jongdae, recently won the “best new actor” prize at the 2007 Pusan International Film Festival and deservedly so. He gives a wonderful performance - subtle but eye catching - and when taken in context with his stellar performance in “the Shim’s Family” he certainly could be considered one of the brightest young stars in Korea.
Cinematography was also top notch, with unassuming colors that brought to the foreground the thoughtful visual compositions in the film. A handful of images stayed in my mind after the movie finished. One would have been the shot of the older brother, Kisoo, in the studio with a guitar, with the camera focused solely on his black Converse Chuck Taylor All-Stars and the vintage guitar amp he sat on. He then starts to play a clumsy rendition of David Bowie/Nirvana’s “The Man Who Sold the World”. An unexpected moment that foreshadowed perfectly what would transpire in the final moments of the film. The other scene that wouldn’t leave my mind, would have been the scene with Jongdae listening against a wall, as screams came from the other room in the brothel. An absolutely heart wrenching moment.
In retrospect “Boys of Tomorrow” is a bleak coming of age story that ends with a glimmer of hope. The film brings up a few sub-topics that are not fleshed out well, but that’s easily forgiven as the story of the two brothers becomes more engrossing with each passing moment. One of the better films I have seen this year."
