Storyline

In "Plastic Tree," a couple is besieged with the problem of sexual dysfunction. 

They one day invite in an unexpected roommate and soon find themselves caught in 

a maddening love triangle that ends in tragedy. 

Korean version

The title of the film Plastic Tree is taken from a song by the rock group Radiohead, 

though the connection between the two eludes this writer. A bizarre combination of drama 

and horror, the film is one of the strangest to get a general theatrical release this year. 

The story revolves around a love triangle between Su (Kim In-gweon), a painfully shy barber 

living on the shores of Pusan; Won-yong (Jo Eun-suk), his listless live-in girlfriend 

who works for a delivery service; and Byong-ho (Kim Jung-hyun), Su's psychotic childhood 

friend who makes a long and unwelcome visit. 

The love triangle that develops among the three friends starts off slowly like

 a gentle melodrama, but by the end it swallows everyone whole. Some critics have likened 

the films unusual narrative twists to avant-garde French cinema, an aesthetic comparison 

that would be putting the characters? puzzling behaviors mildly. 

The relationships turn into a bad Freudian comedy, with sexual repressions 

and unresolved memories that would give Norman Bates a good run for his money. 

A sea of emotion is set loose in "Plastic Tree"! 

Su (Kim In-kwon) has ever since been a person with an introverted character, 

but he nevertheless managed to single-handedly open a barbershop at Pusan's seaside. 

What's more since he gets along with his girlfriend Won-young quite well they have been 

living together for quite a while. However, everything is about to change when Su's 

straying friend Byung-ho (Kim Jung-hyun) comes for a visit... 

Won-young who has a simple attitude towards emotions is attracted to the more outgoing 

Byung-ho who also starts to develop feelings for her. Su tries to block their progressing 

relationship as he fears that he might lose his girlfriend. But the harder Su tries, 

the more Won-young despises him longing for the embrace of Byung-ho...
