Description:

"History of Losers" is a compelling romantic comedy that candidly explores the often-pathetic yet universally relatable facets of love and relationships. The film offers a hyperrealistic portrayal of individuals at their lowest, expertly blending genuine laughter with deep empathy that transcends discomfort. Central to the story is Seo Min Ki, a thoughtful but hesitant college freshman majoring in Korean literature. Despite his ideological personality and constant self-reflection, his well-intentioned but often clumsy actions frequently lead to mistakes. As a simple outsider whose greatest desires are drinks with friends and internet cafe games, his journey navigates the diverse and thrilling, albeit sometimes embarrassing, forms of love that can undeniably turn anyone into a 'loser.' This adaptation of the popular webtoon promises a uniquely uncomfortable yet hilarious and empathetic dive into modern romance.
