Alexa_MortonJuly 11, 2025This is the director's longest film to date. Hong Sang-soo said the inspiration came from a late-night phone call he made from New York to South Korea. His wife was shopping at a mall in Seoul, where it was daytime, while in New York, it was the middle of the night. The difference in time zones inevitably influenced their emotional states—one person felt like sharing their thoughts, while the other was preoccupied with mundane things. Hong Sang-soo found this disjointed emotions intriguing: one person belonged to the night, the other to the day. That’s how Night and Day was born.

Alison_MoonJuly 11, 2025Esta es la película más larga del director hasta la fecha. Hong Sang-soo dijo que la inspiración surgió de una llamada telefónica que hizo de madrugada desde Nueva York a Corea del Sur. Su esposa estaba de compras en un centro comercial de Seúl, donde era de día, mientras que en Nueva York era plena noche. La diferencia horaria influyó inevitablemente en sus estados emocionales: uno quería compartir sus pensamientos, mientras que el otro estaba ocupado con cosas mundanas. Hong Sang-soo encontró intrigante esa desconexión emocional: una persona pertenecía a la noche y la otra al día. Así nació Night and Day.

Mago do FilmeJune 19, 2025Este é o filme mais longo do diretor até hoje. Hong Sang-soo disse que a inspiração veio de um telefonema noturno que ele fez de Nova York para a Coreia do Sul. Sua esposa estava fazendo compras em um shopping em Seul, onde era dia, enquanto em Nova York era madrugada. A diferença nos fusos horários influenciou inevitavelmente os seus estados emocionais — uma pessoa queria conversar sobre seus pensamentos, enquanto a outra estava preocupada com coisas mundanas. Hong Sang-soo achou essas emoções desconexas intrigantes: uma pessoa pertencia à noite, a outra ao dia. É assim Noite e Dia nasceu.
