Jay, an international student from Thailand, comes to Korea to see his friend Seong Hun. The two enrolled in the same college class called "Health and Happiness" and need to submit a physical body assessment for their final project. While Seong Hun already works out regularly, Jay isn't in the greatest shape and struggles in the gym. Enter Jin Uk, a personal trainer who takes a special interest in Jay, much to Seong Hun’s displeasure. However, there's something strange about Jin Uk. Despite his kindness toward Jay, suspicions begin to rise that Jin Uk may be involved in a murder and missing person incident. Is there a happy ending in store for Jay and Seong Hun, or will Jay's budding relationship with Jin Uk cost him an unspeakable price?

Although TheMovieDB might provide a key to a YouTube video, there is no guarantee that the video might be present at YouTube.
Most data and links to images for the Movies section come from TheMovieDB (TMDB).
Additional data for Film Titles come from The Open Movie Database (OMDb).
At least one plug-in comes from IMDb.
Data are -- hey, it's a plural -- subject to the limitations of their sources. (For example, TMDB search results currently max out at 20.) I am limiting myself to free data sources for now. (No, a "free trial" is not free.)
While much of the above data are retrieved directly from outside APIs and other such sources, data from American Film Institute (AFI) and British Film Institute (BFI) were manually entered the old fashioned way into a MySQL database. Re BFI I took the following liberties:
Regarding profile removals and data corrections:
Filtering is applied here to film projects flagged as "adult" by TheMovieDB. Pending "popular demand" I am contemplating a login and profile system with preferences (such as whether to allow adult images to appear) and permissions (such as data entry).
Whereas the overall purpose of this website is to serve as a personal demo/portfolio/workshop of web and data skills, this Movies section is not meant to compete with or substitute for far more definitive movie websites.
