Gay Short Films From South Korea


My Personal Trainer (South Korea)
YouTuber Jin Ho starts going to the gym to collect subscribers. But somehow he's more interested in good-looking trainer Seok Hoon than he is in shape. Looking at Seok Hoon, who is exceptionally friendly, Jin Ho is sure that Seok Hoon is also in love with him. Then, Seok Hoon and Jin Ho met in the shower. "Are you free today, sir?". Very funny and cute short film.

I'm Horny Now! (South Korea)
Taxi driver Chun-gil begins a search in Jongno in hopes of comforting his lonely heart. He chances upon and is immediately enamored by a young and good-looking Hyun-joon, who is in a chase onset by the discovery of his unfaithful lover's affair. But as the night deepens, this young boy turns out to be more of a drama queen.

Dom (South Korea)
Kingdom, a condom for convenience stores, is selected and sold by Ji Hoon. Kingdom is presented to Hyun Duk, Ji Hoon's lover, but when he wakes up, he finds himself in an unexpected place. What is the final destination of Kingdom? Nice direction and acting but I felt the story wasn't coherent.



Some More (South Korea)
A chance meeting between a two men. One, a young man passing through who has an accident on his bike, the other a slightly older man working on his family's farm. The two have instant chemistry and spend an idyllic summers day together. Lovely cinematography and development of the story in such a short time. This is definitely one of the better directed short films creating a full on story in such a short time.


Attraction (South Korea)
A man is strongly attracted to his senior officer in his unit and a woman develops a subtle emotion with her male colleague. However, both of them seem not to willingly embrace their own feelings toward their counterparts. It turns out both these people are actually a couple but are covering their feelings not just for one another but towards their respective attractions too.


Secret Spectacles (South Korea)
Story of two friend where one likes the other very much. He decides to buy glasses because he thinks he would look cool, but it turns out they can make him see his friend nude. It turns out that the fried always knew about this guy's fascination for him and was giving him hints, but our man was too preoccupied to even notice. A nice light funny premise perfect for a gay short.

Tilted Summer (South Korea)
On the second anniversary, Juno and Minjae make a trip. However, due to Juno’s mistake, they stay in a guest-house instead of a hotel. The new space will force them to re-evaluate their relationship and what they want from each other.

As If You Whisper (South Korea)
Bom Soo is an aspiring singer that is stuck doing vocal guides despite his talents as a musician. Then he meets Hyun Woo, a man that's been watching him for awhile. A friendship develops and eventually more. Though the story doesn't focus solely on the romance, I think the happy ending combined with Bom Soo's self realizations is such a wholesome completion. 

My Eleventh Brother (South Korea)
Sung-woo’s family is continuously adopting new children to fill in for the loss his brother who went missing a decade ago. Then the 11th brother comes. Sung-woo shares the secret with his 11th new elder brother, Sung-kyu. They are both gay. Finally the lonesome Sung-woo may have a chance for happiness.

Table Manner (South Korea)
On Min Jae's birthday, his lover Geon Woo book a restaurant. It was Hyun Soo, the former lover of Min Jae and Chef who appeared in front of the two people at the restaurant. Although the two pretend they don't know each other, a strange atmosphere emerges between the three.

The Shortest Distance is Round 3: Fallen Flowers

Continuing with the weird trilogy of "The Shortest Distance", I am so glad that finally I am done with part 3 and won't have to deal with this again in future. Thankfully, as of now the makers have not announced any further parts; which will save all of us on this earth from the embarrassment of watching this in near future. After the first 10 minutes are used in sort of recapping bits of first two parts, the story moves forward. Haruto is now starting to have feelings for Ruka, the mysterious pole dancer from second part. In a fit of rage, Ruka ends up killing the goat man and to save him and Haruto, Shibahara asks them to go underground. Meanwhile Shibahara continues the search for Seiya (the guy who had cut off Haruto's penis). It turns out Seiya is now also taking care of the original club owner from part 1. Both of them were released after they had informed Shibahara of Aoyama's secret location. Shibahara tortures Seiya's boyfriend leading to Seiya killin

One Summer Night (Korean)

I really wanted to like this film but for non native speakers, these movie leaves a lot to be understood and the way scenes were unfolding in front of me, I wasn't sure many times what was really going on. The story had potential button getting any back story on any of the characters limited my ability to empathize with any of these actors. Film starts with two North Korea military guys Yong Joon and Jae Sung having sex and they are caught red handed and they run. Three years later we see Yong Joon in Seoul leading a very mundane and poor life. He has a boyfriend Tae-Kyu, who is a weird guy. He is carefree, doesn't do any work and is completely emotional and financially dependent on Young Joon. In fact, even Yong Joon will go to any lengths to protect him , fend for him and taking care of him to the extent of even taking up prostitution. Suddenly one day Jae Sung appears in their life again. His motivation is not clear but it is obvious he wants Yong Joon back in his life, who

Ultimate masturbation: Shigoki no yama (Japanese) [The Ultimate Masturbation]

I would never know what was the point behind making this film. Was it supposed to be a comedy, cos it wasn't. It wasn't even porn. It was just a silly attempt at making something absolutely senseless and ridiculous. The story, as well as direction is equally shoddy. You could laugh for having seen something so bad, but I wouldn't call that comedy. An old man runs a camp about gay masturbation. The explanation given is that gays masturbate for pleasure unlike straight men, for whom the act is seen as shame or because they can't find a woman. One day a straight man shows up and wants to join the camp for his thesis. After discussion, he is allowed in. Rules include that you can masturbate together, you can masturbate one another, but there is no fellatio or anal sex. Some students of course breaks rule. The teacher then talks about 2 forms of masturbation which gives ultimate pleasure. He shows one without touching and then refuses to talk of the other. Somehow suddenly,
