Sometimes it takes a humble Bunt to win the game. Esteemed actor Jung Jin Young, perhaps best known for his role as the king in King and The Clown, explores the difficulties of parenthood in Park Kyu Tae’s gentle 2007 debut film. Like Marathon and Herb, Bunt offers a mixture of harried hardships and childish innocence in portraying a father’s experience raising a mentally challenged son. Park Kyu Tae previously wrote the hit comedy Hi, Dharma, and his new film carries that same touch of unassuming humor and comedic details, balancing the story’s grave reality with a light-hearted tone. It is easy to root for this well-meaning film and its underdog protagonist.

With an IQ of only 60, 11-year-old Dong Gu (Choi Woo Hyuk) is often teased in school, but he’s as happy as a clam as long as he gets to pour water from his favorite big kettle during lunch. Dong Gu’s teachers want to transfer him to a special institute, and his father (Jung Jin Young) just wants him to live as normal a life as possible. In order to stay in school, bumbling Dong Gu joins the baseball team which is in need of members. He is initially of little use for the team until they discover his ability to bunt.
