Bilgi :We know better than any other generation how important energy is to our survival, be it renewable or not. But for the inhabitants of the world in Aachi & Ssipak, the solution is already there for everyone to see... and smell. Feces! Yes, that brown, stinky thing. The government controls the populace through special ID chips every citizen is forced to keep, and for every defecation they get a special popsicle, which in turns makes them even more addicted. But our heroes, Aachi & Ssipak, just want to have fun and get the popsicles without doing, ahem, the hard work. So they cause a ruckus, get the cyborg police on their trail, meet a strangely appealing woman with the most annoying of voices, and stir up more and more trouble. Korean animation still continues to struggle at the box office, but if the creativity shown in Jo Beom Jin's Aachi & Ssipak is any indication, that trend might soon end. A labor of love lasting over eight years, the film boasts quirky 2D characters along with state of the art 3D animation, a funky soundtrack, and finally the kind of story adults can have fun with. This is no Disney, folks. Featuring voice talent of the caliber of Ryu Seung Bum, Yim Chang Jung, singer Shin Hae Chul and even Hyun Young, Aachi & Ssipak is one of the most original and entertaining animation films to come out of Korea in years. After watching this, popsicles will certainly feel different!
