He grimaces and drives away as soon as the light changes. He spots Oh-sol pressed against the window, her hair a mess and her mouth open in a giant yawn. He stops at a light, and his eyes trail over to the bus stopped next to him. In his car, Seon-gyeol nods along with all the signs on the street warning about pollution and spreading diseases, and he clucks his tongue at all the people walking around not wearing face masks. “This huge world we’re living in is full of many different kinds of people… as well as bacteria and viruses that cause diseases.” She just barely crams herself in to the crowded bus and stands among the other passengers, all while Seon-gyeol narrates his concerns with the world. While Seon-gyeol makes his way to his appointment in his pristine car, our rumpled heroine, GIL OH-SOL ( Kim Yoo-jung) slouches at the bus stop. Before he leaves, he makes a note of all of the less-than-pristine things he noticed and leaves it on the mirror for the housekeeper. He does this a third time at a third sink before he finally gets into the shower.Īt breakfast, he notes a small smudge on his butter knife, and there’s a spot on the mirror in his closet as well as he gets dressed. He washes his hands at the sink, throws his towel into the laundry basket and then… moves on to the next sink, right next to the first, to begin his ritual again. He greets the vacuum, named Geum-ja, and begins his morning ritual. Just in time, that young boy, now grown man JANG SEON-GYEOL ( Yoon Kyung-sang), wakes up from the nightmare, the noise of his dutiful robot vacuum roaring through his room. He opens his mouth wide to scream in horror, and that’s when she flicks the booger in his direction, a perfect arc heading right for his mouth… But when she turns around, the boy discovers her dirt-covered finger jammed far up her nose. And too many sinks is only the beginning of the zaniness that this show is embracing from the start, though I’m glad to report that the goofy is grounded in the big emotions of its characters.Ī well-dressed young boy stalks up to a little girl on a playground and asks to play with her.
How many sinks in a single room is too many sinks? It seems that we may approach the limit in Clean with Passion for Now, as its germaphobe protagonist attempts to navigate a world teeming with bacteria and the people carrying it, on their bodies and in their souls.
