The two protagonists of Perfect One-Night Stand are just like two peas in a pot, with one always providing what the other one lacks. Ji-Hye, who's blessed with a picture-perfect face and tall, slender figure is a naive and innocent virgin looking to discover the world of sex. In contrast, Yoon Kyung who although small and petite in size is way more mature and aware of the realities of the online dating scene. Whenever Ji-Hye's is caught up with the thought of losing her virginity, it is Yoon Kyung who's calm and collected and goes out of her way to protect her best friend from doing something reckless or making some stupid mistake, making her what we would call a "true friend" who cares.
All in all, Perfect One-Night Stand is not just a coming-of-age short film about sexual desires, but rather a love letter to the innocence and curiosities of the youth and the genuine interactions and connections that one finds along the journey with Ji-Hye eventually saying goodbye to her loneliness and finding her “Mrs. Right” at the end of the film.
