The atmospheric SPA NIGHT is a portrait of forbidden sexual awakening set in the nocturnal world of spas and karaoke bars in Los Angeles' Koreatown. David Cho (Joe Seo in a breakthrough performance), a timid 18-year-old living with his financially-struggling immigrant parents, chances upon a secret cruising spot when he takes a job at an all-male spa. There he begins to realize hidden desires that threaten his life as a dutiful son and student.

Matias and Jeronimo have known each other since childhood. During the holiday before they begin high school, their friendship takes a new turn when they both experience their sexual awakening. However, Matias's father forces them apart when he takes a new job far away. Distance and family contempt for homosexuality leads Matias to deny his friend, and ultimately, himself. More than ten years later, Matias returns to his old town for Carnival with his girlfriend, where he unexpectedly runs into Jeronimo. Feelings between the two men slowly reappear, leading to a long-repressed awakening. But at what cost? DVD SPECIAL FEATURES: Interview with the director and cast, and a stills gallery
