Jenny, Juno is a 2005 South Korean romance film written and directed by Kim Ho-jun.
[2] The plot centers around the relationship of a 15-year-old couple, Jenny (Park Min-ji) and Juno (Kim Hye-sung), who meet in school.
Juno starts delivering newspapers to earn additional money to buy the food that Jenny desires.
Jenny is scheduled to be sent to the United States where her eldest sister lives, but her parents refuse to allow the two to meet anymore.
The film's subject matter provoked intense discussion in the media upon its release in South Korea.
Critics expressed concerns that the film's presentation of teenage pregnancy was unrealistic, in that Jenny is from a well-to-do, secure family that is able to support her decision, and that this might send the wrong message to less fortunate teens.
Kim Ho-jun, the film's director, responded to this criticism by stating: Jenny and Juno are certainly wayward children who should have never done a thing they did for their age.
