Watch No Other Choice then! It has the things you thought Decision to Leave was lacking.
I think Song Seo-Rae's arc makes sense. She's too troubled to keep going and doesn't want to continue on her path of destruction. She feels she can't belong and every time she's taken up agency to do anything, she screws everything up! Maybe it is very unsatisfying and wrong for there to be a character who can't fit in this world, but I didn't mind it too much. Maybe a different ending could've made the movie a lot better than it already is, though.
I agree that it doesn't have a huge amount to say beyond its own confines; it's fundamentally just a really tightly paced and well executed star crossed lovers story. I absolutely adore it for how it uses some sprinkles of surrealism, the idiosyncratic cuts with similar compositions across different contexts, and the setups and payoffs.
