The film was ordinary yet the sweet and innocent storyline led me to feel nostalgic towards my childhood, and remember lost loved ones.
Most of the beginning was a drag, but I guess it’s necessary in shaping up the story towards a remarkable end. The film reminded me of the anime ‘Ano Hana’, yet I don’t want to be so quick to judge.
I’m impressed that the actors were able to portray their roles well as some scenes, mostly Soo Ok’s disability and the other characters frustrations over the tragic demise, seemed convincing.
As heartbreaking as it is, I’m glad that the writers didn’t sugar-coat Soo Ok’s depression by forcing the character to have a tough and never-give-up outlook on life. Soo Ok’s attitude and decision depicted the harsh reality on how hopeless people can get on situations where there are no means of resolve.
The soundtracks, I’m captivated! The combination of western and korean songs was well thought of, and including Karla Bonoff’s edition of ‘The Water is Wide’ onto the film simply puts the cherry on top.
