I have never really watched Korean Movies only because I was too busy watching drama's but I have seen a few and those weren't very good so today I am here to review a movie I stumbled upon while in the midst of looking for a new drama.
The stars of this movie is Hyun Bi of Secret Garden and Lee Yeon Hee of Paradise Rance (she apeared in many SME music videos)
The story itself is a sad love story. It is a tearjerker, it woul make you cry so hard at the end you might be able to swim in your own tears. The story is about Jae Kyung (Hyun Bin) who is your average rich guy. Hes the badass who thinks he can get away with anything like going to school since he has money, but then he gets threatened by his deseased grandfather that he would not be able receave his inheritance unless he goes to Boram High School and graduates. The location where the school is actually the place his parenst died in a car accident. He was very depressed and forgot about the place. But he forgot about his first love Eun Hwan (who he actually ran into in seoul). While living in Gangwondo (provice) he slowly becomes friends with his classmates and learns more about Eun Hwan. He learns that she has a terminal disease and does whatever he can to make her happy. He even called his lawyer that he would trade his inheritance for the orphanged she dearly loved. Before graduating the graduationg class has to do a play and it was The Sound of Music. This play then reminded Jae Kyun of his own life and recalling that he was at the orphanage in Gangwondo and before leaving he promised her that he would come back after 10 day and 10 nights. He then apologizes for not fulfilling his promise for that very day his parents died and erase his memories of the unfortunte event. They kissed under the rain.
Finally during the play Jae Kyung changed roles and became the Colonel instead of the maid. But during the play Eun Hwan felt pain in her chest but returned to the stage much to Jae Kyung's worry. Her mother who she hadn't seen in 19 years came to watch. The play sucessfully ended.
After the play there was a small celebration and Eun Hwan and Jae Kyun are seen sitting together on a bench. Eun Hwan said she would sleep for 3 minutes but never woke up. The first snow of winter fell as she closed her eyes.
The movie ends with their graduation. Eun Hwan who never woke up had a bouquet of flowers sitting in her chair next to Jae Kyung. He stayed well after the ceremony and finaally got up holding that bouquet of flowers. His grandfathers lawyer who was in charge of his grandfather's will congratulated him and as of that time the inheritance was his.
