Haha currently watching circle, and cuz I can't wait for Monday, on a jin goo movie spree. Once again, I was impressed. Solomon's Perjury and Intuition must have been poorly made movies. Story: Basically north korean boy soldier (he's like barely 18) finds a top secret document and while trying to hide it from south korean soldier they become friends. A pretty decent story, nothing complex, but definitely enjoyable. Characters: -Young Kwang: played by Jin Goo, and this boy is freaking adorable. I have seen Jin Goo play the tragic teenage lover (Moon Embraces the Sun), the loyal and determined brother (Circle), the schizophrenic patient (Shoot my heart), and now the young soldier boy. All the roles are so different from each other, but he does well in each one. In this role he plays a dumb (funny dumb), cute, innocent, boy soldier. Honestly he made me laugh and cry so hard, I absolutely loved his character! It was also interesting to hear the north's side from him, something I've never heard before (don't know if it's accurate though). -Nam Bok: gosh I loved his character, he is so determined and funny! I love how kind he is and how he tries to reach out toward Young Kwang. It's really beautiful to watch. I also liked how he showed the south perspective, and how unnecessary war is. I really loved his interactions with Young Kwang and his dad story! Bromance: The bromance was great! Great chemistry, plenty of laugh out loud moments, and definitely crying at the end. I really liked what they showed through their friendship. Both sides are human, and its really unnecessary to fight like this, especially when opposing sides could be friends. Ending: Just get your tissue box. It's worth it though! Overall, I would reccomend it! It has great acting, characters, story, is funny, and is touching! I was hesitant to watch it, but I'm glad I did!
