This is one of the movies where I'd like to call it a "cheat" movie, because in your head you know & can point out some flaws here and there, the simple storyline; but your heart just can't be harsh to it, and you just gotta cheat and give them a 10 anyways for the heart twinging ending ;___;
Their chemistry was just lovely as well; I would love to see Joong Ki & Bo Young act together again one day.
Of course everyone has their own opinions on the movie, but anyone that laughs at this movie for its ending is just too heartless.

I think there's quite a lot to say about the story. First of all I liked the simplicity behind it. It didn't have much of those twists and such that normally make the movie more interesting and is often a reason I like one. But I honestly think this didn't need those. It was great without any thing all too special.
I do think though that the fantasy bit was not necessary. When I watched the movie I didn't even realise it had anything to do with fantasy and in my opinion it wouldn't have been any less good without any fantasy at all. And I dont think it came through properly at all anyway.
I loved that it had its funny moments and its sad moments and its REALLY sad moments when I was sitting here crying and its moments where people like me just cant help but smile. So yeah me liked the story quite a bit.
The acting was great. Theres not really a lot to say about it than that. I loved how the characters interacted with each other. I for one could easily tell the relationship between two people, which made it easy to follow. In a movie I think its quite important to show how people stand to each other because we dont have the time to really get used to it as we do in dramas and I they managed to portrait that very well. I especially like the relationship between the two leads but I have to admit that the male lead and the little sister of the female lead were really cute together as well. I really loved watching them.
Im not someone who usually pays attention to music in a drama/movie. Reason is that I simply forget. Only if something really doesnt fit at all Im like 'What the hell is up with that?!'
Dont get me wrong I do appreciate music but if I dont realise its there that usually means that it fits well enough for me to just blend it in with the whole scene. In this movie they kept it quite simple and I liked that. Its not very strong by itself (that's not meant in a negative way) but it simply helps the scene perfectly. Also, I really liked that one song played on guitar by the lead thats also in the credits.
I do think the movie has a high rewatch value as its, like I probably mentioned like a thousand time already, easy to follow. It is NOT a movie to just casually watch either though. But then again, that might just be me not being able to handle sad movies properly. Im always crying about mainly everything so yeah. I'd probably need some time before I'd watch it again. But that might as well just be me being strange.
Overall a really really great movie I liked and it once again proved me right that Song Joong Ki can act.
So generally if you like sad movies that make you smile more than once and kind of laugh a litte in between thats it for you.
Hope it helped and yeah, have fun watching it right? :'D

A werewolf boy it was on my watch list for such a long time but never watched it up until recently. This movie is giving me the taste of pure love. A werewolf boy a wild boy falling in love to human girl and how it develops, it is such a pure love, how girl works on him to teach him how to eat, how to behave, how to read.
So does he protected her from her so called fiance when he had a rape attempt and killed the guy. After that they go in different routes.
When both reunite 45 years later, she said I came back, why did you wait, I had continued to my life, had fun, travelled. Now I am an old lady, got wrinkles, gone gray, Cheol Su still looks the same as he was 47 years ago...
after that moment Cheol Su speaks, says no you are still the same, your smile never changed...
She is also shocked as he could not speak before, she spend the night where he sleeps, he read her a book, the book that her father gifted to her and she gave it to Cheol Su...
When she was talking the Cheol Su suddenly she turns young again. they had a hug ( I think we are seeing it from Cheol Su's eyes, for him she is always young and beautiful)
When she woke up in the morning he was gone. When she and her granddaughter was leaving, we see him making a snow man.
I wish they had given us a kiss..
I never thought that I would be bawling in this movie.. but I was bawling..
Song Joong Ki did an brilliant job playing Cheol-su. Although he was silent up until the last moments of the movie..
We see he never gave up waiting for her, he never lost his hopes.
This movie shows us Song Joong Ki is such a great actor, he only used his body language here and it was so brilliant.
This drama deserves a remake..

I never thought a movie would make me feel like that..i'm thinking about the movie so much since i've watched it...it's so heart touching, actually no words can describe it.
It's a movie that will create all kind of feelings. It's such a beautiful but yet tragic story about pure and unfulfilled love.
The acting of Song Joong Ki was really remarkable in a such a difficult role. Even though he spoke only a little( and that little made you cry ) he made you feel touched by his expressions and moves. I loved his character and what he did, he makes you fall in love with this character. Also Park Bo Young was very good at her role. I loved their chemistry.
The song of this movie is one of the songs you will never forget, so beautiful and sad.
I thought about some parts of the movie a lot of times in order to justify some things about what happened. This is the first time a movie did that to me. Eveytime i'm thinking about some parts of the movie, i feel so moved.
I would definitely rewatch it even though i will cry again and feel very moved.
One of the saddest movies.

This review may contain spoilers
Intial thoughts before watching were pretty basic: I wanted to know what the hype was. I was familiar with the leads and the story seemed quite interesting. Story (TINY SPOILERS BECAUSE I DON'T KNOW HOW TO TALK ABOUT THIS STORY WITHOUT POINTING OUT SOME THINGS SO BE FAIRLY WARNED): I can't say I enjoyed the beginning because (SPOILER) it became a flashback story and for some reason I don't like those. I don't like episodes of dramas that start at the end and then rewind and I don't like movies that do it either. I enjoyed the middle, I loved the story but I didn't like the ending because (SPOILER) I didn't like him being alone. I really wanted Chul Soo to get his family and the ending goes with hating the flashback type stories.. it's just not my cup of tea. I will say the the story between the two leads left me wanting more- I wanted them together and I think that might have to do with how great Park Bo Young and Song Joong Ki sold their roles. I think the story would have been better if the ending and beginning were cut out.. sorry (not sorry).
Cast: With Park Bo Young and Song Joong Ki in it why not give it chance, right? I wasn't that impressed with Oh My Ghostess or Descendants but I did enjoy Hot Young Bloods, Strong Woman, and Running Man so I decided why not. Song Joong Ki can act, like wow- barely any lines at all but prefect deliverance. Park Bo Young really shined, too. Their chemistry was dead on, you can really buy into what they are selling. I also like seeing her as the spunky girl, it fits her "image", I guess haha. It was funny seeing Yoo Yeon Seok as the "villain" because i have only ever seen him as the good guy in Romantic Doctor and Eighteen and Nineteen.
Music:... I have no idea.. it never bothered me so I'll say it fit well.
Rewatch: Most likely- I'll probably skip the beginning or watch certain scenes but I would recommend this to my friends and anyone else who is still debating watching or not.
Overall (any last comments): I would honestly love a remake or something without the flashbacks or for these two to star together again..

I kinda have a change of thought now. This movie........omg!!!! This was the one I was looking for!!! It was SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD!!!! Everything was just perfect. Nothing was missing. You WONT get bored. I gave the music a 9.5 because it wasn't 'addictive' but it matched the movie well so....yea.
The plot is quite interesting. I haven't seen any dramas or movies like this before. That's probably why it made it even better. The actors were also perfect for this drama. I can't imagine anyone else replacing their spot.
The movie is very emotional. It could hit you any time. Omg! I don't think I've cried so much in 2 hours before. Like hard out crying. Anyone whose thinking about watching it......get your tissue box ready. I mean.....maybe 2 boxes if you think a box won't be enough.
Overall I would give this a 20/10 but sadly you can't. So yea. 10/10 it was.
