What are your thoughts on the ending of the film? I can't help but feel that they didn’t adequately address the significant issue surrounding the car accident and the true circumstances of what transpired. While I don’t dislike the film overall, I’m left feeling somewhat bewildered by the conclusion. It feels like there were key details that may have been overlooked or not fully explored. I wonder if I missed anything crucial that could provide more clarity on the plot's resolution. What’s your perspective on this?

By car accident, I'll take it that it's the one where it was made known that ML was the one who made the accident happened. Imo, I can't really blame the ML a hundred percent because while he didn't deliberately push the victim out of the window, the FL should have known better not to keep her eyes off the road since she's the driver. I mean, staring at a burning man falling off the building is a lot to take in but if she's really overwhelmed at the gruesome sight, she should have stopped her car. The ML felt guilty that he's somewhat responsible for her being paralyzed but tbh, they both are to blamed. And ML shouldn't have run off like that without any explanation. I feel that he's afraid that FL wouldn't forgive him over what had happened but in reality, she did. Hmm, I hope I'm answering your question correctly coz I might have misunderstood it >.< Do let me know if there's more than what I've answered :)

I agree with your perspective that both characters share some blame for the incident. While watching the scene, I had a similar thought to your previous comment: why was she taking her eyes off the road? If I were in her position, I would probably have driven faster to get away from the situation.

What troubles me is that it's unclear whether they actually discussed what happened during the incident. She was in a car accident, and he was involved in the man who burned himself. I don't think she received any answers about what truly transpired. From what I remember, she found out the details during her visit with the nun—I'm not entirely sure if she was a nun or a sister—but perhaps the nun told her everything.

I feel like the writers could have taken a different approach, allowing the female and male leads to sit down and talk about the incident. He disappeared from her life, and then suddenly he’s by the beach, where she tells him that she is his home. They leave it at that, which I found unsatisfactory.

I wish the two of them could have found some closure regarding the incident in a more meaningful way. It was uncomfortable to see him walking toward the water, as if heading for an endgame, and then she comes and saves him, leading to a romantic conclusion. In real life, I believe there would need to be some discussion about what happened, especially considering his mental health and her feelings about her parents.

Sorry for the rant! I don’t hate the movie; I was just confused by how the last 20 minutes unfolded. It seemed rushed, and the writing felt a bit messy.


PS the dog is absolutely adorable and I wanted to keep it for myself LOL

I can't quote the spoiler parts XD

Ahh~ I get what you mean about the last 20 mins. You're right about the rushed ending because alot of things aren't really explained thoroughly. It's kinda funny how FL can piece together that the burning man incident is some what connected to ML. That ML was the one who made the victim jumped out of the window because the nun only told her ML was at the location of the accident. But then again, she might have told FL the entirety of the story, just that it's not shown on screen.

I'd guess that Japanese movies tend to have "open endings" which is up to your interpretation :) I watched this title for a watch challenge and I only noticed that the "getting to know you part" is too long, imo >.<

Tehe I  too watched it for that specific reason!

While I just went on a rant explaining my thoughts about the ending. I enjoyed the film and would recommend it to someone who hasn't seen it. I have several Japanese movies on my two watchlists so I'm actually pretty excited. I also would like to comment more on this group.  I joined last year but my posts were very few.  

Oh, I forgot. I also joined the Japanese watch challenge so that will keep me accountable. Looking forward to some more discussions throughout the year. lol
