This film was very quiet and serene. I think the snowy weather represented this film very well. When snow falls overtime, it piles up and covers everything underneath, just like the feelings of the two separated people. Through the letters, they uncover their feelings that's been piled up with snow. (The title's literal translation is 'To Yoonhee')

Even though Yoonhee was the focus of the movie, her daughter, Saebom, was a scene stealer. I found her interest for film photography is a nice element to this film! I love her attention to detail. Her mom knows everything she doesn't tell, and I think that Saebom is alike. The trip that she prepared for her mom was probably the best gift! It's a heart-warming movie. I personally love the ending, character development and the cinematography.

After seeing the comments, I just had to write a review. Did you guys watch the same movie as me? I didn't find it boring. Yes, it's like a typical Chinese action-comedy. I had a couple of laughs in this movie... so I just had to say this isn't boring. At least, in my preference. Even though the story isn't as meaningful, but I still found it fun.

Bolin's Korean was decent, but it had a Chinese accent that makes it unnatural and awkward/mismatch for his acting. He did a great job on speaking Korean. I was really glad they didn't dub his voice. Son Yejin and Shin Hyun Joon's performance were great. And I love the other two Chinese guys! They were the funniest.

Overall, the movie was enjoyable. I actually find korean-chinese production refreshing. However, It's not something I'd rewatch. We all have our preferences, but I suggest you would enjoy this movie if you would not take it seriously and technically.

In a culture where blood ties are very important, It's really touching how a genuine happiness and real family was created as a fake family. It's sad how the society defines who we call our family are. For some people, family isn't always the one you're born into. For some people, it's just as simple as sharing experiences with, accepting them as they are, and people that want them in their lives. The message of the film is just beautiful.

I watched this film as it was recommended given the similarities with Parasite. But it was different. It didn't have the thrilling and surprising impact that Parasite had. If you were looking for that, you won't find it here. In fact, the story was slow-paced, but It got me immersed in it. Both films have the right emotions that will give you a reality check. A film that not everyone will like, but definitely a great film with depth!

This was so cute! The whole show runs for a total of 39 minutes. I just thought of it as more of like an advertisement short film for a ramyeon brand, rather than a full web drama. It's a little shorter than most web dramas, but It didn't feel lacking at all! It's like a perfectly cooked ramyeon! I had a good laugh and heart-fluttering moments with this!

I watched Lee Yoo Mi through 365: Repeat the Year and thought she is quite good. She gives off that Sulli vibes when she smiles! It's my first time watching the male leads, but they're charming and their acting was unexpectedly good too. They all look like they came straight out of a webtoon!

I love how they used K-indie for the background music. Melomance and J Rabbit's music adds that extra heart-flutter!

Overall, this is a good one if you're looking for something quick and cute. :)
