A charming movie with small, meaningful moments

This is not a happy movie, however I often found myself smiling at the screen. There is something different about the atmosphere, about the music, the cinematography that really captivates you.

The highlight for me is the ML (Na Kou Chong, not Ted), he's a rain of sunshine, he's someone who brings the spark of magic that keeps this movie alive. One of the very few characters I completely rooted for from start to finish, and people like him really make the world a better place.

I gave the story an 8 - while it created and weaved so many small moments, towards the end everything became a bit fast-forwarded, forced and confusing. I feel like at points we were presented with the facts, the results rather than processes. I personally dislike how much the story shifted towards Ted in the later stages of the movie, I felt it was completely unecessary. Ted should have been left as the starting point of the plot, not used "as catalyst" in order to progress towards the end.

It might look that the small stories contained in the plot don't have much importance in the big picture. However, they show us how much happiness we can bring to people through our actions. Each of them brings a lesson, and their meaning is for us to decide.
