CUTE! HEARTWARMING! But nothing new...

I was bored because recently I haven't found any good romance K-drama lately and I found this movie... IT WAS WORTH MY TIME! I'm a sucker for both teeth and heart-wrenching drama. This one... served both. You got a sweet start and a bitter-sweet ending a classic K-drama formula!

The build-up of the story was really good. I enjoyed every interaction between the leads, the friendship between the characters, the setting that felt so nostalgic, and especially the start of their romance. I was enjoying the time when both leads were falling in love, kinda expected them to give more than shown in the movie. However, the twist came (kinda predictable) and everything started to fall apart. Up to the twist, everything was still well-written.

(SPOILER and rants AHEAD!!!)

The fight between Bo-ra and Yeon-do also didn't last long which was great. I always hate misunderstandings between friends, but they cleared everything quickly, and even we got what we wanted! The confession between the leads!

The ending was the one that made everything seems like a joke... GOD I hate it when they gave two happy people no happy ending, it didn't feel fair. I still cried though. But Wonhoo's death just didn't make any sense, they didn't even bother to explain why he died... He just *poof* disappeared from the story, which ruined everything that made the movie good!

and I wished Wonhoo's letter was the one that his brother sent to Bo-ra... it conveyed such great feelings rather than the movie she watched at the end.
