Movie of the day : Sad movie (Korean 2005)

Watched it with a girl friend on Sat night and we both cried our eyes out. There are 4 relationships in the movie: 2 couples, a girl falling in love and a mother & child. It started off like a cute, breezy Korean love stories so that to unexpected viewers like me, we almost forgot about the title (or actually thinking it's just a misleading title, like that of my sassy girl) and believed for a while that this is a movie about love, not sadness. Each pair had already have a conflict in the relationship and each had worked hard on it in the way that we, without knowing, already give them our full supports. I especially like the character of this girl who couldn't speak and has a burnt scar on her cheek. She worked as a mascot in amusement park so she got to wear the costume and didn't need to speak all day long. She fell in love with this artist who, waiting for his departure to go study abroad, came to draw in the park everyday (oh, isn't he the cutest boy in the whole wide world?) and they developed a silent bond while the boy never got to see her face nor hear her voice. It's very sweet that I wished they would be together after the girl revealed her face and her handicapped self to him at the end. But of course it's a sad movie, when it came to the end of this relationship, it broke my heart. The same happened each time the other relationships broke down one by one.

On a totally different note, I couldn't help but noticing all Korean actors and actresses possess such perfect skin! Looked like the girls didn't wear any make up at all and yet they looked perfectly radiant. Darn...the only chance I could ever look like that is to pray for it in the next life!
