Lately, I have developed a taste for korean movies...they are very melodramatic, very emotional, very much like hindi movies...but an underlying humor and simplicity is always there, and they have the cutest faces...also i'm watching only few selective ones, so maybe im biased...but whatever shit i won't watch in a hindi movie, i'll get all emotional about the same in a korean movie...yes!! some hypocrite I'm...

So, this ...ing movie was courtesy a dear friend Shruti, who started the trend by the way...and i don't see myself stopping anytime soon...

a movie about a dying young girl who doesn't know she's dying; about her mother trying to hide this thing from her and giving her a cheerful and normal life; about a naughty photographer nieghbour who becomes her first love and fills her short life with a million smiles...and about her deformed hand, always hidden under the cutest glove...and about the jokes of daily life, and about realizing how short life is...

though sounds tragic, but was quite light actually...Mi-sook, the actress looks like a doll, but then may be most korean actresses do...

but i loved this movie...bittersweet, romantic, and extremely well pictured...i mean, a lot of scenes have this dreamy quality to them...like when Mi-sook is looking outside window; smoking cigarette; with her headphones on....and the sketches in the end...all very beautiful...
