I needed a short breather after finishing a drama, and also wanted to watch something a bit more realistic / serious than the run of the mill silliness (which I am a huge fan of). This actually managed to achieve the perfect balance between the two.
I'd only seen So Ji Sub in Master's Sun before, and though certainly a beautiful man and a wonderful actor, he didn't really strike a chord with me in that drama. Here, though, he hit the feels in the center. Wonderful, subtle acting - it's a true art to playing a quiet, subdued character I think and really *act*, not just not-talk. He accomplishes this wonderfully here. The main female character was lovely as well, for me she especially shined in the last quarter of the movie. Their relationship was beautifully portrayed - with nuance, the obligatory sweetness, but also a realism I'm not used to seeing in K-dramas normally. They both behaved like adults, though true to their characters.
Although the plot was predictable, it didn't detract from my enjoyment one bit. Will definitely re-watch it in the (possibly near) future.
