Summer Snow (2015)

Seize the chance before fate closes the door (=^ェ^=)

I watched a sad American film and as usual went to review it.
Suddenly this film appeared before me and I loved its story especially since it contains three interconnected narratives. After that, my search began to find it.... I struggled a bit to find it especially in good quality because it was released 10 years ago.
And truly I don't regret watching it; it's definitely worth watching...
I'm sure everyone has noticed that Korean films in recent years lack dramatic impact, and I was truly longing for a film that would bring out all my emotions and tears...
This film begins with hope, followed by longing, pain, sadness, and loss, and ends with hope. I loved the three stories and how there was an indirect connection between their feelings and their experiences...
The film doesn’t rely on grand twists or heavy dialogue; instead, it captures emotion through silence, glances, and beautifully framed shots.
The director’s choice to intertwine three parallel stories was not just a narrative decision, but a reflection of how human emotions—hope, loss, and love—intersect in real life.
Even the pacing feels deliberate: slow enough to make you breathe every emotion, yet steady enough to keep you connected to each character’s journey.
The music, subtle and melancholic, becomes a silent narrator that carries the soul of the story when words are no longer enough.
And the acting was truly excellent, thanks to the outstanding cast and the perfect casting for each role. I highly recommend watching it; you won't even notice the time passing until you find yourself at the end, your eyes swollen from crying. I truly felt warmth and longing for everyone I love and everyone I've lost and a message the film is beautiful :《Don't be ashamed of love, for the worst regret is realizing too late that you remained silent when speaking was life》..
