Hiya (2016)

STORY: This is a redemption story about the older brother trying to eventually make things right with his younger brother. The first part of the movie was kind of confusing but towards the end a lot of things are revealed and explained so that it makes so much sense. By the end, the feels were there for the whole family and the two brothers. It was definitely worth the wait.

ACTING/CAST: Every one of the cast was great, and the dancing and choreography was excellent. Those boys were great.

MUSIC: Oh yeah, good music. I really like the song that they dancers sang.

REWATCH VALUE: I may, I may not.

OVERALL: It's a K-Drama, of course it's good. Confusing at first but ends great. (No BL)

Honestly, reading the synopsis I did think I would cry. Since I have a big brother myself, stories about siblings really get to my heart. And though I don't watch movies often, this one is probably the best I've seen. Sure, production wise it didn't really stand out much, but the story, and how they act their part really get to me. Hoya really did well as the little brother and maybe it's cause I'm the youngest sibling too, though our stories are different, I can easily relate to him and how he feels to his brother. As a viewer, I can objectively see everything and see both sides of the brothers' stories, and knowing that Jinho doesn't know everything and was kept in the dark, it really makes me feel so much worse for him. My head hurts I cried too much, seriously.
