a forma em que se comunica as emoções sem precisar de palavras é o que deixa tudo ainda mais bonito.
sou apaixonada por essa estética nostálgica, a cinematografia melancólica desse filme é perfeita.
é uma construção de carinho e amor tão genuíno, os silêncios e olhares sinceros transformam esse filme em uma beleza quase poética, a delicadeza do primeiro amor na juventude deixa aquela sensação de saudade de algo que talvez nunca vivemos.

A simple but impactful film
I haven't seen the original Taiwanese film, but I really loved this adaptation. It's a simple premise of a boy falling in love at first sight, but it's executed with charm and poignance. I find that stories about hearing-impaired characters can develop a special resonance from the way they make you think about communication from a different angle, and this film is no exception.It reminds me a bit of Love, Untangled or Linda, Linda, Linda as a warm, comforting film I will probably rewatch multiple times.

Excellent adaptation!!
The original "Hear me" is one of my all time faves, is one of those movies that instantly brings a smile to my face so when I saw news of it being remade I was equal parts scared and excited.I am pleasantly surprised with this adaptation, they nade very few changes to the story and they were very well done.
The scene with the parents is pretty much the same as the original and I'm so glad it was left untouched because it's so funny!
Even though I am biased, I can admit that the Korean version of Hear me is almost just as good as the original Chinese version.

A light-hearted romance and touching sibling bond
The romance started a little too fast, especially with the love at first sight concept, but I guess that is expected given that the entire plot needed to be filled in 01 hour and 49 minutes. I was a little surprised when I found out that they were playing the roles of 26-year-olds because the overall concept of the drama felt like a teenage love story, but all in all the movie was a cute and romantic movie to watch.I have to say that the acting of the three main leads was phenomenal. Hong Kyung did an amazing job playing the role of Yong Jun. The way he expressed every emotion through his expressions and his body language as the shy guy falling for a girl, at first sight, was exceptional. He effortlessly managed to bring the character of Yong Jun to life and managed to stay consistent to his personality throughout the movie.
Roh Yoon Seo as Yeo Reum was a commendable choice. With little to no words throughout the movie, she managed to convey every single one of her emotions with just her expressions. She and Kim Min Ju, had great chemistry as sisters in the movie and I loved every single scene of them together. Their scenes made me so emotional and I couldn't help but bawl my eyes out, watching the love, care and support they have for each other. Watching Yeo Reum, live just for her sister's dream, and Ga Eul working hard to achieve her dream so that her sister would be proud, was so heartwarming to watch.
As an elder sister myself, watching how Yeo Reum lived her life to support her sister and parents was very relatable. When her mom asked her to start living her life for herself, I couldn't stop my tears from falling out because those were words that many of us elder siblings needed to hear.
I did hope to see a little bit more development on Yong Jun's and Yeo Rum's careers and life but unfortunately, there wasn't really much focus given to that. I guess it was kind of expected since the movie's main focus was on the romance of the main leads, but it would have given a good closure if they had touched on that aspect.
I would give this drama a good rating because it was a really homey and cute romance drama. The cast did a really great job with their roles as well. The love between the sisters was really moving and I would recommend it to anyone looking for a light-hearted drama to watch.

Excellent
Watching thi movie is an occasion to see what the actors really can: acting. A bad written story can ruin a movie, but a good written story alone cannot make a good movie. Also the theme itselft will not make it a success. The way this movie is directed, the delicacy of each scene and the story itself gives the actors the chance to act. There is nothing of the standard boring romance drama that you can see it everywhere; here the actors can focus on expressing the feelings with they mimic and gestures, with their smile , face and body. The theme of the movie is also a good one and there is so much art and caution inside, that I forgive the few inherent inconsequences.This movie is 100% worth its watching time.

A Heartfelt Summer Tale with a Deeper Message
Hear Me: Our Summer is a beautifully crafted romance drama that effortlessly captures the essence of a sweet, breezy, and soothing summer love story. With its warm, atmospheric storytelling, the film feels like a gentle glide through the golden hues of summer, making it an easy and enjoyable watch.The two lead actors deliver outstanding performances, bringing depth and authenticity to their characters. Their chemistry is both heartwarming and genuine, making their romance feel natural and deeply engaging. The film does not rely on grand gestures or dramatic twists but instead focuses on the quiet, tender moments that make love stories truly memorable.

The film thoughtfully portrays how they are just as capable as anyone else, proving that they can contribute to society in meaningful ways rather than being seen as burdens. This underlying theme adds a layer of depth to the narrative, making it more than just a love story—it becomes a powerful statement on inclusivity and acceptance.
The cinematography beautifully complements the storytelling, with warm, sunlit visuals that enhance the film’s emotional appeal. The supporting cast also does a commendable job in bringing the world of the film to life, adding richness and authenticity to the narrative.
Overall, Hear Me: Our Summer is a heartwarming and thought-provoking watch. It seamlessly blends romance with social awareness, making it both touching and enlightening.

I should have watched it since long time ago...
I heard people around me talking about this movie, but I didn't really take any interest because I thought it was going to be a slow-paced and boring movie. But turns out this movie is ... wholesome ... I love that there is no big unnecessary drama and we have a happy ending for everyone ... if I have to describe it with words, this movie is a "healing, fresh, warmth, and sweet" story.Was this review helpful to you?

Made me realize the beauty of silence
This was beautifully produced wow...the natural sounds around them while they signed was so calming. I loved the plot, the cast, the music?? The music was really cute. It sounded like it had emotion, helping with their emotions cause it's only signed. I don't understand the low ratings for this. Maybe they felt it was slow cause it was an everyday life kind of movie, but I can't stop thinking of this!! The pool scene where she realized he could speak was so emotional. Just all of this in general was adorable. Not to mention the cast?! WOWW THEY'RE SO GOOD. The signing was so smooth and well portrayed ♡ Definitely would watch again. Hopefully I'll be able to see this movie on a streaming service soon!Was this review helpful to you?

Personal opinion
Really loved it , it was relaxing , romantic and peacefull i can watch a full 16 episodes series of this and not get bored by it .It washes away your troubles and your fatigue like it's nothing , and when you finish watching it you will see a smile on your face beacuse while you can't hear most of their worlds their voices appear in your mind because of the amazing portrayal by the cast .
I really loved the acting by the cast but Roh Yoon Seo's performance blowed my mind so does her beautifull and innocent appearance.
It was like Love me , Love my voice a chinese drama no rivarly , no break up (except a little one) , just pure and light romantic comedie
The music isn't 10 just because it's not a movie that is music has a big impact but the backgroung music the calm and romantic one was perfect for it

quietest movie ever
few minutes into the movie i was so underwhelmed and bored but as it dove deeper into the story it started getting so good. i didnt expect it to touch my heart the way it did because theres little to no dialogue at all, but the cast delivered what had to be delivered exquisitely and with so much emotion just using their hands and facial expressions and thats what makes it extra good! it exceeded my expectations! so cute and wholesome and the story is just so touching. really good movie, highly recommend!Was this review helpful to you?
A Healing Movie I Am Grateful To Watch
Hear Me: Our Summer is truly a healing kmovie. I am person who has diverse interests in all sorts of thing. But I have the strongest passion for healing dramas/movies. Other than the romance, Hear Me: Our Summer also includes the aspects and teachings of how imperfect life could be; to the struggles of our beliefs and how beautiful life can still be for individuals with disabilities.Was this review helpful to you?

Film léger sans prétention
C'est un bon film un peu comme une brise d'été, simple et agréable à regarder. Les personnages sont attachants et nous donnent le sourire parce que l'on sait que ça va bien se finir, malgré le drame de mi-séance obligatoire.Je trouve cependant dommage que l'on découvre à la fin que le personnage féminin principal n'est en fait ni sourde ni muette (alors qu'elle se dit elle-même sourde une scène plus tôt dans la piscine ?!) et que tout cela était en fait un gros malentendu. Il aurait au contraire été intéressant d'avoir ce couple bilingue qui peut déjà communiquer sans problème grâce à la langue des signes et qui n'avait dont pas besoin de ce retournement de situation.
De ce fait, j'aurais presque préféré voir le développement du couple secondaire soeur-ami pour voir justement comment ils apprennent à communiquer dans un couple bilingue.
Ici, on a l'impression que le scénariste/metteur en scéne a choisi l'option de facilité et a donc réduit de moitié l'impact de sa critique sur l'inclusion des sourds-muets dans la société en se refusant à avoir un personnage principal handicapé.
Dommage !
