Bawled my eyes out at the ending. Must be difficult to be alive when all your friends fell. Those students would be in their late 80s and 90s now. Beautiful movie.
I watched this because of JES. My first show of him was WYEL, and he's wonderful there. He's attractive here as a villian too. I'm running a marathon of his dramas now lol.
JES is really attractive and his body *thumbs up*. He has kind features and doesn't give off a bad boy vibe though, which i think CJW is probabky suppose to have. But he definitely carries himself well.
Easy watch, doesn't require a lot of brain power. At the same time its engaging enough that you dont feel bored. 30 eps might be too long though, there are parts that feels dragged on.
Hi! I just did a search at Viu.... It seems HBO Asia has first rights for release, it would only be available…
Hey Becky, no sorry, i dropped it. Nothing to do with the drama itself, its not having the subtiles so its less enjoyable. Maybe i'll pick it up another time. I'm watching kdrama "deep rooted tree" currently. Its quite engaging.
I've been watching a bunch of war movies lately, and this one is at a totally different level. It made me question a lot of things, like what exactly is honor and loyalty, what does it mean to be cowardly. The fine line between courageous and stupidity. Human. I've only heard about the wars from my grandparents, so I'm aware that I won't be able to truly understand what veterans had gone through. But I'm really glad that there are war movies out there to allow viewers to experience a 'hologram' of such emotions and events, even though they may not historically accurate. Every year our school invites war veterans to paticipate in our rememberance assemblies. The last one I had before covid, only 1 veteran came, in a wheelchair. Most of the veterans have already passed away, or they are too old to attend. Its very easy for us younger generations to forget them. I dont know if there're poems in korea dedicated to remember the war heros. We have a few here. This movie resonates "lest we forget", at least to me.
Can You tell me the ending??FL marries another guy??
If I remember corectly, the Kmovie did not show the FL committing suicide, but the ending sort of seemed to be that. One reason for the marriage is to let the FL show the ML she'll be ok and happy even after he dies. But i believe it's deeper than just using the SML for their own selfish satisfactions. This SML understands and celebrates their love. Yes, he's probably saddened by his position, but his appreciation and his enlightment by being a part of this story overshadows his position. At least thats my take on it. =)

Hm. It's not a fake marriage as in a contract marriage like some other dramas. The love and respect between all the 3 leads are real, not fake. The SML knows that the the ML is the FLS's true love and true 'husband', not him. And his love for the FL, and his respects for the love between the between the ML and FL, was no less than the love between the ML and FL. To the point that when the FL died, he placed the FL-ML's photo and their memorabilia in her columbarium, instead of himself. I think not many people can show such level of gentleman behavior at all. At the same time, both the ML and FL geniuenly trusted in the SML to be the FL'S husband and willingly married her to him . Its definitly not "fake". All the love and respect between the 3 leads are sincere and real. But is it a heartbreaking story? Yes it is. I bawled and bawled.

Yes ML dies, FL marries SML as ML planned. Just to elaborate a bit, the ML set up, discreetly, the FL to marry SML because he knew she cannot live on her own. However, the FL actually also saw through ML's plan and his reason for doing it, so she went along without letting ML know that she knew. That's why she married SML.
The movie was quite light hearted until the ending. I cried SO MUCH in the last part. Its a great bromance, it reminded of another great NSKorea bromance 'Steel Rain' The scene with the fireflies was breath taking..
I bawled and bawled. My heart broke when he was crying painfully in one room while his family was enjoying in the other room. Although his children had no understanding of him, their father, he still considered he had a good life because he protected them. He also kept his promise to his father and looked after his mother and siblings on his behalf, and found his lost sister in the end. It's deeply beautiful, his reason for not selling the shop. He was waiting for his father, the shop was the place they were suppose to meet. It's saddening that his wife and his children could not see that. My eyes are all puffy from crying but its 100% worth it.
I love historic genre. This movie shows how cruel histories can be without being too violent and extreme. The cast's actings were superb. SYJ is always my favourite. Broke my heart when she lied on the station floor "laughing", I pretty much cried till the end after that scene.
