If not for the acting, this movie would be much lower in the totem pole. What a fantastic cast of actors from top to bottom. The overall mood and setting is also brilliant. However, the story just didn't hit my tear nodes. A relationship that never really made sense since the very beginning coupled with some very questionable decision making ends up with an even more confusing ending that simply saddles the female lead with a bunch of responsibilities. Outside of a few dialogues, their relationship is also not very well illustrated. The dialogue is full of shades of Korean soap drama that's tried and tested, and this is simply one of the million.
