I stumbled upon the 2021 South Korean drama "My Lovely Angel" here in 2022 by random chance. I had never heard about the movie, but after reading the synopsis, then I had to sit down and watch this movie immediately.
Writers Lee Chang-Won and Kwon Sung-Mo not only put together a rather enjoyable and entertaining storyline, but they also managed to put together one of the most beautiful, heartfelt and touching storylines that I have ever seen in a film. I have to admit that I loved every moment of this movie, and was brought to tears several times throughout the course of the 100 minutes that the movie ran for.
The emotions that the storyline in "My Lovely Angel" has on the screen is just something that hits home right away and goes straight to the heart. This movie is a must-be-watched movie, regardless of liking South Korean cinema or not, because this is storytelling at its finest.
The movie does have a relatively small cast ensemble, and leading actor Jin Goo (playing Jae Shik) does a great jobs in the lead. I was not familiar with him, but he was quite good. But the real star of "My Lovely Angel" is young actress Jung Seo-Yeon (playing Eun Hye). Oh my god, her performance was so emotional, beautiful and convincing that she simply stole every scene that she was in. I was so impressed with her performance in this movie, and she really makes it believable that Eun Hye is both blind and deaf.
I cannot stretch this enough, but "My Lovely Angel", from directors Sung-Mo Kwon and Chang-Won Lee is a movie that you have to sit down and watch. Trust me, you will love the time you invest in this movie, because it is such an amazingly emotional and beautiful movie.
And believe you me, you want to keep a box of tissues within hands reach when you watch "My Lovely Angel".
There is no doubt about it, my rating of "My Lovely Angel" will land on a straight up ten out of ten stars. This is without a doubt one of the most beautiful movies I have ever seen.
