Son Ye Jin movie marathon

So, when my short 1 week break started, I started watching Pretty Noona Who Buys Me Food (for Son Ye Jin & PD Ahn Pan Seok), which led me down the rabbit hole of watching all the SYJ movies I haven't watched so far. I've watched Alone In Love, and it kinda ripped my heart out, so I know she's great and have always loved that she has both the beauty and the acting chops, but I just haven't been keeping up with her activities these few years when she focused on movies. But luckily this means I have material to watch while waiting for new Noona eps haha.

I've watched The Classic and A Moment To Remember before, and decided to watch AMTR again just to bask in my tears LOL. These two are classics that most k-movie fans will probably have watched before so I don't need to add more, except that she was LUMINOUS.

Korean Film Recommendations (Part 1)

Over the holidays, I managed to watch 5 Korean movies - Big Match, The Attorney, A Girl At My Door, Han Gong Ju and Roaring Currents.

I watched Big Match because it's BoA's film debut! About Choi Ik Ho (Lee Jung Jae) who is dragged into playing a 'game' (mostly doing seemingly impossible tasks) to save his brother. It was a lot of fun watching the action scenes but I thought the story was super messy.

The Attorney is set in the 80s and stars Song Kang Ho as a lawyer who helps to defend a bunch of university students, including Im Si Wan, against accusations of being communist. The first half was all set up but the second half moved into the court room and that is when the drama hooked me in. Worth watching, but it was the latter 3 movies I watched that I really loved.
