drinkme Dec 07 2019 2:46 am such a good heartwarming movie :)))) will make u laugh n cry. recommended !!

MinByeol Nov 03 2019 3:09 am This movie is an inspiring and heartwarming movie about a slow father who bonds with his sick daughter. I won’t say much as it is 100% worth the watch. It’s inspiring, lovely, and beautiful as a movie and it inspires me to be a donor because it can change a life. It really draws you in the moment you see the dynamics between Mr Lee and Saet Byeol. At the moment, there are no English subtitles for this movie but worth a watch once it is subbed, (but if you are learning Korean or really can’t wait for subs like me its worth it ❤️).

Bil Oct 25 2019 7:52 am Ayee Mr lee~ ?? This movie really makes me laugh to cry to laugh again then cry again and smile. Recommend for those who want to see the different roles of Mr Cha. Daebak!
