Lou Aveline Jan 18 2020 7:28 pm I just watched this movie because I really like Jung jae won as a rapper and I wanted to see his actor side and boy was I happily surprised, this man is so talented (also how does he look so fucking young ??) I really feel like this movie does not have a main stream purpose (maybe I’m wrong ??‍♀️) but yeah it really reflect real life situation and it was really sad and touching, the end was so rough I balled my eyes out. However I have two regret, it’s that the movie is too short and the second is that I didn’t fully understood the purpose of the new student like is he and angel or something like that ?

(Sorry if what I said didn’t made sense English is not my first language ?)

LESLEY HAWLEY Nov 28 2019 6:43 pm SPOILER AHEAD~~~

He died walking with the new student. The end was his wish and showed closure for him.

Ivette Nov 17 2019 5:06 pm SPOILERS! I love it , I really understood the meaning behind it. He wanted to have a good goodbye without feeling sad, he didn’t tell his friends because he knew that they would feel bad for him and act different around him. When he finally told them they went crazy and said that he was being selfish but they didn’t considered how he felt. They started regretting everything that they did to him but then thought that it was for the better so they wouldn’t have ended up hurt. They were only thinking about themselves (that’s why the friend ended their friendship and the girl rejected him ). And it’s crazy because it actually happens in real life, when it’s time to let someone go or be there for them we always think of ourselves first and regret when they’re gone. The other dude appear out of no where and I think he knew what was going on so he tried to like comfort the mc and the friends. The point is that we should always appreciate the present and think about others before it’s too late, you never know how the other person feels so it’s better to be there for them instead of being selfish.

Katarin Nov 07 2019 3:19 pm I liked the movie. I've been waiting for this one. Not sure if the film is supposed to be maindie /mainstream independent/ but the long scenes with conversations and silence have the indie vibe to it. Male lead was very expressive. I would love to see him in more serious roles.

I do think the ending was necessary before he died. She liked him. But sometimes liking someone isn't enough. It seemed selfish to turn her back on him. But it looks like it'll take a toll on her more if she had stayed and watch him leave her one day.

Fierrie Oct 02 2019 6:49 am I think it has something to do with cultural differences? I mean, if you're not a korean then you will not understand that it's their norm? I don't know actually I'm not a korean btw and I didn't actually understand a thing. Hahaha.

- spoilers**

The movie consists dialogs/conversations of a terminally ill MC with his friends. And also, it has some random transfer student who ramdomly tells the MC what he doesn't know.

I thought I could feel anything about the MC since he's terminally ill or dying but no. Not at all. The conversations feel empty and I don't really know where the story will take me.

Let's put the blame on the writer. Hahaha. I adore the cinematography and the actors.

Overall, if you like any cast in this movie, you will like it since there's an ample amount of exposure. Hahahaha

TATA Sep 16 2019 4:31 pm what was this movie? It was really sad on top of that ending was abrupt and some scenes were so much long. The scenes between the leads were hardly any. Although the lead Actor was really good but the movie was very disappointing.
