One of those films where the music and the film work together in heartbreaking harmony

Very serene film about terminal ill man that tries to keep living his life as usual, has to come to grip with the fact he's dying, while simultaneous falling in love in his last month. Han Suk-kyu and Shim Eun-ha both do a tremendous job in showing with little details, f.e. small quick smiles, that they are in love with each other. Meanwhile Han Suk-kyu also succeeds in showing in flashes the anger and sadness between his calm and friendly mask.

It's quite cute, but rather forgettable. Nothing much happens, but that's not unpleasant

I love films that care more about the small details of life than telling big stories, and I loved this one.
