Neverending Story (2012)

The story was quite different from other love stories involving terminal diseases. Instead of presenting a heartbreaking love between the two leads, it leaned to a funny and lighthearted interpretation of what it's like to die with someone you love. And it worked out well.

The cast was adorable, and the acting was well-done. I've been watching lots of Uhm Tae Woong's projects these days. I guess he must really be that good of an actor to be given such many interesting projects.

I liked the music. It's rare that I get captivated by the music from Korean movies, and this one's part of the rare ones. The music's really nice.

It doesn't have a high rewatch value although the movie's really good. I guess if you watch it over and over again, it could be somewhat tiresome.

Overall, the movie's a great mixture of a terminal disease romance plot and comedy with a pinch of hope and heartbreak.

Im a fan of both leads so this was a must see for me...

Not only did I love the main characters (cute chemistry) but I loved the supporting characters too (yay Park Ki Woong).

There really wasn't much to the story though. You just see how they meet and then how they spend their days counting down to their deaths. Its twisted but somehow the writers made their relationship and their activities seem so normal. It really is a very easy breezy watch. I feel like it was a bit too long that I started to get restless towards the end. I loved the ending, it was realistic but hopeful at the same time.
