I honestly hope they make a longer version of this movie bec the leads need more time together!!!!!
I have a soft spot for plots like this where it involves nostalgic moments about your first love, friends, family, youth. I'm not sure why but maybe because my first love was a really big factor of how I became the person I am today.
Overall I really loved it, I enjoyed the storyline. It was really cute. Casting was on point. Honestly, I loved the chemistry between the FL and the ML. The only thing that bothered me throughout the movie was the pacing. It was really too fast. I think it would've helped if the movie was 40-60 min longer (I mean come on a 3 hour duration is not something new for a korean movie). Imagine with that amount of time you can build up your characters better. Thus, making the foundations of the relationship of the characters better, more relatable, and their actions more justifiable.
Frankly speaking because of the pacing, there is a part of me that can't help but think that it was just a high school fling that was left open ended for a quite some time. I know there are some movies that when you make it longer it ruins the show but I believe this is not one of it. I really do wish that they make a longer version of this one. Maybe an 8 or 12 episode drama? I don't know. I just know that if they do I will definitely watch it and I know for sure that adding more screen time to this will definitely help enhance the story line.
There were also some questions that were left unanswered like :
what happened to Bada why did he got into an accident?
-Was that scene really significant? I honestly think no because even if they met that night, and they had an additional few hours -together, I think their last moment together would've still made the hearts of the audience break
- What happened to Baek Hyun Jin? I find it really impossible that he did not know woonho passed away
-how the heck did woonho die all of a sudden?
But it an all honesty, what made my heart break was the last part when Joseph and the FL were talking. It made me think of my late boyfriend, my first love, who passed away when he was 17. At some point, it felt like Joseph was talking to me and honestly I would've said the something "how can I forget *****?". Just thinking about those lines, really brings tears in my eyes which is why this movie will always have a special place in my heart.
