Minha Garota e Eu

I'm not certain why Korean audiences are going through the "sappy love story" phase that the United States had to endure in the 1970s, but "My Girl and I" follows the same dubious steps as "Ryan's Song" and "Love Story" complete with heart-wrenching tragedy, young love, class struggles, and with the oddly Korean addition of broad comic sidekicks without which the film would be unbearable. Beautifully shot, and acted with a heavy gravitas, the script is the biggest fault in the movie, with overly-ripe dialog which becomes more earnest and overbearing as the film progresses. The music is similarly unsubtle, with thundering strings and a solo piano line increasing in volume whenever a tragic scene raises it's head. Perfect date movie for the romantic sentimentalist foreign-film enthusiast (you know who you are).

Don't know how to describe a movie like this. this kind of masterpiece don't show up before eyes everyday. i was off from watching movies last few days and almost lost my interest in watching things and suddenly this masterpiece just came to light me And after a long time i found a movie which i don't want to stop watching. i wish this movie got few hours more. this type of movies force to believe in love again and again and make them something so much bigger than life that you will start to believe you can't absorb that much love in one single lifetime

Jae-young Kwak's previous film 'Yeopgijeogin geunyeo' (aka 'My Sassy Girl') is one of my all time favourite romantic comedies. With 'Parang-juuibo' (aka 'My Girl and I') he tells an intense love story of two teenagers. This film very much reminded me of 'Love Story' but the director interprets it in his own unique and sincere way. Set against the spectacular and beautiful Korean landscape, with stunning cinematography and a lively background score, it's indeed a treat to watch. The director pays attention to detail, makes use of symbolism and tackles issues such as life, death, afterlife without derailing from the main story. Just like 'Love Story', 'Parang-juuibo' has some excellent dialogue that speak volumes with just a few words. While many have tagged the film as a sobfest, there's just so much more to this film than mere emotional manipulation and the director deserves immense credit for his honesty and authenticity in presentation. Clearly he's put a lot of heart into it. Tae-hyun Cha is more restrained here and gives a wonderfully intense performance that reflects his growth as an actor. The beautiful Hye-kyo Song too does an outstanding job with her balanced performance. The supporting cast make their presence felt. The entire cast and crew have done a superb job in making this magnificent little movie. Whether people will like it or not there is something the viewer will take away with them that will stay long after the closing credits have rolled and this is reason enough for anyone to watch a movie.

Parang-juuibo (aka "My Girl and I")is the 2005 Korean remake to the Japanese movie "Crying Out Love, In the Center of the World." Su-ho (Tae-Hyun Cha), a simple teenager, and Su-eun (Hye-Gyo Song), a pretty and popular girl, start dating. Their love is for each other seems eternal. By leaving messages to each other on the phone, and through their many times together, their love grows stronger. Until a tragic event occurs.

I thought the movie was very good. The movie is able to portray true love and happiness very well. Although it seemed to skip around a little bit, I believe you should check this movie out.

How can I describe this movie with my words? Its quite impossible for me to describe this amazing korean movie.I have watched some korean movie but this one is special for me because Its helped me to remind my school life . Oh man ! What a movie ! Hats of to the whole team. After watching this movie , I have lost my mind ! A simple love story with some great cinematography and the direction also.

It is a school life romantic drama starred by Tae-hyun Cha and Hye-kyo Song . Their chemistry was beyond my expectation. I don't wanna reveal anything about this movie , You better make some time to watch this masterpiece .

Oh ! I forgot something ! Its my first review in IMDb!
