Soulmate

Movie is awesome. The story is so real, so deep, that it makes you to wipe out a tear or a few. Great movie about real friendship, deep and meaningful life. It is full of beautiful moments and dissapointments. Its about real emotions, like friendship, love, anger, dedication and lots other. Kim Da Mi was on fire - so good acting. She becomes one of my favorite asian actresses.

Movie is slow paced, step by step leading you till the peak, which is real emotional bomb, exploding your mind within a few astonishing moments. Playfull, emotional, sometimes sad. Some heroe's actions were questionable, but overall - movie is a great choice 👍

Two friends totally opposite to each other living their dreams differently (actually one is living her parents' dream and the other one is living her friend's dream). The way they depict their characters is just amazing. Freedom is just another word for nothing to lose, that literally hits hard. At the end they live the life totally opposite they lived before. (Spoiler: And the baby is a blessings for her. It gave her the responsibility to settle down.) There's nothing wrong in either living a carefree life or living a settled life. Every life is beautiful till you enjoy it.

The movie is great. The way they protray every single character is just marvelous. The rise and transition of emotion gives me pure joy. It's simple and complex at the same time. It feels like Schrodinger's smiley :): I am happy and sad at the same time.

Why I watch this movie? Well, in my college days, everyone named our duo as SOULMATE (me and my friend-roommate). This is the reason I started watching this movie. We used to share every single moments of our life. We laugh, we cry, we study, we try, we travel altogether. At our brightest moment, we were together. (Well, I'm straight so don't mean it otherwise.) Now we don't talk much, but maybe we still know we'll be there for each other if we need or maybe I'm delusional, ha ha ha.

I rewatched the Chinese version right after finishing this one. In my opinion, this version features more stunning visuals and feels lighter and easier to digest. On the other hand, the Chinese version comes across as more mature, with a darker and more tragic tone. The Chinese version also has a better-composed ending and delivers a more cohesive narrative.

The Chinese version can enhance the viewing experience even after watching this one, as it includes more dialogue and provides additional explanations on how certain actions were carried out.

Character-wise, Miso feels more natural, while Anshen has a childlike selfish vibe. Haeun appears sweeter, whereas July is more dynamic, which helps fill the gaps in the storyline.

The soulmates in the title Ahn Mi-so (Kim Da-mi) and Go Ha-eun(Jeon So-nee) who meet at the age of eleven and immediately hit it off. One is outgoing and brash and the other thoughtful and reserved but together they bring each other comfort and strength. All is going well until a boy is added to the mix and they become estranged. The movie follows their lives for sixteen years and no matter how far they drift apart they each have a constant longing for the comfort they have in each others company. It is a very well acted movie and the pacing is slow and thoughtful and draws you into the everlasting friendship of the two leads even though at times it seems broken.

This movies is based off a book and also there's a Chinese version (original) of this movie released on 2016. Kim Da-Mi is one of my favorite actress despite her excellent performance in every role she does. There's something about her expression that feels so real and connectes so well. The key highlights of this movie is the story and camera play, you will feel the old vibe of Jeju island.

Two best friends very opposite of their personalities becoming really close to each other and doing so the bond they form character they build and a world their create within. We never actually released how impactful someone's presence in our life.
