The film opens with Ji-hae (Ye-jin Son) stumbling across her mother's old lover letters. As she loses herself in her mother's past, she finds the present mirroring it. Ji-hae finds herself helplessly attracted to her friend's boyfriend Sang-min (In-seong Jo). Her mother's first love was also in a similar predicament involving his best friend. The director, Jae-young Kwak, effortlessly flits between the past and present in this typical melodramatic South Korean love story. If only he had the good sense to end it sooner it would have ended up being a cut above the rest.Rating: * *
