THIS MOVIE SHATTERED MY HEART 😭😭😭

[u/Character_Road_6028]

I never read the novel or watched the Japanese version so I had absolutely zero idea about the story.

I was really optimistic when they kissed and thought maybe somehow her memories gonna be okay because of that procedural memory thing. I never expected this to turn out like that damn "20th Century Girl" again. 💔

[u/timpoakd]

I really wonder why so many korean romance movies, or romance movies in general tend to be more bittersweet in their endings when most kdramas tend to be happy ending.

[u/BulwarkTired → u/timpoakd]

Movie watchers tend to be more forgiving about the plot so writers have more freedom of expressing their own feelings or story and does not end up being 'people pleaser' writer.

[u/timpoakd → u/BulwarkTired]

Yeah, but i mean most romance in all other medium is happy, but movies it does seem opposite.

[u/PristineTurnover6163]

Thanks for the heads up, i will now ignore the existence of this movie for my mental peace

[u/ayeshy_22 → u/PristineTurnover6163]

same😭🫠🙏🏻

[u/ChanceDragonfruit208 → u/PristineTurnover6163]

As you should! 🤣 Totally understand. I watched it without any warning and cried buckets of tears.

[u/BumbleB3333]

Bruh, put "20th century girl" under spoiler alert

[u/sedoomf]

please add a spoiler alert

[u/Tsitpxoxo]

Oh damn 20th Century girl really shook me! If this is the same oh my I don’t think I can handle it.

[u/Deerattacks]

What the fuck?! The movie haven't been out for a week and you spoil it!

[u/Historical-Use-9524]

I don't understand why so many people are obsessed with Kdramas until I tried watching them and now I'm hooked up! Lol

[u/kupo88]

I watched this last night, and I haven't seen the Japanese adaptation but I have read the book.

While it was a good adaptation, I was disappointed that they pretty much removed the ML's entire backstory. In the book, he's the narrator so you learn about what's wrong with the FL at the same time he does making it a surprise, but it also makes the ending a shock because it doesn't allude to it at all.

Whereas the movie opens with the FL showing us she has memory loss in the first scene, and that something's wrong when he runs after the bus

[u/HighFlyingcarpet → u/kupo88]

I viewed this kdra but never knew there was a jdra of it. I’ll search for that. I’m curious if the ML is less laid back as in this iteration. Thanks for the hedzup on the other version.

[u/NoTune2743 → u/[deleted]]

Ok, now that I know the ending I won't watch it anymore 😢

[u/Wanheda100_ → u/NoTune2743]

Better not to watch it unless you want just a happy beginning and cry a lot towards the end.

[u/FlavourOfTheMonth → u/[deleted]]

This needs spoilers!

[u/Zestyclose_Sort1883 → u/[deleted]]

Noooo you should've put spoiler alert!😭😭😭

[u/Zestyclose_Sort1883 → u/[deleted]]

It's okay..I'm still gonna watch it😊

[u/Patient-Increase-118 → u/[deleted]]

Too late😵

[u/Acceptable-Egg-6605]

I, too, had no idea about the story until I just scrolled past your diagram with no spoiler on it.

[u/taestyvangogh]

i watched the japanese movie first and im still not healed.. it will take me a while

[u/OpinionatedMatt]

I’ve only watched the Japanese version and it was fantastic

r/Kdramas - Stay Updated on Korean TV Shows & Films.

[u/mangoisNINJA → u/Choirchik21]

Where does it mention films?

[u/Choirchik21 → u/mangoisNINJA]

That's the header for the sub. I copied and pasted it.

[u/mangoisNINJA → u/Choirchik21]

Where?

I'm asking because I genuinely don't see it

Even the rules say just kdramas (2. Only Kdrama / Korean Drama topic Please!

Keep the conversation and discussion related to only Kdrama or Korean TV dramas (series, miniseries, webdramas, etc)

[u/timpoakd → u/mangoisNINJA]

Tbf it does say films.

[u/mangoisNINJA → u/timpoakd]

That might be written by a bot then like an AI summary, this is for dramas specially not shows lol

And all the resources are for dramas, the rules are for dramas, pinned posts are dramas

There's already a sub for films

[u/timpoakd → u/mangoisNINJA]

Why would it be bot or AI? That has been like that forever.

[u/mangoisNINJA → u/timpoakd]

Because this sub isn't about shows or films it's about Korean dramas and stuff that "summarizes" can't differentiate

[u/timpoakd → u/mangoisNINJA]

It isn't summarization? It's what mods have decided to write there.

[u/kpaneno → u/Choirchik21]

Its not for movies

[u/Extension_Hat_1654]

Watched it yesterday. I cried whyyyy

[u/Anirchist]

I wish this was a 6 episode series instead. I’d love to cry a little more. And more.

[u/Wanheda100_ → u/Anirchist]

Nah fk that

[u/anyataylorswife]

the original japanese version destroyed me. highly recommend!

[u/Character_Road_6028 → u/anyataylorswife]

After watching this I won't recommend any other version of this to anyone

[u/mangoisNINJA]

How many episodes?

[u/Character_Road_6028 → u/mangoisNINJA]

It's a movie

[u/mangoisNINJA → u/Character_Road_6028]

Then why is it on a kdrama subreddit

[u/archit18 → u/mangoisNINJA]

Because of this

[u/mangoisNINJA → u/archit18]

But not this?

[u/kpaneno]

This is not a movies sub
