So for my birthday this year, I took a couple days off of work and booked a room at Hotel Kabuki in Japantown and just basically had a blast most of the weekend long. I'm came home during the afternoon yesterday, which was probably a good thing 'cause I swear I spent like $1000 in shopping alone ^_^;;;; Yeah...
Anyway, I bought this movie with Lee Jun Ki and Miyazaki Aoi in it called Virgin Snow and it's a very sweet love story. I must admit, I bought it 'cause Lee Jun Ki was in it and I really do like him in terms of eye candy (and acting of course lol).
The movie is about this Korean boy, Kim Min, who goes to live in Kyoto with his father who is a pottery-maker and meets a kind Japanese girl, Nanae, and falls in love with her at first sight. After he accidentally ruins her paint set and buys her a new one with money he earned at a part-time job, their relationship blossoms. Despite the language barriers, the two fall deeply in love and make a promise that someday when Min is able to create a porcelain piece, Nanae will paint on it. Min studies hard at Japanese and pottery-making while Nanae studies Korean and painting so the two will meet halfway. They later make a second promise to have a date on the first snow fall, however, Nanae disappears soon after and none of her classmates know what happen to her. Brokenhearted, Min returns to Seoul, and then two years pass...
At first, I thought Nanae might die or something before I watched this movie 'cause all those little teaser blurbs made it sound like she was going to die from disease or something, but it turned out to be completely different after I watched it so I was pretty satisfied that it wasn't one of those typical tearjerkers where someone dies from sickness. Frankly, though I usually like those types of drama, they're really getting old and I'd like to not watch a drama where someone dies again. So yeah, no one dies, thank god.
