As a teenager Ji-hyun Jun somehow (it's never explained) becomes pen pals with a soldier. He comes to visit her, but since she lied and said she was a older woman she chickens out. The correspondence stops.Years later she's 20 and the man has moved to her town. He opens a bird store and by chance his favorite pigeon gets loose and lands on Ji-hyun's window. She doesn't know it belongs to him and slips a message in the pigeon's message holder and lets it go. It flies back to him. That is the start of their second relationship and you would think that might tell these fuckers they were meant to be together, but instead the movie just goes on and on without either one putting two and two together and hooking up. It was very frustrating.
Another thing I found irritating was the lack of close-ups on Ji-hyun Jun. Yea, she might not be a star yet, but she's the lead in the film, so you'd think the director would fucking put two and two together himself and get some fucking close-ups! Grrrr.
Nice movie, but it left a lot to be desired. Worth watching if you like romantic movies, but don't expect too much.
