Windstruck

You gotta watch this Korean romantic flick. Windstruck or Yeochinso. It stars our Sassy Girl, South Korea's 'It girl' Jeon Ji-hyun.

It still had the quirkiness of Sassy Girl -- the slapping and kicking and cursing. Ji-hyun still got that 'girl power' attitude. Funny/Romantic movie but would make you weepy in the end. Great OST. It had 'Knocking on Heaven's Door' and some 60s songs all throughout. ;-) And the cinematography... Korean Director Kwak was really very good at it.

I fell for Ji-hyun's love interest, Jang Hyuk. He acted so real and sincere and his lines... he delivered them perfectly. Guys like him, are they for real? I cried while watching this flick (to think that I dont usually cry when watching flicks like this). The movie may not get 10 stars from film critiques but to a typical 23-year-old like me who only needs a flick that will totally move her and entertain her, Windstruck is 10 stars.

Do you have any recommended movies for me? I would really love to watch them. ;-)
