Directed by Park Young-hoon
starring Park Gun-Hyung as Na Yong-sae, Moon Geun Young as Jang Chae-rin
My first time watching a korean film on a big screen. What makes the film interesting to me is the fact that the premise is based on dancing itself. Of course, Moon was great as the innocent young Chae-rin who fled from China to Korea in replace of her world class 
champion dancer sister due to unforeseen circumstances. Both of them move with great ease and agility in the film (must have done great deal of practices) when they dance. Moon is definitely a more convincing actor than Park in this film, nonetheless, I do believe the chemistry between the two, if I were to compare this film to the Hollywood flick Shall We Dance, featuring Richard Gere and Jennifer Lopez, which treads on the same theme. "When you dance, you are in love with me, even though you may not be in real life..." I wonder if this is true for all dance partners out there? Do they purely move in the same rhythm and breathe the same air of passion for dancing simply because for dancing per se or it definitely needs some real love between the two to make it all real and magnificent? Whatever it may be, I do believe that the greatest dance in life is utmost magical and exhilarating only when you are able to share it with the one you truly love.
