Hello Schoolgirl (2008)
Directed by Ryu Jeong-ha
Starring Yoo Ji-tae, Lee Yeon-hee, Chae Jung-an and Kang-in
Heart warming visuals that almost feel right at home, familiar settings, interesting characters, fascinating pairing of individuals, but most of all, a non-chalant way of revealing the story and the subtlety of the love between these couples which make the film unbelievably easy to watch. It felt like sitting by the window in a lazy Sunday afternoon reading your favourite book, listening to music in your ears, over a cup of warm milo, bathing in the tenderness of the sun, while tasting every bit of the pages that fill the air with a sense of light comedy and grounded sense of dreamy reality, it is that soothingly refreshing. I love how the issue of age differences are being dealth with, yet in such great softness of it all that it feels relaxing all together. If ever there is a song to go with the feeling of watching this film, it would be the voices of Colbie Caillat, against the gushing of the wind, by the serenity of the blue slightly wavy blanket of ocean. Sandals kicked back, it is truly a rewarding experience.
