Cha, Tae-Hyun --- Gyun Woo
 My Sassy Girl seems to do all the things right that most bland and predictable romantic comedies do wrong. It tells a touching, believable love story - both funny and enjoyable - that is complimented by carefully contstructed visual imagery and noteworthy acting that stretches from hilarious to endearing. The movie is broken up into two halves (and an overtime?!). The first half begins with us being introduced to Gyeon-Woo, a hopeless college student, lacking motivation in his academic ventures and lacking direction for his future. In the meantime, he just enjoys hanging out with the guys, drinking Soju and chasing after girls that are "his type". Everything is going smoothly, until one night he spots a young drunk girl in the subway station, teetering on the edge of the tracks. Noticing a fast-approaching train, he grabs her just as she's about to go over the edge and saves her. On the subsequent train ride, she causes a scene then passes out. Gyeon-Woo is mistaken for her boyfriend and, as a result, he feels obligated to take care of her. So begins their rocky relationship. However, he's about to get more than he bargained for getting involved with her. Because while this girl may look pretty, a girl needs to act pretty, too. And this girl is far from that. Yet no matter how many embarrassing situations she puts him in or how loud and domineering she is towards him, Gyeon-Woo puts up with it all because he's intrigued by her. He's able to see inside her, behind the smokescreen, and notices a vulnerability - an inner sorrow, an actual heart - and thinks maybe he can help to heal her.  In the second half of the movie, we still get to see Gyeon-Woo beat up and put through the ringer with the girl (we never are given her name), but not as much, as traces of her soft spirit begin to come out and make themselves more apparent. After awhile, it becomes clear that both have developed feelings for each other. However, the girl has some issues from her past that need to be worked out before she can move on with him. Plus, her mother tells the girl she's not aloud to see Gyeon-Woo anymore. That's how they break up and that's how we are sent into...Overtime!  Before Gyeon-Woo and the girl break up, they decide to write each other letters that express their true feelings for one another and place them in a time capsule, burying it and planning to come back and meet at the place two years later to open the capsule and see if their fate has changed at all. It sounds really cheesy, but it's really not as bad as it sounds. Normally, this sort of stuff would find me totally phasing out, probably falling asleep. But unlike most other romantic comedies, which skip past an important step and insult you by forcing you to put up with hoky stuff from the onset of the story before characters have been developed, My Sassy Girl waits until you're attached to the characters and genuinely care what happens to them before it gets all emotional and idyllic. And that makes a BIG difference.  Cha Tae-Hyun puts in a solid performance as Gyeon-Woo. Of course, playing the girl's punching bag probably isn't too demanding of a role, but nonetheless his facial expressions are completely hilarious throughout and when the movie gets serious he does a good enough job holding his own. Jun Ji-hyun, playing the girl, however, deserves most of the credit here. From when we first meet her in the subway station, all drunk and abrasive, to when we see her begin to soften up and expose that vulnerability, Ji-hyun showed she was more than capable of pulling off that sort of wide dramatic range convincingly. Without it, this movie probably wouldn't be as strong as it was. And I'll bet the American remake of this film (the deal's already been made) will suffer for that exact reason.  I keep asking myself how in the world I stuck with a romantic comedy for over 2 hours without getting put off by cheesiness, which though it is scarce is certainly not completely absent from My Sassy Girl. I guess it's just balanced out with more entertaining and believable material than fluff. Plus, great performances from the leads. The story was full of unexpected surprises and comical situations. The laughs were not forced, meaning the humor was of much more of a realistic, that-could-have-actually-happened nature. Also, I feel like I came away with something from it. Like Amelie, this is a movie that will remind you to take advantage of life's little accidents and small pleasures.  All in all, My Sassy Girl was a very enjoyable movie, even for someone who usually balks at romantic comedies. I wish there were more of them that pushed the boundaries of that genre like this one did. ThankIn..You... Su<>neal...Rai |
My..Sassy..girl....
I'm not normally much of a fan of movies of this nature. In fact, It's safe to say I really abhor most of them. It's hard to pinpoint exactly why I'm so shut off by them without carelessly throwing out a cliched excuse. But here comes a movie out of South Korea that will help me explain my feelings. It doesn't do that by illustrating how bad these films are. On the contrary, it gives me some hope for this overworked and exhausted genre we call "the romantic comedy".

.....................LOVE VS SEx................ Love and sex are NOT the same thing. Love is an emotion or a feeling. There is no one definition of love because the word "love" can mean many different things to many different people. Sex, on the other hand, is a biological event. Even though there are different kinds of sex, most sexual acts have certain things in common. Sex may or may not include penetration
Ways To Express Love Without Sex These ways include everything from kissing and hugging to touching and petting each other. Just remember that if you're not careful these activities can lead to sex. Plan beforehand just how far you want to go, and stick to your limits. It can be difficult to say NO and mean it when things get hot and heavy. Once you loose control over your sexual desires you cannot escape from having sex. So it is always better to have limits before it is too late.
