topuraihan Don't know how to describe a movie like this. this kind of masterpiece don't show up before eyes everyday. i was off from watching movies last few days and almost lost my interest in watching things and suddenly this masterpiece just came to light me And after a long time i found a movie which i don't want to stop watching. i wish this movie got few hours more. this type of movies force to believe in love again and again and make them something so much bigger than life that you will start to believe you can't absorb that much love in one single lifetime

Desertman84 My Girl and I is a romantic film that involves My Sassy Girl star,Cha Tae Hyun. It is a story about classmates who never fulfilled their dreams of being a couple and living together happily ever after. Just like most Korean movies, this movie ended up in a tragedy. The couple were never able to overcome the obstacles presented to them in the story including death and illness. This turned out to be an your typical Korean love story. The acting of the cast was not exemplary with the exception of Cha Tae Hyun,who was able to gain the sympathy of the viewer with his role portrayal. Song Hye-kyo is very pretty but was never up to par with her leading man as far as acting is concerned. (Paging Gianna Jun/Jun Ji-Hyun? LOL ) Aside from that, the story became predictable and does not generate interest in the end. But still, I gave the movie a 9 out of 10 rating for Cha Tae Hyun's performance alone. It still proves that he alone can carry a movie inspite of its many flaws.

bretw I'm not certain why Korean audiences are going through the "sappy love story" phase that the United States had to endure in the 1970s, but "My Girl and I" follows the same dubious steps as "Ryan's Song" and "Love Story" complete with heart-wrenching tragedy, young love, class struggles, and with the oddly Korean addition of broad comic sidekicks without which the film would be unbearable. Beautifully shot, and acted with a heavy gravitas, the script is the biggest fault in the movie, with overly-ripe dialog which becomes more earnest and overbearing as the film progresses. The music is similarly unsubtle, with thundering strings and a solo piano line increasing in volume whenever a tragic scene raises it's head. Perfect date movie for the romantic sentimentalist foreign-film enthusiast (you know who you are).

Meganeguard One of the most common plots in Korean film is the traumatic tearing apart of a young couple because of a terminal disease. Most of these films start off bright and happy enough, but most of the time after the first hour or so one of the lovers learns of or reveals his or her disease and the film goes on until the sick partner dies and the other lives with the memories of his or her dead lover and tries to get on with life. My Girl and I is a bit different in the fact that from the outset that Su Ho's girlfriend dies at the young age of eighteen and that even after ten years he has not come to terms with her passing. This key feature, like reading a long flashback sequence in a novel in which the reader already knows tragic outcome, adds a tinge of melancholy to the early parts of this film because the viewer already knows that the young couple is going to be separated. However, it also makes these parts more touching as well, because it was within this brief period of time that Su Ho and Su Eun came to love each other.While out for a swim with three of his friends, an unconscious Su Ho is rescued by the beautiful Su Eun. However, before Su Ho regains consciousness, Su Eun runs off and realizes that she lost her beeper while rescuing Su Ho. At school, Su Ho soon notices that for some reason or another Su Eun is making eyes at him and that she is taking every opportunity to be close to him. After a mild scuffle with the captain of the judo team, Su Ho and Su Eun escape the scene and begin to become closer. Because her father is quite scary, Su Eun gives Su Ho her messenger service number so they can listen to each other's messages. Through this unusual way of communication, and other methods as well, they are able to build a romantic love for each other that will seemingly last for years… A Korean remake of Isao Yukisada's Crying Out Love in the Center of the World, Jeon Yun-su's My Girl and I really does not add much to the plethora of Korean romantic tragi-comedies, but it does take this sometimes vapid genre and breathe some new life into it with some truly great acting by the two leads. Another thing that struck me about the film was the attention to detail. Some of the most moving scenes take place within the hospital when the viewer listens to a voice over of the couple's messages, such as when Su Eun is pricked for yet another I.V. Also such attention to things like the bruises left on Su Eun's hands are heartbreaking because they are evidence of her frailty and the fleetingness of her life.
