Movie review:

Jung Il come back home after working at Vietnam for 8 years. Soon Nam didn't open the door for him. Jung Il went to his sister house and stay there for couple days. Jung Il went to Ye Sol school. He pick her up but Ye Sol scared of her father. Jung Il escort Ye Sol home and buy a sticker for her.
Jung Il went to a grocery store to met Soon Nam. She don't want to met with Jung Il. Jung Il pick Ye Sol and went to a cafe to eat dessert. Ye Sol want to eat a half and bring the rest home for her brother, Su Ho. Jung Il come inside the house and saw Su Ho room. He fix some lamp there. Soon Nam went home and met Jung Il. She ask him to sign divorce paper but Jung Il refused and told her to hink about it again.


Jung Il start to involved in Soon Nam and Ye Sol lives. Ye Sol open up to her father. Su Ho birthday will come in a couple week. Some people from Sewol ferry incident plan to celebrate Su Ho birthday with the people who care and love Su Ho. Jung Il accept the proposal because he never do anything fo Su Ho. Soon Nam later knew about the plan, she refused to give some Su Ho picture. Soon Nam really mad with Jung Il, because he never present when the incident was happen, when Su Ho was died.


Ye Sol scared and trauma with ocean. Soon Nam received therapy from psychiatry ward. Jung Il try to fit to their lives. He try to find a job too. At Su Ho birthday, the family come to the party. They met Suho friends. Reading letter to Su Ho and talk about the incident.


The movie was superb. You really need to bring a box of tissue while watching the movie. I cry a lot while watching toward the end of movie. It's really heart wrenching. The pain of the family. Wahhhh. I can't describe it. You should watch this movie, if you ready to cry and feels so broken heart.
