Sunday's Movie Nights-Millionaire's First Love (Korean)

Theme of this movie is "Nothing is more important than the true love of your heart."

Kang Jae-kyung is a typical spoiled rich kid; he’s arrogant, drives sporty cars, attends the big clubs, and rides through school corridors on his motorcycle. As his 18th birthday approaches, he’s set to inherit his grandfather’s fortune, a five star hotel. However, Jae-kyung must earn his fortune. His grandfather lays down an ultimatum; Jae-kyung is required to transfer to a new school in Gangwondo and graduate. Until then all access to his penthouse, cottage and credit cards are denied. Should he fail to graduate or drop out then he loses everything. With little choice he heads out to the countryside and a small town in which daily life is far removed from what he’s used to.


Shortly after settling into his new home he meets 19 year-old Choi Eun-whan, who just happened to run into him back in Seoul. They don’t exactly hit it off; he’s far too stubborn and cool for school, while she sees hope for him and sets out to make him see it for himself. As they eventually draw closer, thanks to a set of coincidences and school projects they learn more about one another, but soon a shattering revelation will change these people forever. -wikipedia


As a part of our Sundate we make sure we watch a movie or two. This time it's a korean flick and I get to choose the title.  At first it bored me due to Jae-Kyung's arrogance and kept me wondering about Eun-Whan's first scene. This movie made me realize the happiness of having a simple life in the province. Where having spa isn't a need but a luxury. A Php100 goes a long, long way and could prolly last a week. I was born and raised in the city and together with that city life grew on me as well. Parties, technology, shopping, fast-paced life, traffic, etc. I have no regrets of growing up in the city, I am very thankful for having to experience it. Given a chance to choose where to settle down I'd be happy to stay in the province and enjoy the happiness of living a simple life. That's all or now~ Ciao!
