Postcard to heaven
The story is sweet and romantic and the faces of the two leads bring warmth to the heart. No wonder Jae Joong is one of the hearth throb actor/singer in Korea today because of his handsome face but his acting still needs to be improved. Hyo Joo’s acting is somewhat like her character in Brilliant Legacy although i still look forward on watching her on a more serious character like her role in Dong Yi.
Overall the movie is good, i enjoyed it a lot. It made me cry and realize that de ja vu as well as dream happen. The story has a good ending with Jae Joong becoming a postman and Hana an illustrator and they were able to keep their love which a hopeless romantic like me would want to be.
