Watch Always For Free

A Major Disappointment

The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.

It's an amazing and heartbreaking story.

Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.

My first time to make a review here. I just register to rate it 10/10 and invite everyone to watch this movie. I've watched several Korean movies this month land i just love how Koreans make a movie that gives an impact emotionally and how they make a wonderful story, not to mention their superb acting. This move is one of the best, it just stirs your emotion and the movie will linger on your thoughts for some time. Love and sacrifice is what it is. When you love someone, you will go into the depths of sacrifices if needed. Highly recommended. You will not regret watching it!

"Always" is just a little bit superior to your regular Asian romance film; on watching the movie, one marvels at the subtle nuances, the low-key expressiveness of the actors. In the hands of an inferior director, the script would have deteriorated into run of the mill mush but Mr. Song Il-gon covers all bases perfectly. I would like to shake this guy's hand personally and thank him for creating this masterpiece.The climax is definitely Jung-hwa's breakdown (near the underpass); to say this scene is one of the most moving pieces of cinema is an understatement. If I was an Oscar jury member, I would hand Han Hyo-joo a Best Actress trophy pronto. That type of unbridled emotion takes a lot of guts and balls to pull off. So Ji-sub is excellent as the hardened ex-boxer, Jang Marcelino/Chul-min. The support cast is also commendable for their individual performances.I'd like to ask a question though: how come Jung-Hwa never figured out Chul-min's face/identity after regaining her sight? She could've done a little investigation; the guy used to be a local boxing champion, surely there's a photo lying around somewhere. In spite of this minor foible in the plot, the superb acting of the cast and the masterful direction of Song Il-gon elevates this from the usual mass of rom-coms and romance dramas. It is such a shame that this was under-appreciated at the box office. "Always" is that rare gem and a definite classic of film drama.

This movie may appear to be like any other bittersweet love story as for example the Hollywood drama "The Notebook" which is widely known for the tragic tone entangled with the lives of the two lovers. This one is different. This story is ruthlessly heartbreaking and at the same time mesmerizingly beautiful. It will play with your feelings, it will make you hide your head under the pillow, and it will make you laugh hard for it's innocent approach to life. It will make you agitated, it will make you anxious. It will make you feel like a heavy load has been lifted from your chest after the happy scene which will bring out yet another denouement which isn't the last one. This story will maybe disappoint the ones who seek for something different, something utterly tragic, or on the other hand, it will surely touch the hearts of the emotional ones and make such a strong impression that it will last for some time... Anyhow, it will make you remember that life and love should never be understated, never!

i was so deeply moved and touched by this wonderfully crafted korean movie. i used to love the action packed suspenseful thriller movies, but sometimes, when a rarely find wonderful romantic movie could also melt my stubborn old heart deeply trembled with the ultimate soft feeling of a human being. what i'd like to point out here is that the koreans actually are the most romantic race in the world, it's so contradict to what they usually showed to other people. the formulaic korean national characteristics being cruelly portrayed are obnoxious, stubborn, arrogant, impolite, impatient and sometimes, very illogically unreasonable. but these are actually wrong, because deep down in most korean hearts, they are just so helplessly romantic, otherwise, they won't be able to produce so many wonderful break-your-heart tear-jerking romance dramas in both TV and movies and, if they are good, they are not just commonly good, they are crazily fantastic! i think this special korean tenderness also subtly showed in their beautiful electronic and vehicle products. this movie, again, is a perfect 10. you should get rid of what you've already become and watch this movie with the tenderness that still not die in your heart. and i sincerely believe that after watching this movie, you would feel better and become a nicer person, temporarily, of course.
