I’m excitedly anticipating this movie. Gonna watch it this weekend :)

You Are My Sunshine

Initially, I thought this would be another tear-jerking Korean drama. But upon viewing the trailer, it totally made me change my mind.

Basing on a true story set in Korea…

An old bachelor Seok-joong, who has no experience in dating, falls in love at first sight with a prostitute named Eun-ha. At first Eun-ha shows no interest in Seok-joong, but gradually she begins to be flattered by his devotion and eventually falls in love with him. They got married. However, one day, Eun-ha finds out that she is infected with HIV and decides to leave Seok-joong.

Man, how sad. Eventually, the guy tried all means to look for her whereabouts. How noble can that be? I mean she’s contracted AIDS shocked Put yourself in his shoes, what would you do?

In short,

He Her

Thus…

What is true love?

I guess no one have an exact answer to this question, even myself.

Put yourself in 4 situations. Let’s imagine the below happens to your beloved.

(1) Contracted a contagious disease

AIDS? Herpes? Bird Flu? Etcetera… These can be deadly, eh? There you are, sleeping with him/her every night. Or maybe you aren’t even married yet. Now what would you do? Dump him/her and never ever gonna contact him/her again? Period.

Now where’s love?

(2) Had been disfigured

The once pretty or handsome face is no longer there. Which makes me think, how many of you out there likes/loves someone just because of how he/she looks like? Perhaps a 99.9% or so?

“Oh no lah, I like him/her because he/she has a heart of gold. He’s/She’s so caring, kind and understanding.”

Probably there is only a handful who is telling the truth. BUT still, stop lying through your teeth. It’s either:-

  • He/She is rich
  • He/She has a very nice figure
  • You can gain from him/her. Or he/she can help you with a way or another.

And the list goes on, whatever you can think of other than having the good looks.

Now tell me, who doesn’t like pretty babes or gorgeous hunks? We all do, including myself, I admit. And a stupid friend of mine once told me, "I will surely dump my gf if she is disfigured."

I immediately gave him a tongue-lashing. Asshole.

Now where’s love?
