Aroma de Verão (2003)

O Perfume de Um Amor Imortal

"Summer Scent" é a terceira parte da famosa série "Four Seasons", e gira em torno do conceito de um amor renascido. Yoo Min-woo, ainda devastado pela morte de sua amada, encontra Shim Hye-won, uma mulher que recebeu o coração da falecida em um transplante. Sem saber dessa conexão, Min-woo e Hye-won sentem uma atração inexplicável e irresistível, como se seus corações estivessem destinados a se encontrar novamente.

Este dorama é uma bela e poética exploração do amor, onde a natureza e as estações desempenham um papel simbólico na jornada emocional dos personagens. Com sua cinematografia deslumbrante, cenas de paisagens naturais exuberantes e uma trilha sonora envolvente, "Summer Scent" captura a sensação de um amor predestinado, entrelaçado com o mistério da memória e da perda. É um drama suave e comovente, ideal para aqueles que acreditam na força do destino e no renascimento do amor.

KDrama is in that context also a master of nasty, often enough quite malicious twists and turns. However, "Summer Scent" is comparably less makjang, but more morals. Nevertheless, with their decisions the protagonists truely can put a strain on your nerves. You should to be prepared to sympathy, suffering and compassion - even if you might struggle at times. This KDrama, too, with its twists and turns rocks the boat until the very end...

The plot juggles a heart transplant with the idea of cell memory. The whole story is poetically told, memorably filmed in front of a summery backdrop and played with a lot of heart. On top of that, the soundtrack eats its way mercilessly into the hearts of the audience: Schubert's Serenade, sometimes in German, sometimes in Korean, sometimes instrumental, but: the serenade again and again...
