No Dia do Seu Casamento (2018)

A little too real for me

7.5/10 is my rating. This is a 2018 South Korean Romace Movie that is 110 minutes long.

Hwang Woo-Yeon (Kim Young-Kwang) receives a wedding invitation from his long time friend and first love, Hwan Seung-hee (Park Bo-young). They had ten years together as friends and eventually as a couple. They parted ways and the wedding invitation is the first Woo-Yeon heard from Seung-hee in awhile. The wedding invitation makes Woo-Yeon realize he still has feelings for this girl he should not have let go.
*Spoiler alert I really liked their friendship in high school. She dated other guys and he other girls but they were always there for each other. He was obviously in love with her and she knew it yet held him at arms length. I think she did it because she knew if they got together romantically and it did not work it would end their friendship. Girls often feel that way and that is why a guy that has it all and seems perfect gets friend zoned. They do eventually become a couple and he blows it by saying meeting her was what made his life go downhill. It was the type of fight that most couples would get through but they did not. The fact that neither held on that hard is telling about their relationship. The ending was most disappointing. He receives the wedding invitation and spends some days drinking and being consoled by his friends. At the last minute he goes and hatches a plan to have a private discussion with the bride. Now this is normally where they would profess their love and make amends the walk off together. what happened was they apologized and thanked each other. Then they wished each other well and she exited to do the bridal walk and he walks away. It was what might really happen in real life but that is not what I watch drama for. I want the sweet romance, the love that lasts - you know happily ever after. It is a bummer because I liked elements of it but was saddened by the end. A good watch if you like a close mirror on reality.

I just watched this movie and it was really great but I didn't like the personality of seung Hee I think she didn't love woo yeon that much and I think she is selfish, I mean woo yeon did everything for her, he studied so hard and went to college just to be able to see her, he got injured and lost his opportunity to have a job because of her, when she had boyfriend she didn't leave him for woo yeon but on the other hand when woo yeon had a girlfriend he broke up with her immediately. Also when he said he regretted meeting her we all know he wasn't sincere and wasn't himself, he was sad and tired and she knew that but she left him and went to Belgium and when she came back she was getting married, she never gave him a chance she never considered going back to him because he wasn't that important to her. I think that's what happen when you love someone more than they do I really feel sad for woo yeon but overall the movie was so great and young Kwang was great like always.

So this may be my favourite Korean movie ever. I loved absolutely everything about the movie, it was both sad, funny and most importantly realistic. The cast is so perfect and the main characters chemistry and love story is over the top amazing. I am a sucker for sad endings because I find them more realistic and relatable. I found this movie extremely realistic, which I think, is what made me love this movie. The plot was so well made and following the couple through most of their life has an amazing effect of feeling like you really know the couple. Their story was so beautiful and I don’t know what else to write than I have watched this movie multiple times and it doesn’t get any less good.

On Your Wedding Day

I FINALLY watched this one and loved it as much as I knew I would!! It's so adorable and I highly recommend it to everyone!! The acting, the story, everything's amazing! It isn't "unique" and has been done before many times but I loved it still.

The way the two leads' friendship and love develops, the way we fall in love with the characters and want them so badly to be together but the damn timing just isn't right each time, really gets the viewer involved. I had all the feels.

*Spoiler* I was so sad they didn't end up together but it also made sense. This is life. It's reality. You don't always end up with the person you want to be with. Life gets in the way. And I was so glad that the male lead didn't try to force the female lead into running away with him or anything. He was respectful all the way. And loved her so much. Damn I want a guy like that. *Spoiler*

Anywho, amazing movie. Do watch. Worth it. 5/5 ?

cute movie

Ok so like 10 minutes in I thought about switching this off but I tell myself to just wait and see how things play out cause I did like the premise. I eventually finished and am surprised that the writer committed to that ending. Instead of pleasing the audience with a happy ending, we were given a realistic one and I can't be mad about that.

The plot was extremely easy to follow and even seemed a bit too easy at times. I wanted an event or character to come in and mix things up to create some good conflict but that didn't happen. Then I realized that this movie didn't need conflict. It was perfect the way it was. It really boils down to how people can come in and out of your life, some staying longer than others, but some people can have such an effect on you that they end up changing your life for the better. In terms of the movie, Seunghee had came into Wooyeon's life at a time where he was lost and didn't have a single sense of direction. Their friendship and his eventual feelings developing for her caused him to have a new outlook on life, and suddenly he began to think seriously about his future. Although Seunghee never knew found out about Wooyeon's feelings for her, he at least got to tell her after all those years that it was really because of her that he can now live a good life and be confident about it, and he only wishes her a good life and happiness in return. Yet even after this confession you I felt a twinge of regret from Wooyeon at Seunghee's wedding ceremony. The ending was sad but very much like life so that made the ending beautiful. 7/10.

THIS WAS AMAZING!! This movie was very realistic, and had a sad but realistic ending, it shows good character development as well, and the acting was amazing! This movie is one of my favorites! If you ever have some free time, watch this movie, it is really good! I don't know how much re watch value this movie has, because it is very emotional, and I tend to gravitate towards lighter dramas and movies when it comes to re watching things, so that is why for me personally, I don't see this having a high re watch value for me, but it is a beautifully orchestrated movie, and I think it has a lot of cute, happy and fluffy moments, and enough emotional moments to make you tear up, definitely recommend.

I had waited for this movie ever since it's first still image came out and I was so FRIGGIN excited seeing how the summary sounded promising and the still image looked quite attractive (of course) So, right after this movie got subbed on the day my finals ended, I looked nowhere else and sat down instantly to watch it. So, here's the review.

The story -
The plot of this movie is heartwarming and adorable. A guy falling for a tough female transfer student and then helping her to skip classes and secretly have tteokbokki- already sounds fun. I love movies or dramas which show a long-term story because the characters development in those are pretty exciting. Now comes the talk about the ending.
I personally think the ending of the movie was highly realistic. It makes you sad and makes you want to cry but seriously, the ending couldn't have been better but worse if it was a happy ending. It would look unrealistic and somewhat random if it had a positive ending with both marrying each other. Yes, the ending made me cry as well. But if I had to say it honestly, I disliked the male lead character ever since the high school and college part of the movie ended. He became selfish, and if anyone was in the female lead character's shoes, he/she would have moved on from that guy too. So to me, the ending was pretty much perfect.

The cast-
The cast was perfect too. Everyone played their roles in an amazing way. Park Bo Young is undoubtedly an amazing actress. She can play any roles out there and her acting skill is so diverse and impressive. The rest of the cast is the same and they were amazing too.

So, overall, all I have left to say is that this movie was a great one- a movie which can make you have all kinds of emotions. A real emotional roller coaster- kind of movie. I truly recommend it to everyone!

P.s- I had watched the movie right when the subs came out but I'm extremely late with reviewing,,

This was my first korean movie ever so I can't judge if this is like a must see korean movie but it completely exceeded my super high expectations. I love Park Bo Young, so I did expect a lot from her. She is seriously the best actress out there. Her and Kim Young Kwang's chemistry was so cute and realistic. Though I do admit I was disappointed by the ending because no one likes sad endings to romance movies. I think they could have made the main characters end up together but I wonder why the writer decided not to. I think there was only one original soundtrack to this movie and it is sung by Park Bo Young herself! It is so relaxing and beautiful. I listened to it on repeat.

This movie's story plot made me feel all the feels. I laughed like crazy at some parts, and wanted to cry towards the end. Just please watch it. It is not a waste of your time (like some people are saying). You'll thank me later.

Amazing.

I feel like a lot of people are disappointed in the ending, but I believe that the ending was what made this drama, likable and realistic.

I originally I saw an edit on TikTok of the last scene which is originally why I wanted to watch it so I feel like I had a giant spoiler right from the beginning but because of the ending I want to watch the entire movie.

I normally I can’t finish the movie, unless I know it’s a really good movie, but I did end up watching this entire movie without getting distracted because of how good it was.

Great acting, good storyline. 100% recommend!

No way this got me crying almost like 2521

I'm writing this one while crying so hard. As a person who is afraid of changes in her life this really got me. I've seen videos of this movie mixed with 2521 when we got that terrible ending too (not overcome it yet) and when I started watching this one because I wanted to watch every movie or drama where Park Bo Young appear, everything looked so familiar and then, the ending. wtf? I mean is so realistic, its something that everyone could face one day, but it still hurt me so much.

So im rating this one with a 7.5 cause I wont be able to watch it again without feeling the bittersweat feeling im having rn and bc the story got me ruined even if its realistic.
