Love Story in Harvard
I just finished Love Story in Harvard. If i remembered it right, this was released back in 2005. For someone who's totally engrossed in Korean drama and movies, for as long as the story is good and worth 20 hours of a week -- nothing matters. Not even how old the movie is.
It starred Kim Rae-Won (the charming hunk from the movie ...ing) who played as a Harvard law student. The story for me was 3 out of 5 -- simply because i can enumerate some distinct points i did not like. First, the Harvard medical student Soo In was so confusing her character kept on switching from the woman who fell in love with Hyun Woo but eludes him for reasons that only she will understand. It irritates me when this went on for i think a few episodes. Second, the casts' english was not that good - and sometimes came to point that it's incomprehensible. Well, except for Jin Ah -- the other woman in the love 'square'☺. And, the 'american students' had a lousy acting. I was also trying hard to listen to the sound track if it's in english. At one point it sounds english - at another point - i just couldn't figure out. Go check for yourself. lol.
Good thing about Love Story in Harvard though is that, the ending was quite satisfying. Satisfying in the sense that the story has a clear cut ending. It was not just a story that ends after the romance ends or after everything was told about the love story.
It is still a good pick, but only if you'll tolerate a little incomprehensible english.
