A musical story told mainly in flashback from 1956 onwards, two men share their stories over a night of drinking. From childhood Dong-ho and Song-Hwa, are taught to be the drummer and singer in the old Korean pansori style by a domineering stage-father. The boy eventually leaves to make his own way and loses touch with the (foster) sister and father. The three of them run into more than their share of misfortunes and hardships, and travel independently across the breadth of Korea, every few years they meet briefly. Pansori didn't appear to be the way to riches. Lots of the periodic singing and grand scenery, floating cherry blossoms, mountains, wind-blown grasses, artistic trees, some real nice photography here. The music and singing are very emotional. A lamentation for better times past, this movie is a good portrayal of the Korean psyche.
This is a beautiful movie. The beautiful cinematography makes you desire to visit Korea. And the musics makes you want to know more about Korean music and culture.
These are all the decorations of this great movie.
The story of people and the love of them is so pure. They preserve their love even when they are apart and keep their love unchanged while the world changes.
This is a love story begins from childhood to the very end and the name of the film suit it perfectly.
Sit back, take a deep breath, and enjoy.
