oh my god, I hope you read this. I signed up only to get in contact with you.
I want you to help me. Please recommend me a real good Korean movie. The movie should be about the love between two.
A love so strong you wouldn't think it might ever end. But they seperate, yet their feelings remain.

Plese. I need you to do this. It means much to me. Thank you.
