Cheol-soo could save Sin Jin from a bitter past, but who could be their savior in flight with losing the memories, love and life? Betrayed by the married man, Sui Jin left the tickets at the train station. When she came across a build laborer Cheol-soo at the gate of a shop, she had his cola, without knowing his name and the future that he was her real soul mate.The relationship between memory and love has been deeply explored and examined in this love story which makes it a bitter one. However, if you have already bored with Korean tear jerker, you will be surprised and moved by the depicting of touching moments in the couples daily life.
The movie is brilliant in building a perfect marriage life between two young Korean couples that any Asian girl would have dreamed of. The story touches your heart by the little sweet and exciting details of how they fall in love and the happy marriage.On a summer night, at an outdoor stand of a vendor, when Sin Jin took off a cup of strong hot Korean wine, Chelo-soo sealed her mouth by kiss. Their relationship started. Although born in a low class family, Chelo-soo was a charming guy to well educated Sui Jin. He palyed a tricky poker game and won her sweet kiss.Having finished the examination of architect, he in her handmade suits walked out of the building, she, waiting for him for a whole day, smilied sweetly at him "Did I asked you not waiting for me?" Even waiting seemed wonderful to a woman in love. After they get married, one time she hadn't remebered the boiling water until she walked out of the bathroom after showering and ran to turn off it. But Cheol-soo didn't blame it on her. He smiled and unsnapped her bathrobe to check if she had finished bathing cleanly. Sui Jin was as shy as a little girl. He loves her tenderly. Soon he purchased a set of new furnitures to her in order to prevent her from hurting by cooking. Moreover the virtue of self sacrifice driven by the unconditional love is fully showed in the figures. When Sui Jin was informed of the disease, she kept it a sceret and only released her pressure and suffering in the cry at the toilet. One day he hugs her in arms having a nap. She finally asked him that, what about if she quited the job, had a baby and became a housewife. He was a little bit surprised, but he happily agreed. When he was forced to play the joker game again, she cried out and left the couch. The game had not changed, neither did he. But she was going to forget all of these. "Why did you tell her the turth!"Question at the doctor, Cheol-soo finally found out the cruel fact of his adorable wife.Their marriage was tested by the disease which is eating her memories. When he was leaving for work, she called her ex-boyfriend's name Seo Yeong-min and said, I love you. He replied, me too. Closed the door, he cried out. Who does she really love? When the memories were erased, would love also disappear? He was ashamed of his doubt when he read the confession letter left by Sui Jin on the table. In a short time of gaining back sane memory, she wrote the letter and left the family.In the end, he visited her in a hospital and brought her back to the Familymart shop where all her families and friends loving her showed up. She asked him, Is it the paradise?
Chelo-soo drove her on the way heading to the sun.After watching this, probably even peaple who are torturing by being disappointed in love, would not erase the memories. Although the memories are past, they were our life and love. (By AmyLoa)

Review: Having watched so many Korean movies and dramas that end with someone having a terminal illness (Autumn in My Heart, I'm Sorry I Love You, remember those?) I thought I'd discovered all the tearjerker tricks...
I don't know why some people think it's too fast-paced cos it is possible for people to fall in love and get married in that amount of time, and I thought the use of elliptical editing was just right, not so excessive that you feel like you're seeing a trailer...
Enter "A Moment to Remember" (unofficial English title) which swept me away with it's amazing characters, decent story and tear jerking tragedy romance.
I also loved the musical score in the movie which was very well done especially during the last scene when its about to end.Simply an amazing movie though not perfect is right up there in my top movie list in this genre.
Korea have really made a name for themselves producing love stories just like A Moment To Remember.
Son Ye Jin absolutely suited the role which was to be played and so did Jung Sung Woo. At the beginning, he was seen as an arrogant man with little feelings, and yet the way Son Ye Jin taught him the way to love and treasure life was so touching.
Life, death, happiness, grief, come together in a magnificent production, with brilliant acting, especially by Woo-sung Jung, splendid cinematography, and a wonderful soundtrack.
i don't usually shed tears when watching a love story but this movie can lighten and bring down on its knees even the most ruthless, cold hearted, insensitive soul.
i watched this movie last night and i was tremendously impressed with the story mainly because it is one of those rare stories where something like this can happen.
if you don't believe a word i'm saying or if you think this is B.S, watch the movie and when you get to the middle and the beginning of the second half and throughout the end, you will see my point.the story is well developed, not too slow and not too fast, the perfect pace for such a dramatic film, no plot holes at all and excellent acting, which shows the actors took heartedly to the story.
I will admit that I am a hopeless romantic and I love to watch these types of movies.
Beautiful Son Yae Jin (The Classic) and handsome Jung Woo Sung (Musa - The Warrior, Mutt Boy) share A Moment to Remember!
The scene where she knows the truth about her disease and asks her Jung Woo Sung if he wants to have a baby, she was simply amazing.
Subtle and simple especially in close up shots,the guy has got some serious talent.On the whole it is movie worth watching which is like an oasis in a desert of meaningless movies!!!.
Plus, some water in case of dehydration.Now let's be serious, this movie is not just about love, how beautiful or sad it can be.
You may notice some kind of existential nihilism in it, the very very sad possibility that the life we know is pointless to us, which can actually be true if we dare to change our point of view to a more uncomfortable one.The actors and actresses, the scenery, the music, the story, the direction, the ending are beyond perfect.
The concept, story, and script are original, subtle and very thought provoking.The cast is superb, lead by a devastating performance by leads SOHN Je-jin and JUNG Woo-sung, who capture the extreme emotional ranges of their characters amazingly.Director John H Lee has certainly got a lot of talent.
so sad that people likes cheap drama like full house and Rain(Bi) and Song Hye Gyo won many awards for that, while son ye jin and the actor in this movie ( i don't remember his name though) doesn't seem to be recognized by any award..
Amazing acting, (specially woo-sung Jung) Amazing cinematography, amazing script (most of the line are unforgettable), amazing casts in short Amazing STORY!, super heavy drama.
A Moment to Remember is beautifully representative of this, and though some have previously criticized the feature as resembling The Notebook, not only is the film vastly different, it is also superior.Based upon the Japanese TV program Pure Soul, the feature opens immediately with Su-Jin (Son Ye-Jin), a young woman who experiences forgetfulness on a daily basis.
Ms. Ye-Jin is absolutely phenomenal in this role, the desperation and tearfulness she articulates while trying to remember something, coupled with the blankness in her eyes when a memory has completely been erased, making for a truly heartbreaking experience.
The costumes brilliantly suit the leads as well, both in their occupations, and their personal lives, but it is the attire they wear to their wedding that is easily the most glamorous, capturing the romantic atmosphere of this touching moment.Although Su-Jin's memory deteriorates over time, rather than the tragedy been an instant occurrence, we, the audience, helplessly and painlessly watch as the gorgeous couple begin to experience the unforgivable pain that comes between them, their love, and their memories, though Cheol-Su's determination to remain by Su-Jin's side is possibly the most painfully beautiful occurrence of all.
It should already be colossally obvious that this feature is bound to cause some tears, the later stages of the feature especially requiring tissues.Originally loathed by some of her co-workers for instigating a relationship with a fellow individual in their department, Seo Young-Min (Baek Jong-Hak), a married man, prior to the commencement of the film's storyline, as Su-Jin's memory begins to fracture, and Seo ventures back into her life, desperate to rekindle their affair, Su-Jin begins exhibiting difficulty attempting to differentiate the past, from the present.Though Su-Jin later stipulates how Cheol-Su never vocally admitted his love for her, the tears he sheds, after admitting he couldn't cry no more after experiencing a painful upbringing, brilliantly visualizes the agony he suffers each time he looks at the woman he loves, only to have her look at him like a stranger.
The performances by the other cast members assist in further drawing the viewer into the world of the characters, and though the doctor who discovers Su-Jin's condition, D Lee (Kwon Byung-Gil) is blunt and unforgiving in his description of her mental affliction, he captures the unsympathetic realism that so many doctors demonstrate in reality.The script, which accentuates the dramatic elements, alongside using occasional humor, is delightful, and the soundtrack, that is designed to help the audience comprehend the feelings taking place during the accompanying moments, is equally excellent.
Occasionally cute, touching, sad, but always honest in its depictions, A Moment to Remember is not a film that can be watched - it has to be, for it is dramatic excellence at its finest..
Jung Woo Sung loves So Ye-Jin so much that he tries everything to help her when she got ill.
' when she went to the place that they first met and remembered some things.This movies shows that one should never give up and should do his/her best for the special one..
all the movie is trying to say how the girl and the guy love each other truly deeply by many ways, e.g. when the gal got sick and went to the hospital, she sent a letter like below:" please don't find me, i hope you can find another great gal and be happy" that's shows typical subliminal need for the guy, and in fact hope the guy could visit her.
(write nothing and disappear if she really want the guy to forget her.) i suggest some good Korean movie, such as "Daisy" that i watched recently, great one..
The movie might seem a little long, and sometimes dragging, but the story, the dialogues, the intensity of the situations and Woo-sung Jung's (lead male's) acting keep you interested till the end.Though there have been many movies where one of the partners in a relationship is stricken with some sort of illness, this one comes as a fresh and mesmerizing romantic drama which is sure to get at least a few tears out of you.The Korean name of the Film, which literally translates into 'Eraser in my Head' is apt for the movie.
THAT is why I've seen this movie so many times...because no matter how many times I see the same heartbreaking or endearing scene, it still makes me feel the same way.
It's true that the movie can feel lengthy, but there are so many beautiful shots of the scenery plus THE SOUNDTRACK (exquisite) makes you wanna capture every scene.
There are scenes in which something very subtle (like a gesture, a quote, a conversation), either teaches you something about life, or makes you realize the true power of a deep genuine love (yep, went there, cheesy af I know).
The story began as usually and the actress was always the weak one and she had sick which can make her forget everything, but her husband (the actor is so cool in this film, very different when he acted in Musa) always accompanied her and taking good care of her.
And (for a miracle) she's not death just lose her memory, they were together.Both, the actor and the actress acted good beside this movie plot actually really good, it just why they always make one of them is sick or even death.You really have to watch this movie if you are one of the fans for romantic film.
one thing i can say about these Korean movies....they portray emotions and feelings so well as no one else can.The love and emotions in this movie are really touching.
The movie is about a couple who fell in love, get married and the girl has a disease called Alzheimer's and how they tackle with this disease.i will recommend you to watch this movie and please be ready with handful of tissue paper or handkerchief, this movie will make you cry..
This is the story of Su-jin who soon after suffering a heartbreak from her previous relationship meets Cheol-su with whom eventually she falls in love.During the first half of the movie the focus lies on their life together and makes people like me ,that read in the summary about Alzheimer disease , believe that this movie has nothing more to offer than that.Later on,we learn that Su-jin has been diagnosed with Alzheimer disease and we witness the effort of the couple to cope with the situation,and the problems that occur.The movie is the best I have seen so far surrounding Alzheimer's problems,but that's not all it has to offer.Great acting,nice plot,and very emotional.Feel warned..and prepare to cry..
They both start's to lead a very happy life.Suddenly Su-jin starts forgetting things very often.Su-jin then meets a doctor and takes some series of tests.Meanwhile the EX-Boy friend of Su-jin who was working in the same office with her comes back.Cheol-su is becoming successful in his architect business and continues a very sweet relationship with her wife.Su-jin then meets the doctor for her test results and the doctor says that she is affected by a very rare disease called Alzheimer's disease.the doctor says that because of the disease she will first get a mental death followed by a physical one and advises to quit her job immediately and stay in home.The next forty minutes of the movie cannot be explained in words, Some excellent acting by both Su-jin and Cheol-su i.e the lead pair.The movies makes a heavy feel at your hearts if you are not shedding out your tears while watching.If you are in love with some one then you cannot resist your tears at some moments in the movies.A MOMENT TO REMEMBER is one moment i am going to remember ever with little tears..................
i watched this movie a long time ago, without any subtitles.
As Su- Jin's memory begins to leaves her, the disease they face may turn out to be too much for even a love as strong as theirs A Moment to Remember is the latest representative of Korea's stunningly popular tragic drama genre, and features two of the region's brightest stars.

A Master pieceMost Romantic Film Ever made, Cried like a baby.Plus Points:-* Screen Play * Lead Actors Performances * Background Music * Cinematography * Romantic ScenesMinus:-* Some Drawback scenes in Between..The main plot of the movie is a love story between a couple...the story starts with the flash back episode of Cheol-su and Su-jin describing how they fall in love besides the previous affair of su-jin and a bad childhood to cheol-su...and the story continues with some good performances and script...i can't reveal the rest of the story....Well, I think no one should miss this movie...
I love the music, specially the Spanish music,, the actors and their the acting, of course the great story to tell.
this movie is absolutely amazing, it teaches you to treasure life in the greatest way,on the other hand its a very sad movie, totally a tearjerker i recommend this movie to everyone even those who don't normally fall for sad love movies, this is one of those movies that touch you so hard you can never forget it!!
truly a beautiful movie the actors are all great and Cheol-su looks incredibly hot!!
However, in case of "Moment to Remember", it is not sure which does the director want to portray, the lead and her husband facing this fear, or a manga-like love story.The man acts like a hero, from the beginning to the end.
Characters well developed- story moves at a perfect pace Not a big romance film fan but this changed that I thought the foreign language would be an impediment Far from it I was introduced to nuanced acting and perfectly paced character evolving along with the story and beautiful shots so pleased I found it and am telling everyone I know the good news but wow wow wow Go watch Today ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🌟.
A moment to remember is truly an exceptional film.It does not involve comedy as such instead its a very sad film which will surely touch your heart.According to me it is one of the best romantic film ever.The movie clearly shows us what is the true meaning of love and that saying 'I love you' means much much more than words.this film literally made me cry and I bet u will also.I would like to narrate the whole story but I don't want to ruin the film for u.The only reason why I rated it 9 stars instead of 10 is because it is not a true story.
"I will remember everything for you" are truly amazing.I am sure you won't regret watching this film..
I can't ever remember crying so much while watching and after a movie.
I love this movie so much.I don't know how many times I cried in the climax.
I like cheol-su character because he is kind and not abandons but help su-jin about her Alzheimer's decease.There are similar Korean movies or novels like this one (the main cast get Alzheimer or someone die of decease or die of traffic accident) but I like all of them.Pure love is best one..
Hence, you know she will be dying, since there still isn't any cure for this disease, and the movie was shot in 2004.The events which occur in the movie could be misleading in the sense that they could leave you with the feeling that it's just another very sad and emotional Korean dramatic movie, with beautiful moments and captures, and a heartbreaking ending.
And that's the underlying problem of Alzheimer's disease.So yes, it's a sweet, beautiful and heartbreaking movie, but for the people who are actually in the same situation, it points out that you should keep faith in the person who is sick, that if they forget about you, it's not because they didn't care about you, but because they can't help it.
I loved every moment of the movie to the core.
The scenes in 2nd half where the Ye-jin Son suddenly gets back her memory and feels so sorry for forgetting her husband and writing a note to him explaining how much she loves him.
3. To the end, Woo-sung re-creates the situation by which they met trying to help Ye-jin Son recall her memory!Fabulous movie, I have no words!
A Moment To Remember provides the mature viewer a perspective of how sad a relationship can become especially in trying times and how love can become stronger between couples in times of illness and suffering.It is a story a young 27-year-old young woman named Su-jin,who is diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease after marrying a carpenter who works for her father's company.
So it looks like Su-jin may just be one of the unluckiest people in the world.This movie features two of the region's brightest young stars led by the popular and attractive Korean actress superstar,Son Ye-jin as the young woman and the equally popular Jeong Woo-sung as the carpenter, the film is built on the premise that it is possible for someone so young to become stricken with an "old person's disease".
Overall,I consider A Moment To Remember,The Classic and My Sassy Girl as the best Korean movies out of the more than a hundred that I have ever seen so far.This is definitely the best.No doubt about it..
It treats love and Alzheimer in a way that makes you feel the joy and the pain of the characters.
I would recommend anyone that has had a closed loved one suffering from Alzheimer to watch this movie.
