One of my favorite movies : My sassy girl (Korean ver.)

The actress Jun Ji Hyun became immensely popular after the film's release. I loved seeing her in her younger age in the movie, and I still adore her on screen even now.

As for Gyunwoo, the male protagonist, I believe he possesses characteristics that many girls would find endearing(or not?). I can't speak for others, but at least I do.

While his appearance may not be my preference, his personality certainly aligns with my taste. He displays moral integrity, compassion, and good natured, all while maintaining emotional resilience and not getting too easily hurt.


Key traits of Gyunwoo's character:


  1. Patience and Compassion At the core of Gyunwoo's character lies an extraordinary level of patience and compassion. Despite the sassy girl's erratic behavior, he maintains remarkable composure and understanding. Gyunwoo's unwavering patience allows him to weather the storm of her mood swings and impulsive actions, while his deep sense of compassion enables him to empathize with her struggles.


  1. Moral Integrity Gyunwoo possesses a strong moral compass that guides his actions. He consistently strives to do what is right, treating others with kindness and respect. His integrity shines through in his interactions, as he respects boundaries and makes choices aligned with his principles. Gyunwoo stands as a moral anchor amidst the turbulence of their relationship, providing a steady presence and a guiding light.


  1. Gentle Nature Gyunwoo's gentle nature is a defining aspect of his personality. He approaches situations and people with a calm and tender demeanor, demonstrating care and consideration in his actions. This gentle disposition is particularly evident in his interactions with the sassy girl, where he offers emotional support and understanding. Gyunwoo's gentle nature serves as a soothing balm, bridging the gap between their differences and fostering a deeper connection.

His keen observations allow him to develop a deeper understanding of her, perceiving the pain and vulnerability she hides beneath her sassy exterior. Gyunwoo's sensitivity enables him to connect with her on a profound level, fostering a genuine bond.


  1. Submissive Dedication A notable aspect of Gyunwoo's character is his submissive nature, particularly in his relationship with the sassy girl. He willingly accommodates her desires, prioritizing her needs above his own. Gyunwoo's submissive dedication illustrates his selflessness and unwavering commitment, highlighting the depths of his love and the lengths he is willing to go for her.



Each time I watch the movie, it keeps pulling me in. While it includes comedic elements that don't necessarily reflect reality entirely, it does convey the atmosphere exceptionally well.


And my favorite line from this movie is... :


Ji Hyun : Hey, why is the sky blue?
Gyunwoo: ...? Well... It's because sunlight scatters in the air, and longer wavelengths appear as blue...
Ji Hyun : Wrong! It's because of me. I want the sky to be blue, so it's blue. Got it? Do you know why fire is hot? It's because of me! I want fire to be hot, so it's hot. Understand? Oh, do you know why there are spring, summer, autumn, and winter in Korea?
Gyunwoo: ...Because of you?
Ji Hyun : Exactly! The reason you were born is because of me. Gyunwoo: Wait! I was born first. How could I be born for you?
Ji Hyun : Don't you know the concept of preparation? Peter came first to prepare for the birth of Jesus! Don't you know that?
Gyunwoo: I know...
Ji Hyun : Then, do you know why those soldiers passed by earlier?
Gyunwoo: Because of you. sigh
Ji Hyun : Exactly!

Me watching the movie also : Exactly!



Maybe she is right. It even sounds like some books on spirituality. It resonates so much with what I have been reading recently.

That the entire universe is connected and can be actually a unified whole, or...
that there are only or you as consciousness and the world, or...
sth like these.
