The SBS Friday-Saturday drama 'Our Movie' (written by Han Ga-eun and Kang Kyung-min, directed by Lee Jung-heum) is capturing viewers' hearts with the story of Lee Je-ha (played by Namkoong Min), who gradually learns about love after meeting Jeon Yeo-been's character, Lee Da-eum.
In the drama, Lee Je-ha, who clung to movies during his childhood to escape the pain of his sick mother and the scandal caused by his father Lee Doo-young's affair, never believed in love. However, his heart begins to thaw thanks to Lee Da-eum, a terminally ill consultant and lead actress of 'White Love.' Despite her limited time, Da-eum's zest for life brings warmth to Je-ha's daily existence.
Especially, Je-ha finds himself incorporating the small stories shared by Da-eum into the script and thinking of her even when scouting filming locations. Even without fully understanding his feelings, his efforts to complete the movie to protect Da-eum's dream hint at a new breeze blowing through his heart.
Moreover, Je-ha is helplessly drawn to Da-eum's kindness, which soothes the wounds caused by his family's dark secrets and teaches him about the emotion of love. Celebrating Da-eum's birthday and spending time together by the sea, warmth slowly returns to Je-ha's previously lonely days.
In this situation, his colleagues have already noticed the unique warmth with which Je-ha treats Da-eum. Faced with their direct questions about his feelings for Da-eum, Je-ha initially denies them, but soon finds himself engulfed in deep conflict and contemplation due to his surging emotions.
Seeking answers, Je-ha reads the 'White Love' script left by his mother and, upon encountering a dialogue discussing the qualifications of love, finally becomes certain of his feelings. Facing Da-eum, who has always bravely approached him despite nearing the end of her life, Je-ha can no longer hesitate and confesses his true feelings, delivering a deeply moving moment.
Thus, Je-ha, like the male protagonist of the movie 'White Love' he is creating, gradually learns all the emotions that love entails from Da-eum. With limited time left, Je-ha's passionate pursuit of love is drawing attention.
The heart-wrenching romance of director Namkoong Min, who has no tomorrow, continues every Friday and Saturday night at 9:50 PM in 'Our Movie'.
