"Even simply brushing clothes with someone is fate" (옷깃만 스쳐도 인연) is an old Korean proverb that means every interaction between you and another person—even a stranger on the street—is never an accident, but rather the elaborate result of your past lives and theirs intertwining to make that momentary interaction happen. And if even the most seemingly trivial of interactions are the result of elaborate workings of fate (인연), then something as significant as meeting the love of your life is the result of 8000 겁 of fate. This is a commonly known Buddhist teaching. 겁 (Gup) is a measurement of time. Imagine a massive boulder, and imagine that a single raindrop falls on that boulder once every 1000 years. The amount of time it would take for the boulder to finally crack from the water droplets is 1 겁. A single 겁 is an unfathomably long period of time, so 8000 겁 is something that's hard to even attempt to imagine. The saying goes that for every married couple, there's at least 8000 겁 of 인연 (fate) from their past lives that led them to each other.

“You make my world so much bigger, and I’m wondeing if I do the same for you.”
One of my fav. quote in the movie.

[saifmahmudishtiakshushaan]

This is just a trailer and the chemistry between the characters is off the charts, incredible!

[kira.light]

This movie is just sooo realistic that even their stares and no words just gives you a ton of emotions. It left a hole in my heart

[victoryusmc]

Got chills from the trailer, I'm sure I'll be crying at the end of the movie

Hey, I'm from South Korea and I can relate to this trailer... Almost same thing happened to me recently. Around 17 years ago, when I was in elementary, I met a boy whose name was "Present" in Korean. He was my first crush. I liked his shiny round eyes, a cute wide smile, and white teeth. Sadly, I had to move to another school a year later. 18 years passed, and we met each other this January. We have become both 25. He studies in medical school and I just came back to S.Korea after obtaining a diploma from another country. I didn't know he had been reading all my posts on my public diary for a few months when I was back in France. Though he knew the one who was writing the diary was me, he never said "Hi" to me. Then one day I deleted a link that had access to my public diary, so he missed a chance to let me know.
A few years passed, and he noticed one comment in the comment section of one youtube video which showed a whole view of our hometown where we used to play together. That comment was, surprisingly, written by me. He noticed that it was me because I wrote down some of my personal background in the comment. He already knew I was living in France and I had a very special surname that stood out.
So we met each other once again through Youtube and we talked hours and hours on social media. We finally met each other this January and we had a nice Italian lunch, drank coffee and talked for hours and hours... I think we had a nice time.
We are not together tho. Maybe it was because of a bad timing or maybe because I've been having some issues with my mentality and physical health or maybe because he was in senior year at medical school...or maybe because I seemed such a deep person to him. BUT the important thing is, I have a feeling that we are still connected and one day we will see each other once again at right time and a right place.
Magic happens to those who believe in magic :)
Anyways, thank you for reading my magical story💛

Was lucky enough to see this at Sundance. You guys aren't ready. It's simply beautiful.

I just finished watching this movie, and it made me bawl my eyes out like a baby. Not because it counted on big, dramatic scenes but on all those little in-betweens that we all have in our lives, those moments where we are out of words, those in which we want to say something but can't and those where we say something different from what we want to. It was so emotionally charged, it made me feel deeply for- and with them and most of all, it left me thinking and feeling and also aching.

[ReadyPirate]

Reconnected with my love after almost 10 years apart this past fall in NYC (I’m thirty). Coincidentally, the first time we saw each other we also ended up in Brooklyn and took pictures in the same places they are taking pictures in the movie with the bridge in the background.

Circumstances took her across the world. I always knew she was the one and on starry nights, red sunsets, during milestones and in silent moments of reflection, I would wonder if I was still in her heart as she was in mine.

When we finally met up, I remember gazing into her eyes for hours searching for answers, we said so much to each other without saying a single word. Turns out, I have been in her heart as much as she’s been in mine.

3 months later this past January I travelled to meet her family. We’re hoping to get engaged mid year and planning a wedding for early 2024. Timing is everything and in our hearts and in our core, we always hoped to be each others forevers.

Update: We got married in Feb 2024

Well, someone just NAILED the casting for this one. 2 minutes, 24 seconds and the chemistry is rock solid. No need for over the top dialogue when you have such amazing body language. Soundtrack puts the nail in 'emotional' coffin. Can't wait

[myllasunaya]

Oh I love how the movie basically describes how you can still hold that love, reminiscing all the good memories, but you both know that you don't need to be together at the end anyway. Because those beautiful memories and feelings are only enough to keep you satisfied and happy with what you two have now.

[scholarsfly]

The last scene broke my heart into 8000 pieces.

[hassanseaid]

That last scene. It’s the awkward affection and love you still have for someone. It’s distant but also close.

[ESM_One]

The quick cut at the end showing them as kids was sublime. Gave me chills. There they are once again the two kids standing together but also apart on their divergent paths. The memory now in nighttime mirroring their present was beautiful visual poetry. A realization that their feelings for each other can only exist in a time and space both real and imaginary. Kudos to Celine Song.

[edwarddofficial]

Romance movies are not generally something I seek out, but it looks like the themes in this go deeper than the standard romance film. I am excited to see this!

[mzzy]

don't mind me... i just keep coming back to this trailer when i want to feel heartbroken.

[hayleyjadejones]

Saw this yesterday and don’t think I’ve ever been so moved by a film, I started crying from the very first scene and didn’t stop until 15 mins after it ended. but it’s not because it’s dreary or depressing, just so heartfelt and deeply relatable. Such a masterpiece of a film my heart aches remembering it.

[seebam]

Teo Yoo with his emotional eyes, charming smile above all this man's voice, OMG! he is the perfect cast for that role . All the actors portraying their roles so realistic, definitely would need boxes of tissues for sure to watch this :(

[ratgirl]

I think what makes this movie big is that it captures all the small, intimate moments that make up romance. It’s so beautiful to watch!

[publiovarro]

Many people in the cinema wiped their tears (me too). The emotion of love literally skyrockets at the very end of the film. Although I live in Slovenia, which is on the other side of the world, the emotion of love, and the language between two hearts, seems to be exactly the same, everywhere.
