Late in August, love is also late

A light start, a light end, a light happiness, a light sadness. Neither side of the love said anything, one was ashamed to say it, the other couldn't. But when both sides of the love have spoken out, the two letters are buried under the old photos that will not fade. The girl will go to the photo studio again and again, and the man will buy her ice cream, make her a cup of coffee, and help her change the angle of the wind. The beginning of the story is thin happiness, like a handful of sand slipping off your fingertips, please be gentle and warm. When she heard the sound of the motorcycle turning back behind her, she would smile secretly; she would secretly hide her unbearable lunch when she saw her coming; she made up for him, she became happy and depended on for him. They would have a late-night snack in the store at night, and she would secretly hold his hand on the way back with izai at night, and they would talk about ghost stories that weren't scary or even funny. It should have simply continued, but it was tricked by fate.
I think this love is too late. Love could have lasted, as the man said at the end of the film - "The feeling of love always fades, like an old photo." I think if it were me, I would laugh, even though I don't know the lover yet Where did I go, why I couldn't find him, but he didn't run away from me, he hung my photo in that August photo studio forever. In many stories, before the end of love, there is always a vigorous feeling that can be unforgettable for one's life. It will be turned into a memory and will remain in everyone's heart. But how can such shallow and weak feelings make people feel free from regrets? The departure of a man may make the girl confused and angry, and then go on the road to find her own happiness, so that this hazy relationship gradually fades in her heart, but she will never know that the person who loves herself will always stay in the same place, but never again. out of sight. Love is late, but it still begins, should I be happy or regret? Why touch the hand of a lover can only be groped on the glass window? Why my illness can only be confided in jokes...
a seemingly happy ending, a confession of love, a confession without commitment. Tears in laughter, bittersweet look. After reading it, the feeling is very similar to the feeling of reading "Love Letter". I feel full of sadness, but I can't find a way to vent. The protagonist understands what he didn't understand in the past, but he can no longer recover the regrettable things he missed.
Leo boys are optimistic and tolerant, have their own deep thoughts, and have their own unique expressions. He knew that in the face of death, he was given a long-lasting love, and he could have a buried love forever; at the same time, he also knew that there were still many opportunities for the girl, and his departure was not worth letting her choose to give up and love , so he hopes that her feelings for him can gradually fade. Just a black and white photo, the black and white photo of her hanging at the door of the photo studio, expresses everything.
Whether love can last, this question is explained at the end. You can really compare this film with "Love Letter". The vitality of love lasts as long as it lasts. Even the end of life cannot put a stop to this love.
When August is late, so is love.

Christmas in August quotes

  • Jung-won: [Sitting on a rubber tire in his old school playground] When I was a kid I always sat alone in the playground after the other boys had gone. Thinking about my late mother, it struck me that we'd all disappear in the end... my father, my sister, all my best friends.

  • [last lines]

    Jung-won: [narrating] I always knew that feelings of love would fade - just like old photographs. But for you... you will always remain in my heart, as you are in my last moment. Thank you, and goodbye.
