Tears for you
I am caught up with this movie.It's not a new one.Released last 2 years.
I almost teared like aunty next door who stock up tissue papers to dry her tear when watching Korean dramas.
Satoshi Tsumabuki and Nagasawa Misami played an important role in this movie.
The actress is a chio and the actor also not bad.
A brief introduction about this movie.
8-year old Yotaro gains a 3-year old step-sister, Kaoru, when his mother marries a jazz musician who plays in a club in Naha, Okinawa where they live. Before long Kaoru's father deserts them, and not long afterward Yota's mother becomes terminally ill. He fulfills her wish and becomes very protective of his younger sister who calls him 'nee-nee.' Thirteen years later Kaoru returns to Naha and comes to live with him as she starts high school.
Yota works hard making deliveries of vegetables from an open-air market by day to save money to fulfill his dream of having his own restaurant. He also assumes the role of pushing for Kaoru's entrance to a university. This allows less time for his beautiful girlfriend Keiko. Yota works hard constructing the place, but just as he is to open, the real owner appears.
Being swindled, Yota is left with a large outstanding loan. Keiko's father's plans do not include a working class son-in-law as he explains when he offers to pay Yota's debt. Although he refuses, Yota concludes he is not best for Keiko's future. Years later he continues to overwork even after the debt is paid and Kaoru starts university study. With her feelings of love for Yota growing deeper, they mutually decide to live apart.
Watch it if you feel like crying....
