Alejandro E Its strong point is that it tries to be original, without imitating the style of Japanese anime. That would be worthy were it not for the fact that the romantic drama looks generic and the connection between characters and viewer is weak, lacking empathy. Better luck next time. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 06/06/25 Full Review Nyla M The last time a movie made me feel this way was “Your Name” or “Howl’s Moving Castle”. I’m obsessed with the whimsical and colourful atmosphere created. Very visually pleasing. I LOVE the plot too, it’s classic but unexpected Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/05/25 Full Review Nicholas G First off just obsessed with this animation style  But god I love romantic movies like this. I need a love like this. It was so tense sometimes and I genuinely thought she might die Fantastic movie but sometimes the story was hard to follow and would’ve like to know more about Jay’s life Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 06/04/25 Full Review Ash P Korea's first ever animated film feature? Sure. It was interesting after seeing a trailer of this one. On the one hand, it would feel like another one of those generic romantic comedy films that you see in any other language. At the other, this has exceeded my expectations on how this film has given me. More than just your average romantic comedy involving a man and a woman who'd met, having a similar interest, and then falling in love as the days go by. This is an exploration of one's dream and then fulfilling them for both of them. A romantic comedy with drama that shares all their feelings across the board. One wants to go explore Mars. The other wants to bring his song to life. Learning more about one another, whether through one's trauma and the other is about their muddled past, they managed to tackle their love in a well-paced manner. A head's up, though. This review might contain some spoilers. You have been warned. Nan-Yeong is a young woman who is working with NASA and looks forward to exploring Mars to find her mother, who might still be out there. Jay is a young man who is living his life with music. One is modern. One is retro. Their tastes are what brought them together. It all started with Nan-Yeong wanting to get her mother's vinyl player fixed until she came across Jay. Later on, Nan-Yeong discovers that Jay was the guy who sang a song that was a teaser years ago. To Jay's surprise, he'd discovered Nan-Yeong's mother, who was on a mission similar to what Nan-Yeong was about to do with NASA but was fatally lost. To make matters worse for his worries, Nan-Yeong has been selected by NASA to go explore Mars. Sure, they broke up because of such. I originally thought it would take a good while, but thankfully, it doesn't take long for them to realize their short time apart, and they'd managed to get back together. As Nan-Yeong goes out to explore, Jay managed to get his song together. I would share what happens next, but I don't want to spoil too much as I already had. All this movie carries is not only the two star-crossed lovers. The animation is phenomenal. The way the scenery looks if we were to continue our advancement and not regressing as we are currently. The transitions. The music, even. Whenever you see both Nan-Yeong and Jay together in harmony, the music plays that it makes you feel like you're watching a music video. The voice acting is spot-on. I only saw the original Korean dub in this. Sure, the side characters aren't on too much, but they are also likable when giving the two leads support. I'm gonna give this film ten Jay offering Nan-Yeong an umbrella like any lover offering out of ten. 10/10. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/03/25 Full Review Karen K It's been a long time I cried because of a 2D animated movie. This movie shows about love that many people can relate to. Falling in love, breaking up and falling back in love. Very beautifully and emotionally. The visuals and details of future in 2050 very very gorgeous. The original voice actor (Korea) also really great. Because director Han Jiwon made this animation from the acting of the actors, its became more lifely. Must-see movie for healing your heart. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/02/25 Full Review Ankur M This movie brings out questions deeper than space or true love will watch it again cannot be more swooned by this peice Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/02/25 Full Review Read all reviews
