Disappointing... Customer Review Rated Bad 6 - 6 out of 10
Very predictable. Kim Rae Won is gorgeous and charming as usual but that's about it. The chemistry felt forced. The story tells you how he becomes linked to her, but other than feeling sorry for her, I'm not sure why he falls in love with her. Here's another movie carried by Kim Rae Won.

Film-making straight from the heart Customer Review Rated Bad 10 - 10 out of 10
"...ing" is a tear-stained joy of a movie! Let's begin by trying to find the meaning of the film's mysterious title. In the English language, one puts abstract words into action by adding "ing" to the end of them. By doing so, "life" becomes "living" and "love" becomes "loving". That's what this movie is about -- it's about turning abstract concepts of life and love into the day-to-day joys and woes of living and loving. Lim Soo Jung plays Min Ha, a physically deformed yet pretty high school girl who has spent too much of her young life in the hospital battling a series of physical illnesses. Her mother (Lee Mi Sook) decides to pull the girl out of the hospital, thus giving her an opportunity to enjoy a relatively normal life in whatever little time Min Ha has left. Min Ha soon finds herself pursued by a handsome young photographer (Kim Rae Won), who moves in downstairs. The movie shines due to the exceptionally loving relationship shared by mother and daughter and the sweet surprising romance that develops between Min Ha and the photographer. The film's script is unusually well-written and its unexpected plot twists add just the right touch of poignancy and unpredictability. All three of the primary actors do wonderfully well in their roles, delivering real emotional power through understated performances. Lee Mi Sook in particular stands out as a single mom striving to do the right thing for her daughter although she knows it may shorten the time they can spend together. (If you wish to see more of this fine actress, I highly recommend the films "Pong" and "Besa Me Mucho", although both of them are suitable only for mature audiences.) I recommend "...ing" very, very highly for a general audience.

Too many would have beens Customer Review Rated Bad 6 - 6 out of 10
From the onset, the viewer is given a taste of how close the mother and daughter are, and this is an important foundation of the movie because of a twist towards the end.

Im SooJeung plays Kang MinAh, a reclusive young lady who knows she's sick but doesn't know EXACTLY how sick because that fact is hidden by her mother, whose only wish is to have MinAh's remaining years lived in happiness. Enter Lee YoungJae, played by Kim RaeWon, a photography student. He befriends MinAh, who is reluctant at first but gives in when YoungJae proves to be relentless in his pursuit of friendship.

And so the story progresses with YoungJae and MinAh dating. I didn't see any solid scene where I can conclude that the guys are falling in love, except maybe the hospital scene when YoungJae placed on MinAh's deformed hand a ring - and that signalled YoungJae being IN love already. And even that was weak because there weren't previous scenes to back it up. Sure, MinAh was probably attracted to YoungJae, her lines say as much; and YoungJae was extraordinarily sweet and nice to MinAh, but by the time MinAh succumbs to her illness, you're left hanging.

Now on to that twist I was talking about earlier. I'm not about to spoil the ending for those who weren't able to watch the movie yet, but I'll give my two cent's worth without spoilers. Here goes: the twist kind of muddled the plot a bit, and I found myself replaying scenes in my head as to when YoungJae and the mom could have possibly met. I was left to speculate. I also found myself reasoning with myself that maybe the reason why the scenes between Youngjae and MinAh aren't that solid to establish a romantic set-up is because there would be a twist towards the end. I got more confused rather than being enlightened though.

I think it would have been better if they showed the meeting between YoungJae and the mom earlier in the movie. the twist would no longer be a surprise as discerning viewers would already know what will happen, but heck, it would have been a million times better and more poignant. Think 10 Things I Hate About You and ...ING's plot would have been illuminating.

Simply Beautiful Customer Review Rated Bad 10 - 10 out of 10
...ing is a rare jewel among films and deserves so much more exposure. It is quite simply put, beautiful. A simple movie with a beautiful story containing so much depth, it pulls on every human emotion. Ing does so well showing the immeasurable love between a mother and daughter and the beauty that lies in every waking moment of life, while the dynamic between Im Soo-Jeong and Kim Rae-won is ever so bitter sweet. From the acting all the way to the soundtrack, this movie does not disappoint.

 Simply a great Movie!! Customer Review Rated Bad 10 - 10 out of 10
A very toching movie that shows the bond of family, friendship, and love. A movie that touches the heart of the viewer, that leaves a room feeling that everything is important and that everything has a place to be. I guess I don't know why I wrote this, but for a guy like me to watch this I really recommend watching this with someone you really care about, or if you just want a good movie to watch.

 you'll regret it.... Customer Review Rated Bad 9 - 9 out of 10
You'll regret it if you don't get it. It's a good thing that production company decided to re-issue this, it was out of print for over 2 years. I was fortunate to walk into a korean store and found the special edition. It's worth every penny. :) Lim so Jeong is aweseome, kim rae won is the same kim rae won. (This is also a good pre screening of Lim so jeong for any of her fans who plans to watch the Kdrama "Sorry I love you" aka Misa). The music here was also very good..especially the opening song. CD is well worth it too.

 Simple story but beautiful production, good! Customer Review Rated Bad 9 - 9 out of 10
Being a Kim Rae Won's fan, I bought this DVD. This is a film that worth to keep. Plot is so calm and quiet but you won't get bored, lots of beautiful shots.

 korean girl actress a real bombshell !!! Customer Review Rated Bad 10 - 10 out of 10
Forget the plot, the story line and the yak yak yak. I don't care for the mother/daughter relationship or for Mina's (the star) deformed hand, and her loneliness, etc. All that is not important at all. But what I found moving, upsurge of relentless emotion, the complexity of desire, and almost put tears in my eye-- the real masterpeice of the film was the girl/actress Mina. God, jesus christ she's one goddamned fine as korean gal. I haven't seen a woman that beautiful in my life. Wow. Incredible. I'm wordless.
