“Still Shining” K-Drama Hits Me Hard

Chapter #8 — Writes Everyday

April 24th, 2026

I’m not really remember when I start to watch this movie. Recently, I realized that the story line is related to my life a bit.

The film tells about two persons who slowly burned in fall in love. They both was in a friendship since high school but the plots tell about how they meet again after 10 years and how difficult of life it is.

One thing I can relate to: sometimes we have different “right” time for our beloved ones. Everything feels warm, but we never in the same path. That hurts me, when Tae Seo still keep in his drawer: their photograph while together and the gift that he got from his beloved. He always miss the moment they pass together, and influenced by Eun-a’s future dream. But, the life never get them in a moment to be together. His grandma is needed more of Tae Seo’s time to recovery, he afraid that never give it as best to Eun-a.

Watching this movie keep me sad and guilty at the same time. I can feel how lonely Tae Seo to pass every hard moment just by himself–as me. He far away from home and nobody talk except co-worker.

I always hope to find the right one, who willing to be in the same path as me. Wo can accept me and my family, also I’ll do that. I just need 24/7 friend to chat and tell him how bad my day, yapping about all of my favorite ones. Also, who really ready to explore this journey: our life.

Thank you Tae Seo to speak up my mind.

Sometimes there are many times of hard moment that we won’t share to anyone. Just because we don’t share it, doesn’t mean that you are not important person. It’s too hard to tell how hard it is
