About
Movie
Anyone who
has experienced love will
remember many painful situations
that have occurred due to
entangled desires. Although
experiencing a love that has
vanished over time is painful,
most love affairs become even
more painful in cases where A is
at the mercy of B and B is at
the mercy of C and their desires
can¨t come in tune. We become so
disarmed in front of someone who
we love but we become extremely
cruel in front of someone who
loves us more than we do. These
situations repeat over and over
again in our ordinary lives as
we age and let time pass.
Before the Summer Passes
Away starts at the
moment fall approaches. The
dialogue lets us know about what
happened in the summer and the
steamy moments they had in
Paris. This movie captures the
present state of these
characters that have kept and
cherished these memories
although many incidents have
already passed.

guy. Hyun-jae, who is deeply
into her, but So-yeon still
