My Brilliant Life (2014) Korean

One of best Melodrama depicting Parents love and affection.  Ah-reum a 17 year old kid suffering from Progeria , a rare disease seen one in million which makes one body age rapidly 10 times faster then a normal human being. By age 17  Ah-reum already looks like a 80 year old person while suffering from many other disease which usually noticed during old age. This movie shows the care & affection his parents have on him at same time portraying this kid thoughts the way he sees the world from his eyes. This film has many feel good part too but later on it would just melt your heart seeing the pain each character had to go through, yet its so lovely to watch this pure form of innocence love. There are so many scenes which would really leave tears in your eyes even without you realizing it. To mention few,   Ah-reum father reunion after many years while getting to know about the large donation , another scene when Ah-reum parents breakdown with tears on hospital stairs after seeing their son health condition deteriorating or to mention that final new year scene stopping the car in middle of traffic struggling through a tragic situation while whole world celebrating, these are just few i would say out of many which will haunt you for sometime. I really enjoyed this movie which i feel in line of babam ve oglum or Like Father Like Son and again its not for someone with light heart. With a little bit of patience, one can really experience the beauty of it. Dont miss it.
