During the onslaught of Tropical Storm "Frank", I was stuck at home with nothing to do. I was suppose to go to SM Mall and watch the Fete dela Musique but decided not to because of the storm. So there I was bored and had nothing to do. Luckily one of my cousins told me that she bought her sister's collection of DVD's. We decided to have a movie marathon and one of the movies that stuck me the most was the Korean movie simply entitled "Daisy".
Set in Amsterdam, Daisy tells the frustrating love triangle story between 1 girl and the 2 men in her life. One a professional hit-man eking out a living, the other an Interpol agent.
Park Yi (Jung Woo-sung) is a hit-man who found a soft spot for painter Hye-young (played by the pretty Jeon Ji-hyun of 'My Sassy Girl" fame). It's love at first sight in the meadows of daisies, where her clumsiness caught his attention. However, being shy and ever mindful of the dangers of his professional career, he can only admire her from afar, do little (or perhaps big) things for her in an anonymous fashion, but the one that takes the cake is sending her potted daisies everyday without fail at 4:15pm. He becomes her guardian angel from afar, shielding her and keeping her safe from harm.
Hye-young is in love with this mysterious stranger. She is constantly waiting for him to appear, but I really wonder how difficult could that be given the almost punctual daisy delivery. Nonetheless, she's terribly moved, and touched by this sole act. However, as the stars would have it, interpol detective Jeong Woo (Lee Sung-jae) chances upon Hye-young at a town square during one of his undercover missions, and he too is captivated by her. In a similar fashion, because of his profession, he is doubtful if he should make the first move.
The girl would eventually fall in love with the Interpol agent who she thoght was the man she has been waiting to find.However, The assassin can see everything that transpires in the square, due to having an apartment close by. Naturally, he is disturbed that another man has entered the young girl's life. How the shadowy love triangle play out? This is a beautiful picture to watch in this movie.
I really don't like the ending though but it was really a very intriguing movie to watch. Add the gloomy weather and it really summed up my entire weekend.
