Kim Ji-soo is a piano teacher whose maturity level doesn't correspond to her age. She is quite like the unfortunate composer Salier who could not give up music despite his lack of talent.
Her counterpart is Yoon Gyung-min, a child prodigy with genius like Mozart and a dark and painful childhood. He is the musical version of Billy Eliot so to speak, a child with a special gift growing up in a disadvantaged environment.
The movie presents a dramatic story of a special duo, an immature piano teacher and a troubled child prodigy. The average person will naturally find it hard to understand a genius. Kim Ji-soo, who is just like us the average people, aspires to fame as a piano teacher through the prodigy she has stumbled upon. But a genius demands protection and commitment. So 'Salier' faces a tough choice of sacrificing himself for 'Mozart'. The strength of this film lies in the drama created by the oddly matched characters, and its heartwarming message is delivered by the teacher, who began in self-interest learns to act in selfless love for her student. |
