L'amour est bien plus fort que nous , @slowwalker.

Baek Seok and Kim Youghan were star-crossed lovers whose romance it seems was never fated to be.

They were separated by war and distance, and ultimately, by culture. Even their country was divided.

I found it interesting that in the end, Kim Youghan divested herself of her assets turning her restaurant into a Buddhist temple.

What makes love eternal is not the passion that initially draws two people together, but the commitment to stay together until the end.

Kim's devotion to Baek was demonstrated yearly on his birthday, and now forever, in the memorial temple that Kim Youghan left behind.

A wistful and yet inspiring story of true love, my friend.
