Because the story is based on 1999, many retro props appear in the play, such as bb call, big phone, large computer, telephone booth, video tape, etc., which not only adds to the atmosphere at the end of the century, but also makes people feel nostalgic.
This movie is somewhat similar to "Twenty-Five, Twenty-One", and has descriptions of youth and friendship, but "The Girl in the 20th Century" focuses more on the description of love.Without too much modification and overly complex plot, the audience will soon enter that simple romance. Although it is a pity that there are not many sweet shots, this is youth, which always brings some regrets. The heroine in
casting is really the best choice to play by Kim Yu-jung. Her lively and cheerful aura and natural and unpretentious appearance not only make the two male protagonists moved, but even the audience will be moved. She also acts very well in the face of the confusion between friendship and love. Although the plot of
cannot be said to be very good, after all, there are still similar plots, but the turning point and the final ending are well written, which will give people a small surprise. You can watch this movie when you have time and think of the first love look like.
