The love of my life (after Andy oppa of course), Wonbin, is back on screen after loooooong hiatus since his military duty. But this time instead of drama, he chose to comeback on big screen with new movie called Umma or Mother in english. The story is about the strongbond between mother and her son. In this movie wonbin took a role as a 28 years old, a shy and quiet young man that also mentally challenge. The mother is played by Kim Hye-ja (the one that played as Shin’s grandmother in Goong).
The story starts when one day there is a terrible murder in their neighborhood (i think ??) and somehow Wonbin becomes the prime suspect. There is no real evidence against him, but the police groundlessly suspect him almost instantly. The trouble is that there is no way he can prove his innocence. Eager to close the case, the police are happy with their cursory investigation and they arrest the boy. His defense attorney turns out to be incompetent and unreliable and a conviction seems inevitable. So, faced with no other choice, his mother gets involved, determined to prove her son’s innocence.
The story line seems so strong and promissing (looking another aspect of love.. isn’t it enought for us to watch those sappy movies about a man and a woman who love each other but due to some cliche situation such as one of then had cancer which make the movie became tragic love story). Aside from the story line, it’s Wonbin.. do I even need another reason not to watch it? kekeke.. anyway.. can’t wait the movie.. Wonbin oppa hwaiting!!!
