The Classic (2003)

Son Ye Jin shines in this melodrama but the story doesn't quite stand the test of time
29 March 2020
For fans of Son Ye Jin and Crash Landing on You this is an interesting watch to see her in an early role. She acts well and is really pretty. No one acts in love as well as her. It's a cliched melodrama and confusing with the two time frames sometimes. The good points are the love triangle is quite well played out and there is an epic sweep to the story. There is some humor here and there. The story doesn't quite stand the test of time - maybe a twist too much. She plays 2 generations - one with pig tails the other with hair down. Jo In Sung plays her modern day love interest and his acting is very wooden here.
