I just
watched a Korean movie entitled Sunny. It is about a group of high school
students who were bonded by friendship. They go to school together, they sing
till they tired each other, they fight with other group of girls; they laugh,
cry and smile. Their group is composed of seven girls with different
personalities. There’s a leader who always cares for them. There’s a future
beauty queen who make sure she have the latest style since her mom owns a
beauty salon. One of the girls is a
magazine model who has the prettiest face among them. Another one who loves to
recite bad words. There’s also a member who always take care of her eyes since
she have double eyelids. They also have a girl who loves to fight using sticks
but also want to be a writer. And lastly, they have the newest girl that enters
the group and also the protagonist of the story, who came from the country
side. They call themselves Sunny.
They spent a
lot of times together. Just like other normal groups. They also have some
misunderstanding however they were never apart. Yet, it will never be an
interesting story if there are no hardships that will topple them. Cliché as it may seem but for every good
story, there’s a tragedy. When they celebrate their school festival,
unfortunately the newest member got into trouble and the leader rescued her.
The other girls were also there. The girl who has the prettiest face suddenly
appeared on the back of the antagonist and was accidentally [purposely] slashed
by piece of glass on her face.
Everyone was
devastated. All of them shed tears.
After 25
years, destiny led them to each other. The country girl who is currently happy
with her own family met the leader that is in the hospital fighting with
cancer. She tried to search for their
friends together with the girl who loves her eyelids that is now working for an
insurance company. They also found the girl who loves to swear and now a
housewife that talk like a fine lady. They continue the search. They meet again
the girl who wants to be a writer. Unfortunately, she is jobless and is taking
care of her husband’s family. They also found the beauty queen who unluckily
lost their fortune and is working now on a bar.
The leader
who doesn’t have much time to live, still wants to see the girl that was most
affected [victim] of the incident happened during their school festival. They
searched until the leader lost her life. They went to the second day of the
funeral. Only the five of them. They
still try to wait for the seventh girl. Then suddenly the personal lawyer of
the leader came. It was revealed that the leader has a will. She was rich. She
assigned a new leader, she gave job to the jobless, and she provided home for
the homeless and made sure all of them will be taken care of. From there and
then, I know she is still a leader till the end who takes care of her friends.
At the end of the story, while everybody is dancing the moves they’ve
choreographed during high school, the last girl came. The girl who should have
a scar on her left face is standing beautifully before them. XOXO.
It might be
a very nice story which became unexciting since I’m the one narrating it, but I
swear I cried a river while and after watching it. I miss all my high school
friends. :)
