Movie Review ALTERNATIVE TITLE: De-i-ji MOVIE YEAR: 2006 DIRECTOR: Andrew Lau WRITING CREDITS: Felix Chong GENRE: Drama CAST: Jeon Ji-hyeon, Jeong Woo-seong, Lee Seong-jae COUNTRY: South Korea, Hong Kong RUNTIME: 110 min Daisy (데이지) is a Korean movie directed by Hong Kong filmmaker Andrew Lau Wai Keung of the Infernal Affairs series, and starring Jeon Ji-hyun (My Sassy Girl, Il Mare), Jung Woo-sung (A Moment to Remember), John Tai-wai Chiang , Lee Sung-jae (Public Enemy), and Cheon Ho-jin (The Big Swindle).” Daisy is an urban melodrama about Hye-Young (Ji-hyun), a young struggling art painter who mistakenly fell in love with an Interpol police detective Jeong-Woo (Sung-jae). She thought that he is the person who sends daisies to her everyday. Jeong-Woo eventually found out the real daisy guy: Park-Yi (Woo-Sung), who happens to be a professional hitman who admired Hye-Young ever since he saw her painting daisies in the countryside. However, a mishap happened one day. (I didn’t expect her to become that way). Story continues to unfold and in the end, this movie shows the what one can do for his/her loved ones. This movie was shot entirely in The Netherlands, for the most part in the capital of Amsterdam, Haarlem and Epen. Another touching act from Ji-hyun after My Sassy Girl. I think it’s a nice movie although some reviews mentioned that the director ought to shoot a better movie. Oh ya, Woo-Sung does speak mandarin in this movie.
