Both films are about pictures, family, true connections, unconditional love and granddaughters. Contradicting “blood is thicker than water” as both grand daughters are not really related to their halmonis by blood. Also has similar endings and settings.
A movie about the bond between a granddaughter and her grandmother. The story is very moving: a grandmother is raising her little granddaughter alone, after her son died and her daughter in law ran away. They do seem very happy with each other, until the grandchild goes missing. Twelve years later, she comes back, after facing hardships in Seoul, and reunites with her grandmother that hadn't stopped looking for her.
both movies have an elderly main character, the city has a warm feel - everybody seems to know eachother, they seem generally liked, made me cry sjsb and there is a certain plotpoint that gets introduced later that is the same in both movies. Both movies also feauture a sm idol in a side role. But tbh the side characters they portray are very useless and could have been cut but we stan Minho and Chanyeol anyway
