That was.. unexpected! After reading the synopsis (I hadn't read the true story of Park Kyung-won by then), I expected the heroic saga of a woman triumphing in a male-dominated society. Perhaps she did, but not in the way I was looking forward to.
Story: It is based on the true story of the first Korean female civilian pilot Park Kyung-won. To achieve her dream of becoming a pilot, she travels to Japan and enrolls in an aviation school there. "At 10:35 AM on of 7 August 1933, she took off in her Salmson 2A2 biplane, named the Blue Swallow, from Tokyo's Haneda Airport on one such flight to Manchuria; she crashed 42 minutes later near Hakone, Kanagawa and died." - Wikipedia
Now for what the directors/writers did. They push in a melo romantic thread in the form of a Korean exchange student in Japan, later an officer in the met department. If I say anymore, I'll be dishing out spoilers - so watch the conclusion yourself. Apart from this, the story kinda follows the facts.
Acting/Cast: Not a fan of any of the actors here, but I think they did a decent job. Frankly, I expected more glamour from the Koreans - but well, maybe this was for the best.
Music: Nothing much to say about - just a few background scores.
Rewatch: Don't think I'm going to, but you never know.
Concluding Thoughts: Go with no expectations and you might be pleasantly surprised.
