Song Joong-ki and Park Bo-young Sweet Teenage Romance Fantasy in Werewolf Boy
Werewolf Boy is a movie from 2012 that became the most successful romantic-mellow movie of all time. Lee Joong-ki and Park Bo-young starred in the movie. It was predicted to be a huge box office movie from the day of its premiere. It sold 341,475 tickets on the premiere day, and sold a total of more than 7 million tickets overall. Kim Sun-yi, a senior Korean immigrant in the United States received an inquiry about the possibility of selling her family house in the rural area of South Korea. She returned to Korea and brought along her granddaughter, Eun-joo, to check on her house in the country. Flashback to her teenage years, young Sun-yi (performed by Park Bo-young) moved from Seoul to a house in countryside to care for her deteriorating health. Her mother, her younger sister, and she lived in a secluded area with no neighbors. One day, she found an unknown werewolf-boy (performed by Song Joong-ki) and her mother brought him home, thinking that the boy was probably among the orphan children of war. Sun-yi’s mother called him Chul-soo. Though, initially, he behaves like an animal, Sun-yi tamed him and taught him table manners. Soon, they became good friends and fell in love with each other. Their landlord, Ji-tae (performed by Yoo Yeon-seok), had feelings for Sun-yi and constantly approached her. Cheol-su got into a fight with Ji-tae, causing the villagers to hunt for him. To avoid further problems, Sun-yi decided to leave him. She left a note saying that she would return for him in the future.
Being a feral boy without any social interaction, Chul-su grew up with his animal instinct. He ate any food ferociously upon seeing it. During their first dinner together as a family, Chul-su made a huge mess on the dinner table. He ate aggressively, without any table manners. Due to his animal instinct during dinner, Sun-yi lost her appetite and went to her room. Sun-yi realized that she had to teach him to behave in front of food, and only eat when she told him to eat. She trained him hard, and he even bit her. After a strict training, she was able to restrain his appetite and control his attitude. Sun-yi stroked Chul-su’s head as a reward for listening to her instructions. It was dinnertime and it was the right time to apply her training at the table. Her family was surprised when Chul-su listened to every instruction. They were in awe and at loss of words when seeing Chul-su eating slowly and calmly. From that moment on, Chul-su became a true family member.
Sun-yi was teaching Chul-su when he got distracted by a guitar in a corner of their house. Since he paid no attention to her lesson, Sun-yi picked up the guitar and sat in front of Chul-su. She said that it has been a long time since the last time she played guitar. She played the guitar and sang a beautiful song while Chul-su sat in awe in front of her. As soon as Sun-yi finished her song, Chul-su approached and stroked her head gently, as if he were complimenting her performance. It was a very romantic moment for both of them. Perhaps, it was the moment when they started to develop romantic feeling to each other.
When her mother went to the market and her brother and sister went to school, Sun-yi decided to play with Chul-su. She dressed him in traditional Korean dress, hanbok. As if it wasn’t enough, she also put makeup on his face. She also made beard and moustache on her own face. It is as if Chul-su was a woman and Sun-yi was a man. Suddenly, her mother returned and went straight to the bathroom. Not so long after, her younger brother and sister returned from school along with their neighbor. In an instant, their house was filled many people. Feeling embarrassed because she put makeup on him and dressed him in a Hanbok, Sun-yi and Chul-su hid behind her mother’s clothes. Her younger sister noticed Chul-su when they were eating steamed sweet potatoes and approached him. Because the rest of the family noticed them, Sun-yi quickly headed to her room and made a silly excuse that she wasn’t feeling well. The entire family was shocked upon seeing their funny faces and, especially, Chul-su’s clothes.
On the night after returning to her old house, old Kim Sun-yi had dinner with her granddaughter, Eun Joo. Suddenly, she recognized a glimpse of a familiar shape passing by at the side entrance. She carefully went that direction and headed to the room where Chul-su used to sleep. She found Chul-su sitting on his bed and waiting for her. His face hadn’t changed at all, and he stayed young. Later, Chul-su handed her the handwritten letter that she left for him. He had been waiting for her all this time. Sun-yi wept and slowly approached him. They hugged each other and broke down in tears. She apologized for leaving him behind and forgettingt about him.
