Even If This Love Disappears from the World Tonight: Movie Review




Empty and superficial, leaning too heavy into a fantasy romance.
Even If This Love Disappears from the World Tonight is a Korean version of the Japanese love story where a teenage boy starts dating his classmate who has anterograde amnesia. Amnesia is overused in movies in general, but especially here where it is nothing more than a gimmick to frame their romance. It is extremely superficial with no analysis of her condition or how it fundamentally changes who she is every day.   2025

Directed by: Kim Hye-young

Screenplay by: Misaki Ichijo
