Four years after the cellphone app Joalarm was created, people commonly use Joalarm version 2.0. The updated app has new functions to see 2 lists: one is for persons that like you and the other is for persons that you will like. Due to the new version of Joalarm, a small change happens between Jo-Jo (Kim So-Hyun)

and Hye-Young (Jung Ga-Ram).

Jo-Jo is on the list for people that will like you for Hye-Young’s Joalarm. Hye-Young is happy about that. Sun-Oh (Song Kang) left Jo-Jo because his Joalarm didn’t ring when Jo-Jo was near him. He believed Jojo didn’t like him, but he still can’t wipe out the thought that Jo-Jo might still like him.

Lee Chae-Rok learned that he has a talent for ballet, but, after pursuing ballet, he barely has contact with his father and he has a hard time supporting himself financially. Going through hard times, his desire for ballet fades away. At this time, Sim Deok-Chool appears in front of him.

A

tender and sweeping story about what roots us, Minari follows a Korean-American family that moves to an Arkansas farm in search of their own American Dream.

The family home changes completely

with the arrival of their sly, foul-mouthed, but incredibly loving grandmother. Amidst the instability and challenges of this new life in the rugged Ozarks, Minari shows the undeniable resilience of family and what really makes a home.

Slow City

Cheongsando

Cheongsando Island, part of Dadohaehaesang National Park, is located about 19 kilometers south of Wando in Jeollanam-do. Cheongsando Island was designated as the first Asian “Slow City” and is home to the world’s first “Slow Road” as recognized

by Cittaslow International, an organization aimed at promoting cities that preserve traditions and culture within a natural environment. With the arrival of spring, yellow canola flowers grow abundantly on the island and their fragrance fills the air. With clear blue skies, turquoise sea, and bright yellow flowers, the island remains a favorite springtime filming location for movies, dramas and TV commercials.
