Why people love it

People revisit Always for the same reason it broke through in 2011: clear stakes, memorable faces, and a drama rhythm that doesn't stall in the middle. Song Il-gon keeps the ensemble pointed in one direction. The romance and drama blend is the engine: it lets the film shift registers without feeling like two different movies stitched together.
