About Lethe's Love Song
Hi-won is a news reporter for a magazine. She runs into Min Seung-wu who was once her lover when she was a teacher. Hi-won is attracted by Seung-wu's charm but her parents do not approve of their relationship for his past of misfortune having grown up an orphan. She is proposed to marry Song Yun-sik whom she was fixed up by a matchmaker but that only assures her of her love for Seung-wu. Seung-wu decides to move to France for her sake and for his family, cherishing his memory of the time they spent together on the night of his farewell party. As he heads to the airport, she marries an ordinary man.
Directed by Jang Gil-su, Lethe's Love Song leans on a strong ensemble — Yoon Suk-hwa, Shin Seong-il, Kil Yong-woo — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 1987.
