If you loved My Girl and I, try Portrait of a Beauty
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share
Both films are directed by Jeon Yun-su, and they both carry the bittersweet, tender mood tags, and they sit in Drama / Romance territory. If that's the register that drew you to My Girl and I, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Portrait of a Beauty is
One imagines the pitch meeting involved someone saying, "like Yentl, but make it art." A young woman disguises herself as her dead brother to continue the family's court-painting business. It's a steamy costume drama that hits every note you expect.
