"Lily", also known as "Love in Another World" stars Kim Hee-sun (played as Kang Ji-hee), Song Seung-hyun (played as Kim Sung-ho) and Kim Hyun-joo (played as Yoon Soo-jin). It was probably filmed in 1998

The general content of the story: The title of the film ends, and the subtitles print a time - "December 24, 1995"

Young Kim Sung-hoo got out of the taxi. , hurriedly entered a hotel, looking no different from other men rushing for a date on Christmas Eve. However, the atmosphere in the hotel was unexpectedly tense. The elevator had been commandeered by the police and no one was allowed to go upstairs because gangsters appeared in the rooftop cafe and took a woman hostage. Jin Chenghu rushed up and saw the desperate Zhi Ji and the gangster holding him hostage. The thin man had the same despair on his face. Just a short distance away, Jin Chenghu watched as the woman he was about to propose to was dragged out of the broken window by the gangster and fell onto the busy street on Christmas Eve. He stayed where he was, and the police officer next to him used the walkie-talkie to report without any scruple: "Yes, they are all dead, two people, a man and a woman." Jin Chenghu didn't like this, he didn't like others to take away his beloved Zhi Ji and the gangster talked so casually...

Three years have passed, and the time is January 23, 1998.

Jin Chenghu was thinking about everything in the taxi. In his hand was the silver pendant that he had not had time to give away three years ago. He opened it and found the photo that had become a posthumous photo. His eyes moved to the window, and then his expression changed. Then he got out of the taxi and got on a tram like a sleepwalker. After a long time, he turned around and took a look. Yes, that's right, she was there. The woman in white clothes, he saw with his own eyes the woman who fell to her death in the hotel three years ago. There are still tears on her face. Is it because of the bitterness of this life or the pain of the previous life?

There was no conversation, no acknowledgment, just memories.

The first thing I remember is a bouquet of lilies.

Yes, there is always a bouquet of lilies on the company's own desk. I heard a colleague talk about a nearby flower shop, and I guessed it was delivered there, but why, who ordered it, and when will it be delivered?

At night, Cheng Hu came to the flower shop and saw a woman in white knitting a sweater there. He made an excuse at random, saying that he wanted to buy flowers for the girl, and the girl chose lilies for him. It's her. Cheng Hu is relieved and declares that he actually doesn't have a girlfriend. The woman seemed oblivious and just helped him deal with the bouquet mechanically. At this time, the phone rang. She was so busy that she called a girl who had just walked in to help him. The girl's name seemed to be Xiuzhen? It doesn't matter, it's not important anyway. Jin Chenghu just remembered taking a business card from the business card box, and the name on the business card was Kang Ji-hee.

Walking out of the flower shop, Jin Chenghu thought, I fell in love with a woman named Jiang Zhiji.

Another day, Jin Chenghu called the flower shop and finally mentioned the mysterious bouquet he received every day.

"Do you feel it is a burden to you?"

"No, of course not. ...By the way, do you know what the lily represents?"

"Represents purity."

A piece of paper was included in the bouquet sent the next day, which said - "Don't have any burden, this is my honor."

Jin Chenghu drew a portrait of Ji Ji based on his own memory. Find a processing factory and ask them to help make a silver pendant with a miniature portrait of her inside.

By seven o'clock in the evening, he was going to take a plane for a business trip. So he came to the flower shop with a little hope, and all he saw was the girl named Xiuzhen - "So you are the only one." The girl seemed to have something to say to him, maybe she wanted to persuade him not to be too emotionally involved. He didn't want to hear it, so he said goodbye and left. In the mailbox outside the door, he left a note asking Zhiji to meet in the park at four o'clock in the afternoon. He thought that when she came in from outside, she would always check the mailbox.

It was past four o'clock and no one came to the park, but snow began to fall in the sky.

Finally, he left, leaving behind a trail of snow and a trail of footprints.

As the taxi passed by on the street, there seemed to be a woman running towards the park, but Cheng Hu didn't see it.

Before leaving Seoul, he made one last phone call: "I wanted to say I love you before I left. I will go back to Seoul the day after tomorrow. Let's meet at seven o'clock in the evening. I know the coffee at Laudy Hotel "The hall? It's right there. Goodbye, Miss Zhiji."

When the date came, Chenghu held the finished silver pendant in his hand, and even the taxi driver could tell that he was. Go on a date.

This day was Christmas Eve, there was an extra traffic jam, and it rained.

The elevator cannot be used. The place has been placed under martial law because of a hostage-taking incident.

Then there is everything we see in the opening scene, the police, the gangsters, her, the sound of breaking glass, and the last line is what the gangster said -

"It's time to end! Come on! Come on, you bastards..."

They fell together, leaving him to go home alone.

After returning home, he opened the mail he received and saw the familiar card from the florist, which read:

"It's a pleasure to meet you. I will keep you in my heart for the rest of my life." "

She, the woman who had just died, used the word "life" so lightly.

This is the so-called memory, using disguised reality to tempt you to follow her towards illusion.

Jin Chenghu came to the Lawdy Hotel in a trance, burned the Christmas cards that he had kept in the cafe, and then walked alone into the elevator that had been requisitioned and prohibited him from entering. He couldn't help but make a wish, let me go back there, let me go back!

The elevator rose rapidly, the indicator lights changed mysteriously, and finally the elevator opened and he stepped out. Everything around him seemed to be no different.

However, when he came to the street, there were no cigarettes he wanted to buy at the cigarette stall, and the boss said he had never heard of this brand. Then when he watched TV, the person who appeared on the news surrounded by officials turned out to be The head of state who has stepped down. The time printed on the newspaper that left the factory that day was "December 23, 1995."

Understand, everything is as he wished, it has returned to the past, the sea has returned to the mulberry field.

"This time I can save Miss Zhiji."

There was no one in the flower shop. The neighbor said that the girl from the flower shop had gone to the swimming pool. He came to the swimming pool and shouted Zhiji's name at the top of his lungs. Finally, someone told him that the flower shop lady was taking a shower there.

He walked over and saw that the woman in a swimsuit was not the Jiang Zhiji he was looking for, but Yin Xiuzhen whom he had seen in the flower shop.

She didn't ask so many questions, she just took Jin Chenghu to the door of Jiang Zhiji's house with peace of mind. The neighbor said that Zhiji might not have gone far when she went out, so she sat down and waited with him. Without being wary or impatient, Xiu Zhen talked about Zhi Ji leisurely:

"She is very excited about the date tomorrow."

"I know she is going tomorrow I’ll see you at the coffee shop.”

The wind started to blow, and Jin Chenghu saw that Xiuzhen was cold, but she didn’t care about it and seemed very happy.

Cheng Hu sighed with emotion: "Miss Xiuzhen's boyfriend must be very happy."

From a distance, you can see Zhi Ji coming back. Cheng Hu is full of happiness and slowly gets up to greet her. go.

At this time, an unexpected thing happened, a car came quickly, and it was that face again, the face that Cheng Hu would never forget, Zhi Ji was kidnapped right in front of his eyes!

Despair enveloped Cheng Hu again. He felt weak and powerless. He did not believe that he could not stop it all by returning to the past.

Yin Xiuzhen was leaving, so she left her phone number and told him to call her if he had any news about Ji Ji - "Come on."

Jin Chenghu I am also disgusted with this woman. She seems to know many secrets but refuses to speak. Why did she hide everything, and what was she hiding?

There is still a chance, because there are still clues. He has recalled the newspaper report on the massacre at the Laudy Hotel that year. The suspect who resisted arrest was named Zheng Minyu. He found this person's address, but the iron door was locked and no one answered. Finally, he found Zheng Minyu's contact information. From an email, he called Zheng Minyu and told him that he wanted a batch of goods. Zheng Minyu agreed to meet with suspicion.

In a bar, Zheng Minyu appeared with two bodyguards. He immediately saw that Jin Chenghu was not a real gangster and had no business to discuss. Seeing that Zheng Minyu was about to withdraw, the weak Jin Chenghu suddenly launched an attack and started fighting with three people, from the bar to the street to the garage. Finally, he woke up in the hospital with bruises all over his body. It was already the morning of the next day.

The person taking care of him at the bedside was Yin Xiuzhen, and the doctor found her phone number on Jin Chenghu. Jin Chenghu refused to rest anymore, because today was the last moment. At seven o'clock in the evening, at the Lawdy Hotel, he was likely to lose the person he loved most again. Moreover, this loss must be a permanent loss.

Looking at Jin Chenghu’s stubborn departure, Yin Xiuzhen began to recall, and memories were also the biggest temptation for her.

Everything also started with a bouquet, but instead of lilies, it was roses. He bumped into her on the stairs of the company who came to deliver flowers. The roses scattered on the floor. He apologized and helped her clean them up. Yin Xiuzhen encountered the only love in her life in the worst plot of the story.

At the bus stop in the early morning, Yin Xiuzhen had been waiting shyly, watching Jin Chenghu running out of breath, before she got on the bus and said to the driver: "There is someone else, please wait a moment. "Then, she lowered her head and walked towards the depths of the car.

In the flower shop, she was knitting a sweater and told her friend Zhiji about this little bit of love. Zhiji couldn't get enough of it, and she smiled shyly:

"I'm sorry, that's all."

She didn't mention that she would make a special trip to his desk every morning A bouquet of lilies was placed on top. Only she and the company's security guard knew this secret.

Xiuzhen was going out to buy some food. She passed a man on the way out. She did not look back. If she did, she would definitely be stunned.

When she came back, she heard the phone ringing and Zhi Ji calling her - "Xiuzhen, come over and help this gentleman wrap the flowers."

She said mechanically He moved, not daring to look at Jin Chenghu in front of him. Don't dare.

After Jin Chenghu left, Xiuzhen told Zhiji in a low voice: "He is here and just bought lilies."

She was the one who saw the note that day, but it was a pity that it was too It was too late. When she ran to the park, Cheng Hu had already left, leaving two clear lines of footprints on the snow.

Xiuzhen stepped lightly on those two lines of footprints, as if she was about to wade through the water, as focused and affectionate as possible.

Because Cheng Hu has a long stride, she can only jump one by one, which is a bit difficult.

But those two lines of footprints quickly disappeared on the road. She didn’t know where they extended. She was a little lost in thought and couldn’t lift her legs. It seemed that the road to heaven had been cut off and there was a vast ocean in front of her.

Later, in the flower shop, Zhiji received a call. After answering the phone call halfway, she smiled and handed the phone to Xiuzhen. Xiuzhen heard Cheng Hu’s voice, he was calling at the airport. Cheng Hu didn't notice that there was a different person on the other end of the microphone.

"I wanted to say I love you before I left."

"..."

"I will go back to Seoul the day after tomorrow. We will go back to Seoul at 7 p.m. Let's meet. Do you know the cafe at Laudy's Hotel?

"Yes."

"I love you." ...I love you too."

"I know. Goodbye, Miss Zhiji."

"..."

Only then did Xiuzhen realize. I realized that I was just answering a call from someone else. She had just helped the man she loved deeply to set up a date with her girlfriend.

All she can do is to carefully fill out the Christmas card to Cheng Hu:

"It's a pleasure to meet you, and I will keep you in my heart for the rest of my life."

< p> She was thinking, would this be the last greeting card she would have the courage to send?

It was that Christmas Eve again. Jin Chenghu showed up here very early. He watched Zheng Minyu walk into the lobby and the elevator. He found the room that Zheng Minyu had booked. This place was completely controlled by the police. However, Jin Chenghu still managed to sneak into the room and put the pistol he found to the back of his head.

After a fight, it was the weak Jin Chenghu who had the upper hand, because he felt that he could not lose. If he lost, Ji Ji would suffer misfortune.

At this time, he was hit hard on the back of the head and passed out. Before he passed out, he struggled to turn his head and saw Zhi Ji holding a lamp in his hand.

This is the truth - Ji Ji never loved Kim Sung Ho, everything was a misunderstanding, she loved the desperado Jung Min Woo, and she was his woman.

The police showed up, and Zheng Minyu pretended to take hostages, took Zhiji out of the room, and retreated to the coffee shop.

Then there was the scene of the broken jade palace. No one committed murder, but someone died for love, and both died for love.

When Jin Chenghu woke up, he faced the truth and the nothingness behind the truth.

He staggered through the elevator. There was a woman in the elevator looking at him, and she said in a low voice: "Please wait a moment."

The closed elevator door After turning it on again, Jin Chenghu entered the elevator with a blank mind. The people around gradually emptied, leaving only the two of them.

He looked at her and the lilies in her arms. He gradually understood everything, and even understood why he wanted to go back to the past.

But the elevator dropped rapidly again, and it was dark. When everything returned to normal, there was no other person in the elevator except him.

Needless to say, it is three years later again, three years later irrevocably.

The final ending was a rainy day, and a figure under an umbrella caught his attention because the shoulder-length hair looked very much like Zhi Ji from before.

However, when Yiren looked back, what Jin Chenghu saw was Xiuzhen—she, who had always had short hair close to her ears, had also begun to grow long hair.

They met in the rain, in the rain of the real world.

Time, don’t go back, don’t reverse it, just walk with them slowly, as slowly as you can.
