It's basically a love story between step-siblings as they turn into 'coming of age' and became aware with their feelings...

It started off with a cute beginning of a young man working in the market, happily announcing to everyone that his cute little sister would be coming over to town to study high school.

Then the show flashed back when they were still kids who lived separately with their individual broken family. The boy's father left his mom & him at a young age and earn money by singing at a bar. The girl's father is a saxophone player in the bar and he always left his daughter at the bar too. So by chance the little boy discovered the little girl who kept running & running so the boy was chasing behind and the girl feel down in an accident.

For some miraculous reasons, both individual parents went to hospital and it was there that the boy's mom told him that the little girl is going to be his sister and asked him to take good care of her. Like huh? I'm quite taken aback by the sudden announcement cos it didn't show the individual parents met and fell in love and decided to be with each other, bringing their own children to the picture?

So a family was 4 seemed like a happy ending? But one day the father just disappeared from the family taking away his saxophone, leaving the mom having to take care of 2 kids. Unknown to the kids, she was suffering from some illness and died shortly. So 2 poor elementary school kids took a sea journey to some deserted place to look for the boy's grandma who took them in....

There was a time jump in between again. It didn't show how little boy was separate from girl in between. It just showed the little boy grew up to be a young man running errand and deliver goods in the market and happening announcing to everyone that his little sister would be coming to his town to study high school, that's all.



So the little girl returned to live with her brother. At the initial stage, the guy couldn't quite get used to the fact that her sister has grown up to be a beautiful young woman. Anyway, the guy is supposed to be 21 in the show and has a steady girlfriend who's older than him and his sister is 17. So the girl was actually jealous that his brother has a girlfriend.

Nonetheless, it showed how special this brother/sister relationship was. Probably it has developed something further?

So the girl realised her feelings for him was more than sibling relationship but the guy kept insisting she's always his sister. The girl couldn't take it living with the guy under the same roof anymore and decided to move away and live alone.

There was a typhoon one night, heavy rain, big wind, swaying trees, flying newspapers or anything on the streets and the windows of the girl's apartment was smashed from the falling branch of a tree and things were flying around her house. Just when she was feeling so helpless, there was a furious knock on her door and it turned out to be her dear Ni-Ni (Onichan) who helped her out the mess.

But at the same time he had been sick (probably inherited from his mom who passed away?) and was admitted to the hospital and it turned out he died and passed away. The girl was devastated... But why did he pass away so suddenly again?

So the movie ended with the funeral for the guy. Girl facing towards the sea and shouted & cried for her dying brother, the one she love most. She is now left with her grandma. After crying her heart out, she went back to the funeral place and there was a parcel delivered by postman. When she opened it, it was a kimono sent by her beloved brother just before he died as a birthday present for her. She cried even harder...

And the movie ended like that and showed photos that was taken when they were young till they grew up and the last picture was of her taking a studio shot of that kimono. Awww....

While it was quite sweet but I'm not really sure what was the objective the movie though.... good look cast yet. But storyline seemed a bit weak though with people dying in the movie... it's like, so, and then?
