Is it for you?

Who'll love it
If you count yourself among people who like their stories with a little heart-flutter and anyone who likes a world with its own rules, this one's for you. Best on a quiet night when you're in the mood to feel something.
The mood
Warm and romantic, feel-good.
The pace
Lively and easy to follow, at 1 hr 43 min.
What might put you off
  • No age rating on record, so check it first for young kids.
  • It's in another language, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
  • Skip it if you need something light and fast tonight.

Rosalie rides the MRT everyday and she becomes infatuated with the handsome man on the billboard. She talks to his picture intently every day until to her surprise the image comes to life. At the same time she meets MRT driver Eric who she finds agreeable. Will she go for her dream or wake up to reality?
