My Sassy Girl

I caught My Sassy Girl last evening, courtesy of PW who had free tics. It's supposed to be a romantic comedy but I don't remember laughing much. The plot was rather predictable - I could guess what Jordan's "break up" story was about by midway of the show. I've heard from friends that the original Korean version was better but I haven't seen it so I cannot comment. But there are some memorable quotes from the movie:

"Destiny is the bridge you build to the one you love."

"If we never see each other again, and one day, you feel a certain presence beside you... that would be me, loving you wherever I am."

"We have to stay alive, because we have to see how the story ends."

I'm not quite sure. Is destiny something we can change? Isn't it supposed to be pre-determined? Building that bridge may change the process of reaching the end but can it change the end which has been pre-determined? Or should I have the courage to believe that we can change our destinies?

I find the part where Charlie and Jordan missed each other in the train particularly thought-provoking. Charlie said something like, "I know what you're thinking. We're meant to be separated."
