the movie is a long one, the actors awesome, I did cat nap a bit. but the story wow, I did watch it all, and the recipe, I can’t describe what I felt , this can be a tear jerker, and yeah some will say its boring, but if you just sit , watch, finish, you will get the"recipe" at the end. really heart warming, I really think some will like this one, the subbers were fantastic in this as well. this is one of the older movies.I don’t want to give anything away so no spoilers here, one thing I liked the reporter investigated why was the recipe so impressive, and he found the answer. thats all the “spoiler” I will give!!

I loved this film too, and with my team I translated it into Italian and Greek last year. https://www.viki.com/videos/1084402v-the-recipe
Here is the synopsis on the film page:
Choi Yu Jin (Ryu Seung Ryong) is a television reporter who hears about the final moments of a notorious killer on death row that was not covered in the press. As he was being executed, the killer said he wanted to taste the bean paste stew he had on the day that he was captured. So amazing was this stew that he was spellbound and didn’t even notice that he was being captured. Trying to track down this amazing bean paste stew leads Yu Jin to mysterious woman named Jang Hye Jin (Lee Yo Won), who made the soup. Although the woman seems to have disappeared without a trace, Yu Jin can’t let go of the story. What light could Park Min (Jo Sung Ha) and Kim Hyun Soo (Lee Dong Wook) shed on the tragic life of Hye Jin? And will Yu Jin be able to get the story he worked so hard to uncover about the most unbelievable bowl of bean paste soup? “The Recipe” is a 2010 South Korean film directed by Lee Seo Goon (Amy Lee).
