“Past Lives… I will forever miss” invites viewers to reflect on their past loves and the ones that got away. The film poses the timeless question that has haunted Hae Sung for over two decades: “If you had never left Seoul, could we have stayed together? Should we have gotten married?” This dilemma arises from the moment Nora, moved by her family, departed for America at the age of 12.
Although childhood love often fades with time, Hae Sung and Nora have held onto a special place for each other in their hearts. Against all odds, fate reunites them after two decades, when Hae Sung decides to travel to New York to see Nora and simply says, “I just want to see you again.” Together for a week, they revisit cherished memories of their sweet childhood and confront the trials of fate, love, and life choices.
The concept of “In-Yun”: A belief in destined connections
The Korean word “In-Yun,” which can be translated to “fate” or “destiny” in Thai, holds great significance in this narrative. Korean culture suggests that when two individuals meet and walk together, it is not merely a coincidence but rather a result of a deep connection. It is believed that their bond extends across lifetimes, and they are destined to meet again in their present lives. Some couples are even said to be married in this life due to the profound In-Yun ties formed over 8,000 lifetimes, spanning nations and generations. This perpetual cycle of love and fulfillment truly sets them apart.
