Set in the 1980s, the film A Hundred Memories tells the story of the close friendship between Go Young Rye (Kim Da Mi) and Seo Jong Hee (Shin Ye Eun) - two employees at Cheong A transport company and their first love - Han Jae pil (Heo Nam Joon).
The film is 12 episodes long and officially ended airing on the evening of October 19. According to Nielsen Korea, the final episode of the show achieved a viewership rating of 8.1% - the highest since its premiere. However, the film's content continued to receive a series of controversies.
According to the film's development, Young Rye and Jong Hee officially cleared up all misunderstandings after Young Rye took over from Jong Hee. When arriving at Young Rye's room, Jong Hee realized that her best friend was still preserving photos of their past and burst into tears. Meanwhile, after 2 weeks in the resuscitation room at the hospital, Young Rye finally woke up.
The film ended with a scene 1 year after Jong Hee was crowned Miss Korea. She lives happily, more actively and is busy with her new job. Meanwhile, Young Rye has also made her dream of going to university come true thanks to Jong Hee's scholarship.
At Sang Cheol and Jeong Bun's wedding, Jong Hee and Young Sik ( her best friend's brother) revealed the details of dating, while Jae pil also gave Young Rye a necklace and confided that he would propose to her after she finished college.
Although "A hundred Slices of Memories" ended happily for the characters and the friendship of the main couple, they became close again. However, the audience still thinks that this is an overly forced ending, when before that, the characters' personalities had almost completely changed.
For example, Jong Hee was sent from a cheerful girl, willing to sacrifice because her best friend became jealous and more than happy with her friend; while Young Rye 7 years ago decided to hide her unrequited love, but after 7 years, when Jong Hee returned, she wanted to protect her love.
On the other hand, the lackluster male lead and the reason for the main couple's friendship shaking is also a minus point. The audience also believes that A hundred Slices of Memories has wasted the acting of Kim Da Mi and Shin Ye Eun and hopes that the two actresses will reunite in a film with more logical and attractive content.
