Chirusoku no Natsu チルソクの夏 (Japan 2003)
"Chirusoku no Natsu" ("The Stars Converge"), directed by Kiyoshi Sasabe, tells the love story of Japanese girl, high school student Ikuko Endo ( Mizutani ) and her boyfriend, South Korean high school student An Daiho ( Junpei ), against the backdrop of Japanese bias against Koreans, who in turn harbor anti-Japanese feelings, and the situation in South Korea at that time.
They met in July, 1977, on the occasion of the High School Athletic Meeting for Friendship between Pusan (South Korea) and Shimonoseki,Yamaguchi Prefecture / Kyodo (Japan) being held in Pusan and made a promise to meet each other again in Shimonoseki after 1 year. Both of them, although faced with political and social obstacles, discrimination and prejudice stemming from a background of nationalistic sentiment in Korea and Japan at that time, managed to overcome these obstacles and fulfilled their promises.
One year later, in Shimonoseki, on the night of Tanabata, after the Athletic Meeting for Friendship, they both slip out of a party and walk through the Kanmon Pedestrian Tunnel. In the tunnel they saw a white line indicating the boundary between Yamaguchi Prefecture and Fukuoka Prefecture and they crossed over it...
Titlesong by singer-songwriter Iruka: "Nagori Yuki" (The Remaining Snow,Lingering Snow).
Iruka rerecorded the song in Korean and appears briefly in the movie as the high school teacher. Iruka was born in Tokyo. She formed a folk group while she was at Art University for Women in Japan. She made her solo debut as a singer in 1974. The following year, in 1975, she had her first huge hit with "Nagoriyuki" (Lingering Snow), now title song of Chirusoku no Natsu, which established Iruka as a well-known singer. In 1978, her first son was born, and she left the spotlight for 2 years while caring for him.
