Book Introduction
Film critic Oh Dong-jin ★ Recommends actress Shin Hyun-bin!
A collection of famous movie lines by warm-hearted humanist storyteller director Yuk Sang-hyo.

Director Yuk Sang-hyo, who has a reputation as a storyteller who portrays humanity with a warm gaze through films such as “Hello? Hello!”, “My Special Brother”, and “3 Days of Vacation,” has published a collection of his favorite lines from the movies of his life.
This book, recommended by actress Shin Hyun-bin of "Hospital Playlist" and film critic Oh Dong-jin, contains 90 famous lines from movies selected by director Yuk Sang-hyo, along with a short essay by the director that adds to the emotion of the movie for each line.
Readers will be able to go beyond simply reading and transcribing good movie lines and feel like they are attending a GV of 90 movies with director Yuk Sang-hyo.

The art form that resonates with us as deeply as literary works is film.
Movies are a visual art form, so music and actors' performances often receive more attention, but ultimately, the only thing that remains in our hands with physical properties is the dialogue.
That's why many screenwriters and directors try hard to write good lines.
There are many criteria for good lines, but the lines we remember are usually those that encapsulate the theme of the movie.
Director Yuk Sang-hyo included lines from writers he has loved for a long time in this book, and wrote short essays about his thoughts on the films and lines, as well as what he wanted readers to know.
Director Yuk Sang-hyo's book, "A Daily Copy of Movie Lines That Comfort My Life," which contains 90 of his most memorable movie lines and comments, will remain in the readers' hearts the deepest among all the books he has ever read.

Into the book
You make me want to be a better person.
As Good As It Gets

When you fall in love with someone, your whole world changes for the better.
In that positive world, I want to belong as a good person.
I want to approach the good person I love as a good person myself.
True love and emotional connection transform and grow people.
In the film, a middle-aged novelist with arrogance and obsessive-compulsive disorder consistently uses aggressive language toward the woman he likes, and when she urges him to compliment her even just a little, he responds like this:
Could there be a better compliment? Could there be a more relatable confession of love?

Life is like a box of chocolates.
No one knows what to pick.
_Forrest Gump

No one can predict life.
I can't be sure.
No matter how elaborately you plan and prepare, no one can know what will happen.
Chocolates may contain expected goodies like almonds or peanuts, or they may contain sweet, honey-like good luck.
Or there may be an unexpected surprise, like whiskey.
That's why life is worth living.
All we have to do is grab the chocolate and enjoy it as best we can.
Don't hesitate to pick up chocolate because you're afraid of what might come out.
If you don't choose, you can't experience anything.
Challenge and experience, that's what life is all about.

A man who doesn't spend time with his family is not a real man.
_The Godfather

Masculinity is being redefined.
A man who spends a lot of time with his family is a real man.
People often think of a strong man as someone who is engrossed in work and spends time with friends outside, but a real man is a family man.
Even for the tough men of the mafia, family is the most basic unit of identity.
Loyalty to an organization is synonymous with devotion to family.
A man who abandons his family is the most cowardly and weak man.
A strong man is a family man.

You're no crazier than the average idiots roaming the streets outside the hospital.
One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest

Who defines insanity? In the Middle Ages, even denying God was considered insanity.
Normal and abnormal are always defined by those in power.
Power has labeled those forces and ideas that pose a threat as mentally ill and isolated them from society.
There is no universal objectivity in judging the human mind.
Everyone lives with their own depression, wounds, and delusions.
We cannot see them all as patients.
It is the world that is sick, not people.

Publisher's Review
It will remain in your memory for a long time
Let's take a look at the lines from the movie.

In these days when all kinds of stimuli shake our brains and hearts all day long, it is unusual and understandable that a book written by calmly sitting down and writing down good words one by one on paper is becoming a bestseller in bookstores.
Because people who are tired of flashy stimulation actually need tranquility.
So, the popularity of the manuscript is a place of refuge for the minds and spirits of modern people who are tired of extreme stimulation.

When we come home from work and people, we need something to soothe our tired hearts.
I'm anxious about the ticket prices that seem to have gone up without me knowing when, and I'm wasting the night searching for something to fill my heart among the abundance of content on OTT.
If you sit back and think about it, as children we had so much fun that we couldn't even keep up with just sketchbooks and colored pencils.

Now, let's open "A Line from a Movie That Comforts My Heart, One Cut a Day."
Director Yuk Sang-hyo, who has directed heartwarming and humanistic films, has selected 90 famous lines from films and includes the director's comments on them.
Now, let's read carefully the lines from the movies I've seen and the movies I like.
Let's also read director Yuk Sang-hyo's comments below.
Now, let's write slowly, one letter at a time, in the space on the right.
With each and every word of comforting words, we will be able to experience our hearts becoming calm and our minds becoming clear.

“I hope you will remember this for a long time by writing it down firmly by hand.”
In the 'Preface'

This book divides lines from 90 movies into six keywords: love, life, family, time, passion, and humanity.
Chapter 1, “Love and Relationships,” features films that allow readers to think deeply about love, such as “Before Sunrise,” “Chungking Express,” and “Love Actually.” Chapter 2, “Life is a Series of Choices,” features films that can be helpful at crossroads in life, such as “The Shawshank Redemption” and “Kung Fu Panda.”
Chapter 3, 'Growing Up in Family', selected movies that help us grow with the keyword of family, such as 'The Lion King' and 'Marriage Story'. Chapter 4, 'Things that we remember even as time passes', included lines from movies like 'Notting Hill' and 'About Time' that talk about moments that we want to hold on to as time passes.
Chapter 5, “Challenge with Passion,” features passionate films like “Billy Elliot” and “Whiplash,” and the final chapter, “What is Human?” features films that allow us to reflect on what we truly need.

Depending on the topic of each chapter, readers can choose which movie lines to transcribe to suit their mood that day.
Plus, the hashtags at the bottom of the page break down each movie line into smaller chunks, helping you delve a little deeper into your mood and state of mind today.
When you feel lonely and helpless, when you want to give your mind a moment to breathe, copying down famous lines from good movies is as much a moment as watching a good movie to take care of your mind.
