My Brilliant Life

Drama117 min

Sixteen years after becoming parents as teenagers, a couple are raising a son with progeria, a rare genetic disorder that makes him age exponentially faster than other children. Song Hye-kyo and Gang Dong-won are the still-young parents, trying to keep an ordinary family life in place as their boy's body takes on the weight of old age. When he begins writing a book about how they met and fell in love, the story shifts between his voice and the history that brought them together, tying their early romance to a household shaped by illness, care, and time moving at the wrong speed.
