One Fine Spring Day (Korean: 봄날은 간다) is a South Korean feature film released by Sidus, Shochiku and Applause Films in 2001. Directed by Hur Jin-ho (of Christmas in August), the film is a portrait of a love affair - from its blossoming in spring, to its decline as the years pass.

Plot

Sound engineer Sang-woo meets female radio DJ Eun-soo as they work together on a project capturing sounds from nature. They succeed in capturing various sounds and are attracted to one another. They start a relationship, but Sang-woo's intensifying passion reminds Eun-soo of her tragic past. She knows only too well how passion can vanish like a sound, and how love always ends.^{[citation needed]}

Popular culture

The character Eun-soo, portrayed by Lee Young-ae was the first to say the phrase "Do you want to eat ramyeon?", which later grew to exemplify a pick-up line meaning, "Do you want to sleep with me?". It was followed by a scene with broken hearted Sang-woo (Yoo Ji-tae), being offered soju with his ramyeon by his father.^[2]
