Jimmy Lin plays the role of a ex-soldier, now in a top parachute club and Jang Nara plays the role of a wealthy man's only daughter. Jang Nara is quite stubborn, not necessarily hot-headed and she's very nice, but she wants to get to know more about what happens outside the world her Dad has created for her. Jimmy Lin on the other hand, is a badass guy, was once a soldier, highly experience, loves living on the edge and DARN!!!!! He was really hot in this movie!!!!
The two of them meet, while Jimmy was doing a test flight with a parachute he built. He saw Jang Nara's character up a mountain and he thought she was about to commit suicide and then......... Whereas she has a boyfriend already, a guy her Dad highly delights in. A lot of things happened in between, a bet was even made.
I really love the sequence of each scenes in FWY. If you don't watch it properly you might not get it, because the movie goes back and forth from what happened 6 months ago, to what happened 6 months later, then back to what happened 12 months ago. I loved that, it made me focus the more.
The soundtrack was also good. How on earth did I forget the kiss hehehe, that was HOT!!! FWY is a light and fun drama, it's something you did watch to get relieved from stress or whatever.

A Light and Fluffy Bag of Air
If I had to describe this 1 hour and 36 minute long movie, I would describe it as a light and fluffy bag of air. It's light and fluffy because the story has no major tension to it. It won't make you cry or cause your heart to start pounding, rather it's just a feel good movie. However at the same time, this movie is also a bag of air because the plot has almost no substance to it at all. There is no deep character development, underlying social commentary or hidden plot twists so to speak of. Although there was a slight attempt to add some dramatic twist to the story that I won't spoil, it was all quite predictable .I feel as if, the premise had enough to it that could have been fleshed out into a full out 16 hour-long episode drama. Yet instead, because its condensed into an hour and a half movie, it became a forgettable experience with undeveloped characters and a bare-bone story-line. In essence, the story can be summarized as:
-- person A meets person B in a bizarre accident
-- they fall in love and do lovey stuff together
-- the end
While there are some additional superficial irrelevant drama, which you can probably guess at by looking at the plot summary under the description,they took minimal screen time and were quit expected.
Similar to the bland plot, I would say everything else is pretty much average. From the cinematography to the set and costume design to the music, it was nothing groundbreaking. While none of it was bad per se, neither did they leave me amazed at how amazing it was.
Speaking of costume design, it really annoyed me how Jang Na Ra's character was supposed to be a rich 2nd generation girl (富二代 as they call it in Chinese), yet she wore crappy ripped jeans and a leather jacket for half the movie. Maybe I'm missing something and this was the haute couture of 2012, yet I highly doubt it and I have difficulty imagining a rich girl having such a sense of style.
However all this being said, despite the lack of any substance what so ever, I quite enjoyed the movie with all it's cheesiness and light tension-less story. I especially enjoyed hearing Jang Na Ra's un-dubbed mandarin voice. While she definitely seemed to have some troubles with the proper tones, it was really cute hearing her original voice rather than some random voice over.
In the end, "Flying with You" is not some great masterpiece that I will be recommending as a must-watch to all my friends. In many ways it's a very forgettable story mediocre in everything. In fact, I only watched it because I'm a Jang Na Ra fan and I crave anything with her in it. However, at the same time, it's light and fluffy story and relatively short length makes it an ideal movie that I will probably re-watch now and then whenever I need a stress reliever or as a palette cleanser from more heavy dramas.
