Beautiful story with amazing performance of the child actress

"You're So Precious To Me", also known as "My Lovely Angel", is a movie that tells a beautiful story of a relationship between a failed business owner and a blind and deaf 7-year-old girl. The girl is the daughter of one of his female staff who had died in an accident (most of his staff are mainly female anyway, I guess it's due to the nature of the business, which was not explored in depth). When he came to the staff's apartment to try to recover the deceased staff's debt, he encountered the girl.

To the apartment's landlord, he pretended to be the girl's dad so he could act as her guardian and recover the deposit for the apartment. He moved in and while initially he was indifferent towards the girl, eventually he had to take care of her and that's where the bonding started. When he found out that the bank would confiscate the apartment (including the deposit), he took the girl to a countryside town to find an aunt who was in debt with the girl's deceased mom to see if he could recover the money.

They met a nice family of watermelon farmers (despite having to steal one of their watermelons at first and getting caught by the CCTV, lol). He couldn't find the "aunt" since she might be just a scammer. His creditor managed to find him and demand him to pay off all the debts. He tried to return the girl to her biological father but the father didn't want to take her. Deciding that it would be better for the girl to live under the social services' care instead of staying with her, he brought the girl to an orphanage, although in the end, he changed his mind.

The acting performance of the actor Jin Goo and especially the child actress Jung Seo Yeon is amazing. Without even talking, the child actress can portray a blind and deaf girl perfectly using her body gestures and especially her facial expressions. It's amazing considering that the child actress was only 6-7 years old during filming. With such a brilliant acting performance and her cute and adorable face, we can't help but cry when she cries, and smile when she smiles or laughs.

There are some minor plot holes in the story, but they are not too significant and are paid off by the stellar performance of the actor and the child actress. The build-up of their chemistry and bonding from just an indifferent guy who wants to recover money to a paternal father-daughter affection is heartwarming. The ending scene where the girl cried when he was gone (albeit for just a while) and when he came back to comfort her, and eventually told her (using the finger gestures language on her palm) that she's her dad now, made me cry.

I agree that the ending is indeed a bit too open, while it seems that he changed his mind and decided to take her, we do not know how he would be able to raise the girl eventually, considering that he doesn't have any money and has a lot of debts. Not too sure if it's being done to pave the way for a sequel.

Overall, a very touching and heartwarming movie. Highly recommended!
