I love this movie alot. Jo Seung Woo was one of my all favourite korean actors. He is very good in his previous movies like {H}, {The classics} and now {Marathon}. The movie is very emotional to see the strong love between an Cho Won and his mum. There are several scenes that is very powerful and gives myself a very strong impression that makes me watch the movie again. One scene in particular when his coach grabs Cho Won in his hand and guide him to run. When Cho Won look at his coach holding his hand and the way Cho Won looks at his coach. I am very touched by that. Cause I know autistic people dont really show their emotion and dont really communicate well with people. that look from Cho Won's eyes makes me feel emotional and speechless. Subsequently, Cho Won automatically offered and shared the bottle of water with his coach is another scene that is as touching as ever. Not a word is spoken between the two of them in that scene. But my eyes are already tearing when I see that scene.

The most emotional part of the movie is the section when Cho Won ran in his imagination the part where he ran in the serengeti. He is able to run in a dream land with his favourite animal zebra running along with him. I cried so much in that scene. Many people in their life never gets to achieve their goals. Some people have been living in this world without a dream . I am so happy Cho Won achieved his dream and he win big in the marathon.

Jo Seung Woo is a v good professional actor that I can see him put so much effort in preparing and acting this role. I seriously dont think someone else can do the role better than him. Thank you for uploading the movie. I love the movie so much that I even bought a copy of DVD . highly recommended!
