I was watching the Korean movie, A Moment to Remember while I was putting the kids to sleep. It was a very touching love story that left me crying at the end. LOL! The story started very light in which the rich girl got attracted to a carpenter. The story didn't actually dwell on the fact that they belong to different 'status'. The got married and had a good marriage until... there were warning signs which points to some problem with the girl's memory. It started with forgetting simple things such as her wallet or drink. Until, she gets lost on her way home. She had herself checked and the doctor didn't give her dual diagnosis but diagnosed her with Alzheimer's. It's a rare case of Alzheimer's since it affected her at such a young age.
If we're familiar with Alzheimer's disease, its a disease with no cure that will eventually erase every memory left on the mind. So, a time will come in which the person will forget her past, present, her family and even herself. Back to the movie, their love was tested even with this tragic disease.
