Flipped Movie Review – We Never Really Talked
An emotional review of Flipped – a film that moves your heart
I just finished watching Flipped.
After paying about 1,000 won on the Wavve platform,
I spent an hour and a half watching it with a calm heart.
At first, I thought it was simply a film about two people falling in love.
However, the scene where they express their love only appears at the very end.
Until then, it was a long journey of discovering each other’s hearts.
The handsome and charming boy ‘Bryce’,
the quiet yet intensely passionate girl ‘Juli’.
I analyzed their personalities.
🎈 Juli’s Personality
- Blood Type: O
- MBTI: ISFP, INFP
Introverted yet proactive and emotional.
🎈 Bryce’s Personality
- Blood Type: A
- MBTI: ESFJ, ENFJ
Extroverted yet calm and thoughtful.
Sometimes shows impulsive tendencies depending on the situation.
At first, Juli actively followed Bryce around.
But Bryce never reciprocated.
To him, Juli was nothing more than an annoying, burdensome presence.
Then one day,
when Juli became depressed and started avoiding him,
Bryce realized he had feelings for her.
But by then, he had already hurt her.
- Throwing away the eggs she lovingly gave him,
- doing nothing when the tree she loved was cut down,
- and the hurtful things he said.
Of course, Bryce didn’t mean to hurt her, but…
The distance between them grew,
and one day Bryce participated in the ‘Basket Boy Auction.’
This event introduced boys and auctioned off baskets representing them,
essentially an auction system for attractive guys.
Juli resolved not to spend money on Bryce,
ignoring the money at home and heading to school,
but a neighbor gave her money under the pretext of ‘overdue egg payment.’
Was this fate?
Juli kept agonizing over it
and eventually bid on the boy right before Bryce.
Bryce was shocked, unable to believe what happened.
While everyone was eating at the restaurant with their partners,
Bryce suddenly approached Juli
and pulled her up, saying they needed to talk.
Then he leaned in to kiss her.
Juli actually desperately wanted that moment,
but not like this, not this way.
Juli ran home.
For two days, Bryce lingered around her house,
endlessly expressing his desire to talk.
But Juli needed time alone.
This is typical behavior for people with I and P traits.
At that moment, I recalled past experiences and thought to myself,
‘If the guy doesn’t wait, things will only get worse…’
But the ending was different.
Bryce was digging in her yard with a shovel.
Startled while reading, Juli asked her father.
His response was simple.
“I gave him permission, Juli.”
Soon Bryce returned with a tree
and carefully began planting it in her yard.
Looking at the trunk and leaves,
it was the very tree Juli loved so much.
Seeing this scene, all of Juli’s feelings melted away,
and only then did their story truly begin.
And the final line.
“We realized we had never really talked.”
the film Flipped.
I watched Flipped with deep emotion.
The delicate emotional lines where love forms without words,
the pure and clear story.
It was enough to move my heart.
As an ESFJ with blood type A,
I deeply related to Juli and Bryce’s situation,
and it was a day of learning and insight.
Perhaps when conflicts arise,
resolving them through conversation
is the right answer and the path to a mature relationship.
It was a truly remarkable message.
I’ve never experienced major misunderstandings
due to lack of communication in my life,
but through the personalities and values of these characters,
I felt like I experienced another worldview.
Since childhood, I’ve liked ‘proactive women.’
But not someone loud and overly energetic—
someone with a calm emotional depth who approaches me without hesitation.
Perhaps that’s the kind of person I’ve always liked?
Now I can understand my values and tendencies a bit more clearly.
Though unrelated to this film,
I’m recording my ideal type here
and hoping more people like that come into my life.

☀️ My Ideal Type
- Proactive type O
- MBTI with I and P
- Warm-hearted,
- someone whose mere presence makes my worries disappear
Come to think of it,
I already have quite a few people like that around me.
I’m truly lucky. 😊
This concludes my review of Flipped.
