[pechumori]

You're welcome, @valsava. There is only one "Shoot the Sun" movie. It's just that this was shot in 2013 and released only now, 2015, after two years. His fans have been waiting for this because it has been three years since his last movie and this would be the first time when he would have a love scene.  ^^
