At that time , i told to my parents "mom, dad, i will take my pillows first when fire happens". At present,I,22years old don't know why i really like the pillow at that time. But i think that it was very comfortable thing and make me ease always. When hugging with the pillow, i felt that i seemed like hugging with my mom. <BR/><BR/>anyway, june the pillow is very good film to me because it makes it possible for me to recall my childhood i temporarily forgot.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27389910.post-37757204833789027572008-10-09T11:08:00.000-04:002008-10-09T11:08:00.000-04:00The purity of Julie makes me smile. :)Since she is...The purity of Julie makes me smile. :)<BR/>Since she is a child, she doesn't have any prejudice yet.

And as someone said above, I kinda don't like the English version names. Joori and Pillow baby is just fine. I guess the change was for the convenience of translation.

That's okay. Childish movies are fun to watch. I just happen to disagree about their importance.
