Heart is... (Hangul: 마음이; RR: Maeumi), also known as Hearty Paws, is a 2006 South Korean drama film directed by Park Eun-hyung and Oh Dal-kyun.
The movie centers on two siblings, an 11-year-old boy named Chan-yi (Yoo Seung-ho) and his little sister So-yi (Kim Hyang-gi). Abandoned by their mother, they are left to survive on their own. For his sister's 6th birthday, Chan-yi decides to give her a dog. He sneaks into a house of an old couple and steals a newly-born puppy, which she's been longing to have. Even though they are poor, they were happy. But everything changed after a tragic accident; So-yi died. Chan-yi blames this on his dog and finds his way to his mother, not realizing that the dog was the only true family that would never leave him.
The film was released in South Korea on October 26, 2006 and sold 1,042,166 tickets nationwide.
