Bella Jan 27 2021 11:02 am I will be do the same if my daughter being assault by stupid brat like them. Law isn’t fair for this case, that’s why her mom choose to kill not to prison them. Police and law isn’t strong enough, if their daughter being assault like that, can they not to kill that brat?

lily Mar 15 2017 2:20 am the story is very confusing, eun-ha suffered but she didn't have her freedom or her death had no justice

kii Feb 11 2016 8:12 am Everyone is saying that she should have given the video to the police, but the police cant do much then give them maybe up to 2 month, then they're free, it's mire justice if they too die. the law is corupped and it wouldnt be fair anyway, it would be justice.

Aj Aug 22 2015 11:00 am Strong acting (the relationship between mother and daughter was precious) in a heartbreaking story. SPOILERS: Despite the disclaimer about under-age rape convictions at the end, the plot is filled with holes. There would have been skin tissue, hair and clothing fibers as evidence of the rapists and at least as accessories to rape. Then there are the videos on the daughters' phone and rapists' computers (why wasn't there a warrant to search their rooms and computers for evidence they claimed they didn't have) that clearly documented rape, the presence of witnesses, and proof they drove the girl to kill herself because they would never leave her alone. Additionally, I know the mom is grief-stricken and feels abandoned by the lazy and sexist legal system, but her own behavior is wrong. She needed to send copies of the videos to the detective who cares about her and fight back in court. It's too important a topic to go after revenge melodrama instead of lasting justice for the daughter and other rape victims. The writer blew that opportunity.

Jungle_fish Aug 17 2014 11:28 am I've not been satisfied till the movie end, cause the victims and the culprits are all dead, maybe because it was described such it's real event. But I think suicide and kill the culprits are not the best way. I'm so dissapointed cause the girl go back meet the boys only for begging them to not share the video. How stupid.. yet I'm so pity her so much. I still didn't get it why don't the girl just have to give the police the video. If she thinks that that way the video will be shared at least the point here is to give the culprits to the prison, then If after the judgment it still didnt work, so the flawless is on the law, isn't it? And I'm still angry to their parents who attempt to bribe her. It looks as if their children did such a tolerable act. Sigh...even their parents act more than animals.

Well I think one the cast who ride a motorbike is Simon D, right? just like I'm fimiliar with him.

Clarkdale44 Mar 26 2014 3:02 pm That was very sad.. My blood is at its maximum boiling point as i watched the ending. I might go crazy any time. She should have gotten 100 awards for those killings. She saved many girls from being raped by those animals(the best term to to describe them) in the future. Anyway casting was amazing by both Nam Bo Ra and Yun Sun. But it was very hard to bear it. Those animals needs to be burned to death alive so in future no one could ever think of attempting this.

I will give it 6/10(Good Casting, decent story)

maaa Oct 16 2013 9:22 am very chilling and sad story. i thought dongho was a shitty choice cause his acting was so stiff.. nam bora was amazing and so does the mother. importent film.. i hope the korean law would change.

shahrizal Sep 30 2013 10:38 pm 'If they can't punish them,I will do it myself'. When I read the tagline I except this will be a best movie but I disspointed.No action,no suspense.no blood.I thought it can be good like Princess Aurora (2009).

Ji-Min Sep 18 2013 1:20 pm OMG !!! Best movie ever ^ ^ at this movie I love and hate Dongho at the same time O.O (how is this even possible? o.o) Poor Eun-Ah :/// I feel bad for her ://

Jayno Jul 13 2013 8:59 pm OMIGOSH! Dong Ho smokes and rapes in this movie!!!!

JKgirl Apr 05 2013 7:49 am Seems like a rip off of Japanese film, "Confessions".

After_Dark Nov 30 2012 12:56 pm Oh, I wait for this film.
