c_u_t_e 13 Oct 02 2012 3:29 pm it s a sad ending especially for those who were innocent and to those people who just want to continue living their simple lives...seeing this movie has made me suddenly realized that life no matter how simple you want it to be when fate wants to twist it everything will change...

iLLusiOnEr Dec 30 2011 12:37 pm Very good movie.Jung Ryeo Won is lovely as always.The scene when the bombs dropped was done like the scene of 'pig-catching' in Welcome to Dongmakgol, make me believe that it is from the same production, but it isn't so. 8.5/10
