thrillme May 17 2024 4:03 am Brilliant. This one should not be missed out on for both historical importance and superb delivery top to bottom.

Erika Aug 02 2023 10:55 pm I cried a lot. It really makes me sad to think that this is a true story. This is highly recommended every actors gives justice to their role ??

Albert Nov 22 2020 5:44 am The film was great! It is heartbreaking yet inspiring. Jung Woo & Kang Ha-Neul were phenomenal in their character portrayals. Highly recommended to anyone!

Rhy Jun 22 2020 10:21 am I recommend this movie!! Well done! It makes me more sad to think that this actually happened in real life.

Looney Jun 11 2020 3:35 am This movie is so underrated, needs more recognition!!!Ha-Neul and Jung-Woo did a great job in all expressions, well done!

AJ Jun 20 2019 10:38 am Strongly Recommended.

One of Korea’s finest films with excellent script, direction, and terrific performances by the two main leads. The story is based on a real miscarriage of justice and a lawyer who becomes the attorney and man he was meant to be through his hard work to clear a completely innocent young man. Strongly recommended as still one more entry in the growing cache of great Korean dramas and films from the best filmmakers in the world today. My only caveat is some scenes are graphic, wrenching, and heartbreaking, but they had to be to tell the truth, so steel yourself. Otherwise, the story is inspiring and lifting, and I think viewers will love both leads and the characters they play, so settle in for a great film.

kmovielover Jul 17 2018 7:13 am It’s a must watch!!!! i wished it was longer....... the acting was amazing and i wished the plot wasnt based on a real event bc it was hust so heartbreaking.....

yolo Jun 04 2018 9:56 pm Kang ha neul acting is awesomee. Also the lawyer did so well. The ending just take my tears soooo much. Kang ha neul played the role very well which can make my hearts hurts knowing its fact:"""

Chi Dec 07 2017 10:51 pm Of the 4 crime-related K-movies I've watched this year, this is the only one where justice was really served in the end. The acting was great as expected of the cast but it was also captivating; I couldn't keep my eyes off the screen. The story is as real as it could get where money and seeking for justice is involved (betrayal, cover-ups, debts, etc). I wish there are more movies like this one. It really is a must-watch.

boo Sep 17 2017 4:03 pm I wished that this never happened ... so sad that i can't say it was a good movie cause it ruined a child's life . The saddest movie ever.

a Jun 24 2017 11:30 pm immediately put this into my favorite movies of all time list after watching it! the actors were amazing. love the chemistry between jung woo and haneul on set and in real life. I felt so frustrated watching this. injustice in a system that's supposed to bring justice?... just wow. power and money can get you away with anything. that's unfortunately the reality and it's tragic. I thought Joon Young was just a made up character because I didn't believe there was a lawyer that was that dedicated and good-hearted as him. I was surprised to see that this movie was based on a true story in the end. So sad for the real Hyun Woo but so glad that Joon Young is real. I hope there will be more lawyers that aren't blinded by money and power like Chang Hwan and genuinely want to help bring justice to the people like Joon Young.

Aren May 05 2017 7:09 am Great movie and great acting. Now the main story behind this movie is about this boy wrongly accused and tortured like anything by the people who are appointed to serve the people. Very strong social message from this movie and I put this movie in my top 10 list of movies i have watched so far. Worth it.

ARMY May 02 2017 4:50 am This move is no joke! It teaches you about being humble, be fair and fight for justice. Kang ha neul did so well as the main character. To anyone who didn't watch it yet, I suggest you to watch this movie ASAP ! Believe me, you won't regret anything. :)

Cmb Apr 22 2017 7:07 am Accdg to the notes, he was 15 yrs old. Just wow, for them, ruining a child's life is so easy. Unbelievable!
