A movie that blurs the line between good and evil.

I recommend this to Yoo Ah In lovers and people who enjoy very character-focused stories.

I'm trying to be as vague as possible but there are some spoilers. Story-wise, I really like it. The only thing that made me not rate it a ten was the confusing ending with lots of loose ends. I'm supposed to feel something but I don't and that's because I'm a person who watches more romance-focused media than other things. If you're a person who likes movies with lots of meanings, this story is for you. Other than that, this was a really good movie that more focused on the relationships than the story. There's a very blurred line between good and evil. The Stockholm Syndrome-like plot made me uncomfortable but it is like Beauty and the Beast level except for no romance. And the girl ends up making the right decision in the end. If the watched the story, you'll know what I mean.

The real star of the show in this movie is the acting. Of course, Yoo Ah In's acting is impeccable as usual and he can express a lot of the story despite the fact that he does not have one line in this story. His small expressions make the story and replace his lack of a voice. but the breakout role in this is of the kidnapped girl. The actress really embodies the character of a person who wants to escape but also doesn't want to antagonize her kidnapper. Although she's young, she can express a wide range of emotions and was not overshadowed at all by Yoo Ah In, a veteran actor. The acting is helped by the fact that the plot is very character-oriented so it's made interesting by the acting.

The music was not very memorable but wasn't like bad and it did add to the story in the places it was placed at and I'd rewatch this just because I want to see if there's anything I missed after the ending that left me with so many questions.
