Watch once, for the performances

Quite a short and simple film, that starts rather abruptly.
Everyone brought their A-game for this one and there's definitely some scenes that would be Oscar-worthy. Depressing ending, with well-done performances throughout. Not for the faint of heart, this occasionally disconcerting film will leave you with a few questions.
I enjoy dark, cerebral films. This one was more heady without being mentally taxing; rather it was an emotional gauntlet.
I would recommend is you like stunning direction, won't mind the sex scenes, and can handle questions about crossing the lines. Forget about social norms, hahaha.

I'm just writing this as a warning for others like me...I wish someone had posted a review that this was another horrendous film. The movie poster should have been a dead giveaway, so I'll take that more seriously next time. Just look at the poster and you'll figure out the plot. I'll never watch anything with Dong Hyeok again. He has to be really twisted. I think producers and actors must feel really oppressed by the strict censorship of TV and can't wait to create garbage like this. What a sick bunch of people.
