So, I wanted to watch this movie since Jo In Sung acts in it, but no one had any reviews. I will be the first to review:

Story: 8/10

It's a gangster movie, with an interesting plot. Many unexpected events happen and the fighting scenes are great. Had the ending been different, my rating would've been higher, but I'll stick to 8/10.

Acting/Cast: 9/10

The actors were great. They all are experienced actors and were able to make me believe their characters were real. Also, the chemistry between Byung Du and Hyun Ju shows as the movie progresses. I personally loved the kissing scene in this movie. It was very unexpected and passionate! Also, Nam Goong Min (Maroo Oppa from Can You Hear My Heart) acts in this movie which was a plus, although his character was not my favorite in this movie.

Music: 9/10

The OST was great. With some french elements (like the Accordion, strings and pizzicato technique) , the music was sometimes funny and others sad (depending on the situation). I also liked the music played at a clubbing scene. I wouldn't say it's an EPIC OST (10/10) but it was quite lovely and refreshing. I even downloaded it afterwards!

Rewatch Value: 6/10

The reason I'd rewatch this movie is for In Sung and the kissing scene. The reason I wouldn't would be what I mentioned in the Story review section; the ending was not exactly satisfactory for me but no spoilers here.

In total, it was a very good movie with some nice action, awkward moments, revenge, extremely sad moments and a touch of romance. 8/10
