The execution of the first half of the movie might seem boring to other people for some reason since it just shows a weird kid and a bunch of bullies in a typical elementary school. But when Su-rin meets Sung-min. Su-rin is now involved with whatever Sungmin is gonna do. Surin's world starts to revolve around Sungmin's character.
The shots are really really aesthetic AF praise to the 'Director of Photography' I really loved how the transition of the shots are just so aesthetic. 'Praise to everyone who worked on this movie'
In the second half of the movie is when the conflict starts to rise that makes the audience feel the tension and makes the 'What if?' question pop up on your mind. And you're gonna thank me for warning you that THIS IS A MAJOR TEAR JERKING MOVIE. I promise you, I knew that this was a tear jerking movie because, one, for a fact that I read comments first before watching and that I also told myself that i wont cry because I already knew that this was a sad movie. BUT I STILL CRIED so yeah..
Anyway, moving on to the actors. The child-actors are really good at portraying heavy-emotional roles and I praise them for that. Especially the main child actress, her character is so heavy-emotional-apathetic(at the start of the movie), I'm just guessing if she's going to be nominated for a some kind of an awarding ceremony she'd totally be the best rookie actress.
And dude, The old Sungmin(Kang Dongwon), as expected from Dongwon. HE just fits the role. No matter how crazy or how weird his character may be, he just pulls it off no matter what.
