A box of tissues is a must!!

I was looking for a good cry and didn't want to watch any long dramas and this movie made me feel anything but disappointed in that aspect. It was heartbreaking to watch, to say the least, but I am so glad to have watched it because this is the sort of movie that has the potential to make you rethink life and look at living in a different light.
The e cast just nailed it, so much so that you won't feel like they are not actually living their life, even for a second. Even the little girl! And the fact that there are actual people that had to go through that is even more heartbreaking.
Also, some might argue that even if they didn't make it out of gwangju and told the whole world about it, someone would have. Yes, they would have and maybe the story would have been a little different but the suffering would not be any less. It's also important to talk about the people who didn't make it out - my heart goes out to them.
I hope everyone involved in that massacre finds peace. And I wish the two of them meet before either of them dies, they both deserve that - the peace.
Overall a great watch!
