this was a good movie but talk about messed up. and the only ones to blame where the adults that started all this sh*t. Yo Han's parents not to mention that f*cking mother - like how can any woman do that to their child?!? (and as astonished as i'm - this isn't the first time i've heard about this happening. and still my mind just can't comprehend how a mother could do that to their own child).

as much as Detective Han Dong Su was supposedly the "good guy", didn't like him much, first off his hitting his partner even jokingly on the face and head, would've made me homicidal. that sh*t aint funny. then this genius takes his son to that old boat - alone - with no protective gear, and tells him to go down the freaking shoot, with zero visibility. is his kid a rock climber?!? like which idiotic reckless father/parent would do that??? this guys - like seriously.

felt sorry for both kids, yeah easy to call Yoo Mi Ho evil, considering what has become of her, but going through the sh*t that was enabled by her mother, on the daily - to suffer like that. how could u come out of it normal? even now that she has it all. and will likely get off scot-free. she won't lead a normal life. she will try too, but that is impossible - as she doesn't know what "normal" is. which is kinda scary - for everyone around her lol

Yo Han the poor poor boy, yrs to not only carry around the guilty of killing his own father, but then to become her tool to be used, she turned him into her personal hitman - and everything just kept weighting on his conscious. little wonder this ended for him as it did. i think that's why his mother at last called Han, cause she was worried that he wasn't gonna live long. and if Han caught him he would have a chance in prison. something better the nothing (guessing - otherwise dunno why she suddenly changed her mind, and told Han the whole truth).

haven't seen the Japanese movie, but this was well acted (not that i had any doubt with actors like Son Ye Jin, Han Seok Kyu or Go Soo) enjoyed it as much as one could with this kind of sad plot.
