I started this movie because it seemed to be an interesting movie and wanted to see how it would all end. However, I was not prepared for the disappointing story, The attitude of the villagers, in the beginning, made no sense to me. Were they really that fearful of strangers. That was one of the odd things. The second odd thing was their reason for betraying the MC. I felt it was just an extremely lousy, stupid, selfish reason. They could have just set him on his way. The story was inconsistent at that part because the village head himself told his son that people do not remember good deeds just bad ones. He knew and believed this statement but went ahead and committed the atrocities he did? That is just a plain stupid character. Then, the fate of his son was just unexpected and I think it was just thrown in for shock value because, at that point in the movie, I was already angry at the foolishness of the villagers that I was not even saddened by what happened to Young Nam. The third odd thing was the world-building. It was not done well because I do not understand how the parents and the children could have slept separately. The good things about the movie are the acting and the tragic ending of the villagers. Very disappointed.
