Audience Member This is a classic love triangle story. The story held my interest. But, the story is not well thought out. There are story threads that are inconsistent with the overall theme. All three lead characters are pretty good. The disaffection between the husband and wife was not fully explained. There was never any intimacy between them nor addressing why there was not any. They were just presented as a married couple. The infant child was OK. But, the child could have been more sympathetic or helpful if the kid had been more animated and/or cute. Korean dramas tend to involve violence. And, the violence tends to be gruesome. This movie follows that pattern. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/01/23 Full Review Audience Member an undercurrent of sinister intentions crept up on me... why wasn't i surprised? Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/13/23 Full Review Audience Member Packendes, dramatisches und unfassbar intensives koreanisches Drama mit einer interessanten Geschichte und verdammt guten Darstellern. Super! gute 3,5/5 Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/18/23 Full Review Audience Member good murder, hot erotic scene Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/12/23 Full Review Audience Member Korean version of "Little Children". Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/18/23 Full Review Audience Member I'm not sure how well this transitioned into a bloodthirsty thriller - it probably would have been more interesting, and more consistent, if it had gone the "mindbending" route. Something more like Gaslight, or a French movie? I'm not sure. I thought it was interesting, although I had problems with it. It's genuinely disturbing, I will give it that.
