7/10
Wanted to like this movie ...
10 February 2013
Warning: Spoilers
Everything other reviewers have said about this Korean movie is true. However, it makes me upset that everyone, including my Korean wife, refuse to accept the fact that the main male character essentially allowed the "love of his life" to get raped when she was nearly passed out drunk by another man and did nothing about it except stand at the front door for a moment. It's a disgusting representation of how acceptable and common this behavior is here when women drink too much. If it weren't for this one scene the movie would be golden. Yet it exists. And what upsets me more I cannot say ... that the scene is in the movie, or the acceptance it's met with.
