7/10
Incredible movie about a horrible reality
17 July 2021
A young Korean-American girl goes out one night with a friend, and she meets an off duty fireman, in uniform, at a bar. While chatting with him, her friend kind of wonders off,, so the fireman offers to take her home. While driving, he's telling her all the right things, and she's becoming more smitten by the second. Then he pulls over. A car pulls up behind them and stops. He gets out and goes to talk to whomever is in the other car. She looks in the back seat of his car and sees that there are several different types of uniforms (police, army, scrubs, etc). She realizes something is obviously wrong,, and as she tries to escape someone grabs her,,,

Wow,, this movie is eye-opening, to say the least. One of those movies everyone should see. It's not one that'll win awards (not big ones, at least), but it really keeps you invested and paying attention to what's happening to the lead character (Chung). While not gratuitous, the director didn't shy away from depicting the horror and fear girls that are abducted and trafficked go through. What would someone in this situation do in order to survive?
