If you start with a movie don't expect to much from it!
This was my first opinion when I read the summary on the DVD case!
I though cover looks OK summary was boring!
It was boring in the beginning but it became better and better!
The last half hour was really spectacular!
Actually the special effect makes it all!
If you compare it with The Restless it was nothing!
But story was this way way better!
Every movie got a 'sad' scene!
So does here! It was just so brave!
But other side also very stupid!
If you watched some scene later!
But just figure it out by yourself which scene I meaning LOL
Beside the main actors and actress.
The most eye catching for me was Do I Seong!
The one who plays In Ha, the friend/companion of the main character Seol Joo!
He didn't say much but were many scenes from him! I like haha
