When Jae-young is accidentally killed during a police raid, Yeo-jin locates their clients in an act of penance, sleeping with them to return their money. Yeo-jin's father (Eol Lee) stumbles onto her secret and takes revenge on her lovers. At a crossroads, father and daughter embark on a desperate trip in the hope of gaining absolution and redemption.

The actual content of the film is not pretty and so neither are my feelings. I just wanted drama, so I got it. Pretty depressing, but it captured the seriousness of the matter perfectly. It's not a movie I'll watch again, but I'm glad I saw it. 3.5 stars.

A pretty pleasant surprise. What strikes you at first is the naivety with which the director develops his story, in an emotional level of Asian mentality that I will never fully understand. From the episode "Sonata" onwards, however, Kim Ki-Duk comes up with a poetic narrative that culminates in the best possible ending. After The Isle I wasn’t expecting something this interesting.

I found the theme beautiful in its own way, but given the poetry of the poster I would have expected a slightly different type of film. Nevertheless, it was still an interesting experience and next time I will have a clearer idea of South Korean perception.
