Summary: Although this is a Korean film, the film has only the options of listening to it in either Cantonese or Mandarin or reading it in English subtitles. The quality of the picture and sound are good but not top notch.



Although the plot itself is not incredibly unique -basically, what will happen when a man finds out that his wife is having an affair with her previous lover- I thought it was pretty well done. The actors did their part decently, and the characters they played were quite believable (except for one climactic scene that I didn't fully buy). The sex scenes are pretty intense (think Monster's Ball with better lighting) so keep the kids away. To me, the most interesting part was how they used the title of the movie in context.
