As many other people who like kpop, this movie also caught my attention because Dongho is a part of the cast. I didn't know much about the plot when I clicked on the title of the teaser, so I didn't really know what to actually expect. It surprised me, in the best way 'surprise' can be taken. I think I can note that I would've watched this movie even if Dongho wouldn't have taken part in it. So, after I found it, I immediately started to watch it.
Amazing movie. According to the fact that I don't watch other movies like this on a daily basis (the genre stands pretty far away from my taste, but that's probably going to change from now on), I think it's a huge word for me to state that it's amazing, but it really is. Even though I didn't really understand all the words, just a few that I've learned from watching other films, dramas or variety shows, it really affected me emotionally. I teared up several times while watching it and it made me think a few things over, causing me to hug my mother a few minutes after it ended.
The story is really sad and it's terrifying to know that these situations happened in real life, not only once or twice. The cast is another thing; you can clearly see who's a senior to who. I think I can point it out that the best actor or actress in this movie is Yoo Sun. It's incredible how much emotion she brings to her character. As for the main person who lead me to this movie, Dongho, I'm also satisfied. A bit of practice and he's going to turn out an incredible actor, I'm telling you. The music gave me chills several times during the film, especially the intense piano sounds and such.
Overall, I think this is way far the best film of 2012, and not only in Korea.
