How can she write so delicately without a fixed good versus bad framework? Good vs Bad is basic, yes. If you think about it, it's basic, but it's used in almost all movies because it starts the story. However, the writer of 'Following' chooses a more difficult path, and she makes it work. Freaking ending is the perfect example of how she balances morally right and wrong. When Gu gets out of prison, the movie starts to depict him as a nice guy, and I'm shouting 'Don't just hand out free passes to the stalker especially when stalking and killing ex-girlfriends are social phenomena in Korea.' Then, Detective Oh says 'look what you've done to your life.' Bam! That's what I'm talking about. She made it look so easy, but I'm sure bringing the right amount of justice to different intensity of crime is not an easy job. At the same time, she criticizes these days's obsession with social media in a subtle (not obvious like one of those exhortative films) way

* Shin's acting is absorbing and convincing as heck. Just superb.

* I just realized 'Following' is Kim's directorial debut. Kudos and looking forward to the next project.
