Joi manheun sonyeo

I think this film has high potential at the beginning of the story and the actors are good in playing the role, but some scenes make me wonder. One of the policemen said that the CCTV was broken, and in the other the police said that when "they" kissed were caught on CCTV, it was quite strange. And unfortunately the end of the story is a bit hanging and again makes you wonder, what is the meaning of the last scene shown. Did the girl decide to commit suicide or what? Maybe I don't understand the plot, try watching it. Will you agree.

Yeo-been is fantastic. Night in Paradise is one of my favourite movies of 2021 and I didn't know her before, but on this, she was already proving all her skills and qualities as an actress. What she can express with her eyes, with her expression, is quite incredible.

This is not an easy watch at all. The themes, per se, are already very heavy, and the director and writer don't make any favour with some violent and unexpected scenes. There are no easy answers here and don't expect happy endings. This is a big society's problem and the film does a great work highlighting that, not focusing only on schools, teachers, students or parents. Not for everyone, but I like how it raises so many questions and how provocative it is.

Girl goes missing. Back pack found IN river !!

1. Mum n Dad set up camp on the riverbank of the police search site ?

2. Only the back pack has been found no body at this stage. Mass interview with teachers and they're all speaking in the past tense and relaying how weird the missing girl WAS ?

3. CCTV does not work on the bridge by she must have committed suicide from there ?

4. The mother of the missing girl sits in on police interviews with the other pupils ?

I'm only 15 minutes in as well. Daft film.

Surely this does not really reflect air is near the truth. Its like a sombre dark comedy.

Switched off !!

Korean movies usually get a big audience. I should have guessed this was bad as there are only 3/4 other reviews.

Given the sole fact that this is a South Korean movie was more than sufficient to make me want to sit down and watch it. And so I did, without knowing what the movie was about, or whom was in it.

From the title and the movie's cover/poster, I must admit that I had expected to be in for a horror movie. Which it turned out not to be. "After My Death" (aka "Joi manheun sonyeo") was a rather slow-paced drama.

While the storyline was pretty interesting and well-told, the movie was just dragging on and at 2 hours long it felt like you got nowhere really. And truth be told, then it felt like you were sitting through a 4 hour long movie. Yes, the pacing of the movie was that tedious and slow.

That being said, what carried the movie was its storyline and the really great acting performances of the cast, especially Yeo-bin Jeon, playing Yeong-hee.

There were some pretty nice and interesting elements to the storyline, which I felt that director and writer Ui-Seok Kim barely skimmed, which was a shame because there was so much untapped potential for a very intense and captivating movie here. Sure, it was enjoyable and watchable, but it just felt a bit too hasted and shallow at certain points throughout the prolonged 2 hours running time.

While "After My Death" is not a particularly outstanding or memorable movie addition to the South Korean cinema, it does have enough contents to make it watchable at least once.
