This film has all the ingredients to be miysogynistic and that's one of the possible readings. And it's quite legitimate. But, in fact, it seems to be more about mysoginy and the consequence of misogynistic behaviour and its consequences. Not advocating them. Nobody gets what deserves in this one and there are more victims (but one of them is being that absolutely and more than others). But what seems to be some morale here is that after the act there's just no way back. Either you get your life broken or, even worse, you don't get even that. I watch a lot of Asian films latelly and most of them look like statements about gender antagonisms. And mostly, their outcome on the end is unpopular and brave. And out there for everyone to see what it looks like when you don't paint them in unrealistic colors. As it should be. This film has a dreadful conclusion but it must be seen for what it is. That's why it's good ...

An excellently performed movie about our age of the equality of the genders. If men lose their jobs and their wives have wild affairs can a man forever hold his horses? An original story with a touching motherly daddy who knows when enough is enough...

I'll admit, I started looking at this movie only because Ju Jin Mo happened to be part of the cast, after watching him in 'A frozen flower'. Brace yourself for the opening sex scene, it left me baffle and in a state of total denial to the very end.

A word of advice, don't be fooled by the title. Though the storyline was strong, there were certain plots that had would have you thinking, like whose the real father of Yumi? . . . Enough said, overall I enjoyed it, although I was HAPPY about the ending.😊😱😌🙉

Pretty insane to think that FL's actress was the same person that recently did Crash Course in Romance. ML's actor was in Old Boy, as well. This was a very solid movie in the "romance noir" genre, apparently. I have to say that I was glad not to have seen the poster, because that would have kind of ruined the surprise, whereas while watching the movie I was able to really be "fooled" by the writer's plot.

I really liked the movie stylistically, great attention to details. Though we didn't get flashbacks explaining what happened in the past, everything was hinted at as if we found ourselves "in the middle of things", to create the ambience.

Great actors, interesting story, this could be a very good movie, at least for someone who like this genre. Unfortunately, pace was terrible. One of the worst movies' paces of all time. I don't mind slow burn movies but a movie of this particular genre (something like drama/romance/neo-noir) should be faster. A slow movie should have great cinematography, should raise philosophical issues or something like that. This is the story of a man whose wife is cheating on him. Not an art movie. No need for shots that doesn't serve the plot, this is not a magical Wong Kar Wai movie. As it was progressing, it was more frustrating. It was very difficult to watch. At some point, it took almost a minute for the leading character to open the refrigerator. Come on, what is this?

Someone more patient than me might like it.
