Fiuhhhhhhh.... I watched this movie because of Choi Daniel. kekeke. Actually, when i watched this movie, i don't get it at the first 20 minutes. It's so confusing. And i got startled when i know that Sang Ho is behind the human organ trafficker. I just can say "what the heck?! I amazed by Jung Ji Yoon acted. when she falls from the table and when crawling to call her husband. She is topless! I Don't know if that's her real body or they used manequine or something else. I can't say if this movie is good or not, but i enjoyed watch this movie. Besides, this movie got an award to for Best New Director on 2012 (33rd) Blue Dragon Film Awards on 30 November 2012. Congratulation!
