Good little film. I didn't expect much but it really surprised me. Just didn't understand the ending perfectly. Anyone else seen it? What did you think?

Saw it with my family during vacation. I liked it, a bit odd but in a good way.

You might want to put *potential spoiler alert* in your title if you're going to discuss the ending.

Not going to reading about it now. Interesting director! Sad that Korean doesn't want to fund any of his projects and he has to turn elsewhere for funds.

My take on the ending - Tae-suk (the guy) was sorta of the unobtainable dream of a better life for the the battered wife. Only when she was able to come to peace with her reality (marriage to her asshole husband) would that dream be something which she could glimpse. Kinda like the saying about happiness being that which disappears when you search for it, but alights on you when you let it go.

One of my favorite Korean movies. You should watch "Spring, Summer, Fall, Winter... and Spring". It's directed by the same guy.

Thanks will look into it. Korean makes some pretty great horror films as well.
