"Debt collector Nam-soon (
Kwon Sang-woo) lost his sense of pain after a traumatic accident during his youth, and now regularly takes beatings for his job. Street vendor Dong-hyun (
Jung Ryeo-won) suffers from severe
hemophilia, a disorder that impedes the body's ability to stop bleeding. For Dong-hyun, even the most minor of injuries could be deadly. She's left homeless after Nam-soon collects the last of her money, so he decides to take her in. As the two grow closer, Nam-soon suddenly begins to lose his lifelong insensitivity to pain and the hurt of a lifetime washes over him. Together, these two lonely souls learn to hurt and hope again..."
Not bad but could have been so much better. It lacks the emotional feelings we get when we see this kind of films. That's not surprising since this film has the same director as Friend. Kwon Sang-woo did a good job but his character wasn't expressed enough and Jung Ryeo-won doesn't actual go through any development. It feels like this was the debut of some director rather than a film from an experience director.
2/5
Better than Friend though
