I rented this movie after having watched Failan, also directed by Song Hae-sung. Whereas Failan drew powerful emotions of loss and sorrow, this movie was a bland march to a trite ending. The plot is somewhat interesting, as it takes on a Star Trek-like turn for the paranormal. But the characters are flat and the dialogue is painfully terse. Somehow the audience is supposed to feel what the characters feel, but how can we do that when the acting is so unexpressive and the dialogue so cryptic? Kim Hee-sun has no charm or allure, but is a pasty ghost of a woman, as usual. Song Seung-heon is too low key to portray the character's intense longings. Finally, Kim Hyun-joo doesn't strike me as someone who is completely head-over-heels. In the end, the trio's rigid acting made for a completely sterile experience.
