While the movie maker put lots of efforts in the form, it lacks identity. Despite the story happens during a time period of westernization in the East Asian, another westernization in the director's view can be seen in the movie. The movie makers tried hard to make a Hollywood movie perhaps based on some specific models in mind. However, the result is neither close to any good Hollywood examples nor a film to shine independently. Except, very beginning of the movie, you won't feel that you are watching a Korean movie.
Some of the characters (e.g. the leading actor) were not well written in the screenplay. Moreover, some of the action scenes were too exaggerated and over act.
Besides all the leading actress did an excellent job especially playing the elderly parts.
