User Reviews

 
Gloomy and important
15 December 2020 | by wickedmikehamptonSee all my reviews

'Han Gong Ju' is one of Korea's finest movies, and the directors first.

It became their country's biggest indie movie, even outselling Spiderman 2 in that comic obsessed culture. Maybe because 'Hang Gong Ju' was inspired by a real-life event that makes the 'Unbelievable' mini-series 'tame'.

I felt its female pain, uncomfortable of being male in chauvinistic society.
