It's a great movie!
6 July 2018 | by hyehyo – See all my reviews

This movie is seriously good and I recommend ANYBODY AND EVERYBODY to watch it. It's pretty funny at the beginning and it gets super touching and heart wrenching at the end.. This movie is based on a true story. It shows the life of a Korean comfort woman and her work to fight for reparation on behalf of all the young girls who were victimized by the Japanese Imperial Army. I hope many people watch this movie. Hope you can take some time to watch it, it truly was eye opening.
