The rough animation wasn''t my taste but added a good unsettling tone to the already bleak movie. Depressingly explores the South Korean social oower dynamics and the human nature. Tried to handle many topics which become more than it can chew and also feels sluggish after a while. Definitely one of the most depressing watches.
