Chaosmetal69 Although called: A Love, the movie itself has just enough splash of romance to not come off as a full blown movie in that genre. I would classify it as an action crime drama.I don't often write reviews right after movies unless they touch me that much, but the story, pacing, and characters inspired me to. Go watch this if you have the chanceThe goodAmazing acting - Emotional - Terrific score - Believable - Shakespearean in a sense - Great characters and portrayal of dramaThe BadWould have benefited a tiny bit more but not that much off a bigger budget

Multipleh This movie is all Jin Mo Ju. He is absolutely fantastic in this film. The story is about a country boy named Inho who falls in love with a girl in school. He does everything in his power to protect his girl Mijoo. He ends up going to prison for protecting Mijoo. Then Mijoo stops responding to his letters at the request of Inho's mother. Later, Inho gets out of prison and works for a crime boss named Mr. Yoo. Then one day, Mr. Yoo introduces Inho to his new mistress Mijoo. Overall, the story is simple and straight forward. However, the most notable part of the film is Ju Jin Mo's sadness in the last ten minutes of the film. You will never see an actor look more devastated on screen and the final scene where Jin Mo Ju screams is just as heartbreaking. Jin Mo Ju is one of the most naturally gifted actors working today.

aglobalcitizen I am giving this movie 9 out of 10 because of Ju Jin-mo. For those who are not familiar with this South Korean actor, he played the King in "A Frozen Flower". Since I am a big fan of Ju Jin-mo, no matter what movies he is going to be in, I will always give him top ratings because he deserves them.In this movie he plays a good guy turned into a gangster due to unfortunate circumstances. He fell in love with a girl and, trying to protect her honor and her life (she was about to be raped) he had to fight the bad guys and, as a result, serve his sentence for "attempted murder". When he came out of prison, he became a gangster for a big boss. As a caveat, the mistress of that big boss happened to be the very girl that he fell for. It seems that the fate brought those two together again. By the way, the same actress played the queen in "A Frozen Flower" and I don't think the director's choice was based on the fate alone.(MAJOR SPOILER AHEAD) The nature took its course, they ended up sleeping together. The big boss found out (well, even the walls in the bedroom have ears) and told his assistant to punish the guy. The assistant went to the person whom the gangster almost murdered a long time ago. Well, you can imagine the scope of retaliation. After severe beating, Jin-mo's character was thrown into a freezer. However he did not die and actually came out alive and killed off some of the bad guys (You go, Jin-mo!). However, the evil guy had the time to inform the girl that they fed her lover to the sharks by throwing his lifeless body into the sea. The girl could not stand the thought of losing the love of her life and jumped into the sea, thus committing suicide. When Jin-Mo's character found out, he jumped into the sea himself for the same reason. THE END. Hence my message to the director: if you want female viewers to watch those kind of movies, do not kill off the handsome guy! I don't care about the girl, even if five hundred of them jump it will not make a dent. But killing off Jin-Mo's character is a BIG MISTAKE!!! Bring him back! You will never get 10 out of 10 from me by killing my favorite actor! Amen.
