Back in 2007, after debuting with the star-studded dud “Antarctic Journal”, director Yim Pil-sung adapted the popular Brothers Grimm story “Hansel and Gretel” into an excellent atmospheric and moody horror film by the same name. The film is still considered among the finest that Korean horror cinema has to offer and things were looking rosy for the sophomore director. It wasn’t, however, until 7 years later, that he would get to direct another feature length film. The film had quite a buzz around it, not least because of the director but also for featuring the pairing of superstar Jung Woo-sung with up-and-coming actress Esom in her first leading role, a role that got her nominated for five different Best New Actress Awards, winning one.
