takes Fourteen years Detective Jo Min Woo [Han Suk Kyu from THE SCARLET LETTER] investigating a unsolved murder case again. A young woman and a man were involved in the child's age in this case, but they could never establish a connection be established to act. Jo Min Woo came across some new research literally proliferating deeper roots and covers unexpected motifs on a mysterious crime.

Nothing is as it seems!

Park Shin Woo's [second unit director on THE CHASER] directorial debut WALK INTO THE WHITE NIGHT is a very dark and melancholic mystery-puzzle, which composed of only late in a tangible and understandable picture. The time jumps between the time of the murder and the investigation into the presence of light the background of the complex relationship between the two main characters step by step. The film succeeds in the voltage will always be upright and touching on the emotional level high, which is partly due to the successful presentation of Son Ye Jin and Soo Go in the roles of the two involved. The influence that seems to have taken the crime on their lives, is described explicitly and engaging manner. WALK INTO THE WHITE NIGHT is very generous to the display of naked bodies, which in Korean cinema quite as scandalous sensitive issues such as child abuse and rape are treated openly - - should be called is still the film must not make the accusation this exploit an end in itself. Despite its critical elements, the film is not Explotationfilm but a moving and sad and gloomy at the same time crime drama. BYAKUYAKO [Korean title is another gem of contemporary Korean cinema and probably a treat for every fan of mystery stories and the tragedy of his. Besides MOTHER [review here] the most successful Korean imports from the year 2009!

A Rare Pearl

BYAKUYAKO based on the eponymous Japanese novel in November 2009 and was a big hit in Korean cinemas. The film is only available in the original language with English subtitles, a synchronized release seems unlikely, as the land of opportunity [again] the rights secured to a remake has - whether the sexual taboos in American cinema played exactly that way, be doubted at this point, however.
