A tense psychological thriller of injustice and revenge<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Tae Joong leads a simple life, between his job as a delivery boy and his silent dreams. One day, he picks up a lost telephone in the street and returns it to its owner. This banal gesture becomes the starting point of a nightmare. That day,\" he says in a broken voice, \"my life fell apart. Accused of a crime he didn't commit, Tae Joong finds himself in prison, unable to understand what is happening to him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The teaser skilfully plays on contrasts: Tae Joong's visible suffering, his muffled cries in the corridors of a cell, set against the chilling calm of Yo Han, played by Doh Kyung-soo. The fast-moving shots and nervous editing reveal a mental stalker, a cat-and-mouse game in which the manipulator always seems to be one step ahead. Yo Han's wry smile and enigmatic words, \"Calling me was the right thing to do\", only add to the tension.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
