Parolee Han Tae-il has been in and out
of trouble all his life and is currently operating as the the right hand man of a
loan shark. One day he is sent to make a
collection but finds his customer in hos-
pital in a coma. At the man’s side is his
daughter, bank employee, Ju Ho-jeong
who he forces to take over her father’s
contract. Though she is now a customer of his, Tae-il develops an interest in
her and finds out that she is suffering
from money issues even though he insists that she will repay the debt. Tae-il
manages to convince his employer to
void her interest payments. Ho-jeong
is grateful but begins to regret the apprehend show of kindness when Tae-il
looks for repayment by forcing her to
spend time with him. He finally wins her
heart when Ho-jeong’s father dies and
Tae-il arranges the funeral. Sadly he is found to be breaking his conditions of
parole and sent back to prison. Can a
relationship survive after two years in
jail?

The debut from director Han Dong-wook could have easily have
been a very generic movie but thanks
to some excellent casting the director
has made something special; the film
stars favourites Hwang Jung-min (The
Unjust) and Han Hye-jin (No Mercy)
who have vibrant on-screen chemistry.
A weepy but enjoyable melodrama.
