Holding the breath to keep on living
The description pretty much says everything, so let's cut to the chase. Jin is in prison, but he is full of passion. Yeon has a family, house and her art, despite that she is lethargic. She goes to prison and revives her love memories with songs and colorful wallpapers to tease Jin. Jin has an admirer in his jail cell.Have you noticed that Ha Jung Woo made too many movies? near didn't recognized him here. The movie is Korean, the leading actor is Taiwanese, Chang Chen(Love and Destiny and Crouching Tiger) his character is almost mute here.
The interactions is the strength of the movie, although the inmates relationships are a bit funny in some moments. The couple here has shown chemistry and the kisses are very passionate. And what's wrong with the Prison boss? Overall a good movie with some quirk moments here and there. The end was very sexy in a dangerous way.

Taiwanská herecká hvězda v hlavní roli korejského filmu. Snímek zatracovaný i vychvalovaný. Mě se líbil a nic bych na něm neměnil a nevadí mi, že gay složky je méně, ale stále tam tiká. Chang Chen je až moc velký sympoš na to, aby představoval několikanásobného vraha, ale věřil jsem mu, celkové pomalé posouvání příběhu a dojem byl pro mě velmi dobrý, užil jsem si to.
