It turns out that you don't really need subtitles, after watching a few Korean dramas, you can perfectly understand what the topic of their conversations are(or at least I think so.. :P), and since it is only 10 minutes long, it's not that much talking.. :)
It was a really horrible story, but when you're thinking about the underlying topic of it, it's really cute.. It sounds weird, but its true.. It was a beautiful love story.. And the feelings are expressed very well in it too, so you(or at least I) get dragged in to it, and you are happy when they are happy, and sad when they are sad.
I also got a lot of empathy with the girl.. :)
I hope you watch it! It's definitely worth your time.. And Jae wook looks amazing as always!
what are you waiting for?

Several unanswered questions
I just watched for the challenge thinking it is only 10 mins but those ten minutes felt like 100 minutes. In those 100 minutes, I had several questions like- Who is under the table? Why watch that tv show? How did she end up here? Do they eat that? etc. It was more of peeking into the life of the couple and nothing more. Was it enjoyable? Not per say. I liked how whistle was a nod to the classic movie Psycho. What did I take from it? Nothing. Was it boring? not at all. It was a very disturbing, yet, different experience. Made for the art.Was this review helpful to you?
Ah........thats really frustrating!
just think about it for a sec.., if they made it a drama or even a longer movie, wouldn't it be great! i just didn't have enough! i wanted to see more! the acting of both the actors was great! they had an amazing chemistry, even though the girlfriend is afraid of him (mostly of his crazy obsession of killing people).
but anyway i really recommend this movie! but don't have high hopes when you watch it, it just won't fill all the gapes that you hope it will! :)

The story is nothing special, but it's like peeping through the keyhole into the life of a questionable couple. The casual, or even comedic tone kept through most of the movie made the ending that much more intense. It was a nice twist to a rather obvious story.
I'd say the use of the spider in the end was quite telling and a nice symbolism of the current situation of the female character.
Overall, it's nothing special, but it was nice. I never have any high expectations for short horror movies, and this was just entertaining and nicely done. I could not ask for more.
