The Vanished (2018)

Esta es una película que ví hace algún tiempo como parte de trabajo para la universidad, por lo que no me acuerdo completamente de todo.
Sin embargo, se trata de un thriller coreano, los cuales amo, por lo que no puede estar muy mal no? Si recuerdo que algunas partes fueron muy confusas, creo que por eso le puse un 7, sin embargo, en general sí que me gustó y me pareció entretenido y me tuvo alerta para saber qué estaba pasando en realidad y quién llevaba razón, si el policía o el marido.
Si estás buscando un thriller coreano o te gustó la película española “El cuerpo”, the vanished es tu película ya que se trata de un remake de la película española

First of all, don't let the poster and the synopsis fool you. The poster, especially, is very misleading. The main focus on the movie is not the woman and her disappeared body, it's her cheating husband. And the poster looks very horror-ish, but the movie is not scary at all. It's a typical thriller with some thrilling and shocking scenes and, of course, unexpected plot twist.

The fist half of the movie is very intriguing even though it's a bit slow. It makes you curious about what we happen next and you have no idea what the heck is going on. And then there's the second half which was a bit too rushed in my opinion. The twist was good, yes, but it's not like you couldn't smell that something is fishy. They still connected the dots quite well and the ending was overall good.

The acting was decent for sure. Kim Sang Kyung definitely has his own way of portraying his characters which is nice to see. Kim Kang Woo is definitely an eye-candy and he's simply a pleasure to watch.

Overall, I wouldn't say this movie is a must-watch, but I enjoyed watching it and would recommend it if you're looking for something to pass time. But yeah, know that the premise is a bit misleading.
