At first going into this movie/mini-drama I thought it was going to be a lot bloodier. It's about a gangster after all! And then I realized it's not like that at all. Genuinely a good love story, I found this movie to be seriously fantastic. The acting was spot on and the characters very lovable. I really like the song they chose for the theme of this movie and how they incorporated it into the story in several aspects. There wasn't anything I disliked about this movie because it was seriously that good.

A beautiful, touching story.
It tells the story of a gangster, without any of the usual blood and gore. The fight sequence itself is somehow beautiful to watch.
There are just two episodes, and the story isn't in any hurry. The moods of each scene are captured very well through the visuals as well as the music, and at times even the silences. The best part of the story is in the last 15 minutes probably, which turns the story around so beautifully, without which this would be just another sad love story.
And of course, there is Lee Dong Wook- who we know is good, and yet, he amazes! He takes the gangster role to another level.
