A very nifty thriller. Director Baysenbay takes a socially relevant topic (harassment of women) and uses it as a basis for a creepy thriller with minor horror influences. It's certainly not a novel concept and a shorter runtime would've made this a punchier film, but the execution is sure to please genre fans. The soundtrack is very strong, the cinematography well above average and the first half harbors some very creepy scenes. It's also the first time I've seen a film reference Spirited Away directly, which was pretty interesting. It's a shame the second half is a bit too drawn out, and the finale gets a bit silly, other than that this was a pretty great thriller. Guess I've got to check the original (South-Korean) film now.
