A young girl named So-won lives an idyllic life with her working
class parents Dong-hoon and Mi-hee. One day on her way to school, So-won
is kidnapped, beaten and raped by a male stranger before being left for
death. Fortunately, she survives and is able to call an ambulance.
The police notify Dong-hoon and Mi-hee of the attack and they
rush to the emergency ward. Upon their arrival at the hospital, they are
horrified by the extent of So-won's injuries. So-won suffers from
multiple internal injuries and has to undergo major surgeries. Dong-hoon
is advised by a surgeon that So-won will have to wear a colostomy bag
for the rest of her life. Once So-won regains consciousness, she is
able to identify her attacker with the help of Jung-sook, a
psychiatrist.
So-won's attacker is arrested at his home, and the case becomes a
media sensation much to the horror of her family and friends. When the
reporters converge at the hospital, Dong-hoon takes So-won to a
different room and hides her from the media attention. So-won exhibits
symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder
and briefly mistakes her father for her attacker, screaming at him as
he tries to fix her colostomy bag. Dong-hoon is heartbroken by this
episode, and is further hurt when So-won refuses to look at him or speak
to him.
Mi-hee initially refuses psychological help for her daughter as
she wishes for So-won to resume her normal life. However, she relents
after understanding her daughter's mental state and enlists the help of
Jung-sook. Dong-hoon struggles to pay for medical expenses and calls his
friend and manager, Gwang-sik, with the intent of quitting his job to
help take care of his family.
The film is based on a true story, the infamous Nayoung Case in 2008, in which an 8-year-old girl, named "Na-young" in the Korean press, was raped
and beaten by a drunk 57-year-old man in a public toilet. The court
sentenced the man to only 12 years in prison, which caused outrage in
the country due to the brutality of the crime and the man's history of
physical and sexual violence.
The only thing that I want to say is that you should watch this movie.
And if you don't watch it, be regret :( I cried a lot, the acting was
incredible, totally love the girl. In my thoughts, this may be a movie
about father and daughter and I was completely fallen for it! How poor
the little girl was, I can't imagine what she had been through! Her
acting was very good, I even thought she had really been through that
tragedy. And her Father was really really a emotional man, not like
what I thought he would be at the beginning! He made me think of my
Father and I just cried a lot!
