12 reviewsWhere do I begin again? What possessed me to watch train to Busan and then this back to back? What was not clicking in my head when I decided to make this decision? This movie broke me to my core. It was one of the most heartbreaking movies I had ever watched. The justice that had to be served was not serving. And I remember just watching some of the scenes with pure anguish like my hands were traveling. I was sweating profusely just waiting for something good to happen in the series and it never came like my hopes were up there and it never came, it never happened.
Omg it was so sad, but I loved that it brought awareness to the case and even helped bring some justice to the situation
