Su-jung was not interested in school until the new Korean teacher came. She is flattered by her attention and compliments on her work, and
she thrives on them. The film begins like a story about the power of positive reinforcements, encouraging people to love and care for children
who are left out. However, it takes an unexpected turn and reveals layers of complications behind forming relationships and paying attention
to others. Teacher¡¯s Grace is not quick to offer a solution for the problem, and it does not judge people. Along with a mature perspective on the
subject, this film has a solid narrative and a balanced style. [HWANG Miyojo]
