Ji-ran is struck by Yu-jin¡¯s thighs. Encountering the imaginary thou.
A radical story about what a teen girl yearned for. The fantasy is radical, just like its ending. For anyone who has ever attended an all-girls¡¯ school, this story should be heard at least once; the director adds frames of sexuality, lesbianism, and the politics of rumors, through which we are able to ponder the story one more time. The film¡¯s rhythmical editing, consisting of short cuts, is superior. [HWANG Miyojo]
