    'One late autumn night, the disciple woke up crying. So the master asked the disciple, "Did you have a nightmare?"
    "No. "
    "Did you have a sad dream?"
    "No," said the disciple. "I had a sweet dream. "
    "Then why are you crying so sadly?"
    The disciple answered quietly, while wiping his tears, "Because the dream I had can't come true."'

    This is the saddest K-revenge flick ever. Now I get why it's titled "Dalkomhan insaeng" lit. "The Sweet Life." :(

    Good action film. Very moving, especially for an action film.

    Jee-woon Kim seems like the Korean Tarantino.
