Englisch A court drama (loosely inspired by the early life of the controversial President Roh Mu-hyun) par excellence about the "moral" struggle with the machinery of state power that can easily keep up with best movies in this genre. In other words, if it weren't for the unfortunate opening half hour, which is superfluous and it doesn't say anything about the characters that the rest of the film wouldn't say better anyway. On top of that, what is really annoying is "wannabe relaxed style" that is rather embarrassing than funny and does not fit the rest of the movie. However, once the class meeting becomes dramatic and serious, it is almost perfect; especially when it all resembles in many ways similar trials in our country (however the other way around). ()
