Failan by Hae-sung Song (2001, South Korea)



A heart-wrenching story. Choi Min-sik proves that he's a great actor even before Oldboy here, and Cecilia Cheung simply shines as the poor Chinese girl lost in a foreign country. The ending was painful, effective I would say. Korean melodramas don't get much better than this.

4/5 stars
