I really admire the way they brought this story. First 5 minutes, i could feel lot of anger because of the way perpetrators treat their victim. Next you feel bad for the victims, and how producers, police, and pers trying to catch this man is executed perfectly(editing, cinematography, scoring, and the interviewees dialogues). The overwhelming feeling ended when you see the perpetrators finally arrested. It's so satisfying. Online sexual harassment has been affecting woman for decades, yet very few of them have the courage to speak up because of the trauma. This movie successfully brings awareness to this kind of case, so our daughters can be careful, and we can teach our boys to stop doing this kind of thing( victims and perpetrators are both underaged)

The title seems very shallow, but the music actually ruined the documentary. This is an interesting and important topic and I am glad they shine a light on it. There is an enormous problem with videotaping people without them knowing about it in South Korea. It seems demanding pictures and blackmail has become a problem to. This also speaks volumes of how woman are viewed. There should be better education about this in the country and I am happy to see they share the problem worldwide. This might help change how they act and see woman and in this case children over time. I am not saying all men are abusers, but enough are to make it a real problem. Only thing that actually made me take breaks was the music. It was supposed to build suspense I think, but it was very stressful. I was so stressed and annoyed I had to take 5-6 breaks from watching this short documentary. Not something I usually do.

Its a good watch to create awareness among the people. I could not find any issue with editing or direction although could have been slight better. Social media chatting apps like whatsapp and telegram should restrict */nudity on their platform to prevent such activities happening.

I loved how this documentary highlighted one of the most widespread problems in our society or rather to say in our world, an irrefutable documentary, thanks to the director and everyone who worked to spread security and peace in the world.

A serious cybercrime and sexual exploitation towards young girls that everyone should take notes. Choi Jin-sung brought cautious interpretation of NTH Room Case though kinda slow and predictable. At least the criminals were being exposed.

A brilliantly researched and revealing film of one of the worst dark sides of internet life. The number of girls, around the world, who are victims of these disgusting perverts and sick minded scumbags is very likely in the millions. We all know (at least the more aware of us) that children are youthfully, and childishly, stupid and suffer from youthful ignorance; its a fact of life in the learning curve and development of the minds of children. If proper use of the social side of the internet was a constant lesson of schools, much of this cyber horror experienced by young girls/boys could be avoided. Its not taught though because adults and parents are to blame..."Oh! I don't want my child being shown filth like that" is the usual outcry. The people behind schools are just cowards also! Show this to your children and help them avoid this kind of online horror!

As hard as it is to watch, parents need to see this. We all know there are dangers on the internet however this is just horrible and it only takes one click to ruin your child's life. And it is real - I can tell you that it is worldwide and it just doesn't happen to girls as I recently saw a news warning in Chicago suburbs where a teen boy left a suicide note describing the same exact thing that happened to him. When I first heard about it I thought how could this happen. Thank goodness the investigation took place and the biggest offenders were arrested but the after affects and more dangers are still out there.

This is a case that everyone should know and be alerted for. But the direction of this documentary ruins the topic. I feel they only spent two days to interview all the journalists in a decorated room. And spent two years to create awesome music and anime for it. They didn't even interview the criminals, the victims, and those chat participants. Those are the questions I'm curious about. Why did the criminal do it? What did the victims think when they receive the first blackmail? Why didn't they call the police? What did the chat members think? Did they feel guilty or happy watching those videos? All the questions are not answered in this long long film. And tbh I don't understand why they chose the journalists' view to tell the story. I think that's the least important part of the story.

The subject of this documentary may be hard to enjoy, however it is interesting and engaging. What makes this a little masterpiece is the stunning cinematography, editing, photography and set design. A classic South Korean little gem.
