Shin Hae-Sun is such a gem! I’ve been a fan since Angel’s Last Mission: Love. Brave Citizen was such a satisfying watch for me; the justice she serves feels so empowering. But Following? I felt creeped out the entire time, and not in a good way. The story’s twisty moments were intriguing, but I struggled with how uncomfortable some scenes felt. I guess thrillers aren’t my thing!

I wasn’t sold on Following. The concept of a creepy stalker spying on a social media influencer is too close to real life for my taste. It made me super uncomfortable, and not in an enjoyable suspense way. However, Brave Citizen was such a fun and refreshing film! I loved seeing Shin Hae-Sun as a badass teacher.

I loved the suspense in Following! It’s not your typical thriller—it’s more psychological, and it really gets under your skin. That twist with the clean apartment blew my mind. However, I felt the pacing dragged in the middle. Byun Yo-Han’s character is fascinating but also frustratingly slow to develop

I watched Following because of Shin Hae-Sun, but I couldn’t fully enjoy it. The story felt too unsettling, and Koo Jung-Tae’s creepy behavior made my skin crawl. I can appreciate the acting, but it’s not a film I’d recommend unless you really enjoy dark thrillers.

Shin Hae-Sun and Byun Yo-Han were mesmerizing in Following! I loved how the movie kept shifting your perspective on who was the real danger. But some parts felt dragged out, especially when Koo Jung-Tae was ‘investigating.’ The psychological twists made up for it, though!

Shin Hae-Sun as So Shi-Min was so inspiring! I loved how the movie balanced humor with meaningful themes like bullying and self-sacrifice. Watching her stand up to injustice, especially with her boxing skills, was so satisfying. Some parts were a bit over the top, but that’s what made it fun for me. Definitely a must-watch if you’re into action-comedies

Brave Citizen was an absolute blast. I’m a sucker for vigilante justice, and seeing a teacher go full boxing champ on a bully was thrilling. The pacing felt a little uneven in some spots, but Shin Hae-Sun carried the movie like a pro. Lee Jun-Young as Han Su-Kang made such a great antagonist too!

 

[Sideways]

As someone who’s read the webtoon, I think the movie did a great job capturing the essence of the story. Shin Hae-Sun gave So Shi-Min a lot of depth, making her struggles relatable. I did feel like some side characters weren’t fleshed out enough, but the main storyline more than made up for it.

 

[Tampalpuke]

Shin Hae-Sun is so versatile! I loved her in Mr. Queen, and Brave Citizen just added to my admiration. Her action scenes were awesome! Following? Not as much. The pacing dragged for me, and Koo Jung-Tae’s creepiness felt one-dimensional at times
