Movie Review: Seo Ye-ji Stars In ‘Recalled’, A Heartbreaking And Thrilling K-Movie

South Korea’s cinematic landscape never failed to amaze the audiences with their takes on thriller movies. One of the underrated movies released in the past few months starred popular actress Seo Ye-ji, who is famous for her character Ko Mun-Yeong in It’s Okay to Not Be Okay drama.

Recalled, a suspenseful but at the same time an undemanding mystery thriller was written and directed by Seo You-min, the same screenwriter of April Snow movie back in 2005 and Happiness in 2007. Originally, the movie was released on 21st April 2021 where it surpassed all the records and ranked at first place in the Korean box office on the first day of its release. With a total of 19,281 audiences, the movie almost grossed out US$2.67 million and 331,761 admissions.

What ‘Recalled’ Is About:

Recalled tells a story of a woman named Soo-jin who wakes up in a hospital bed one day and found out that she had lost her memory. Standing next to her bed is her dotting husband, Ji-hoon that takes her home after she was discharged. With her lost memories, Soo-jin begins to experience hallucinations and claim that she is seeing the future. At the same time, her husband Ji-hoon seems to keep a dark secret from her.

The story unfolds as Soo-jin struggles to believe either her husband or her own eyes.

What Can Be Said About ‘Recalled’:

This Korean movie is absolutely intriguing. From the first scene, the sense of seriousness and urgency never leave the air. At some point in this movie, it makes the audiences doubt every character including Soo-jin herself. In light of the casts that were good at portraying their characters especially Seo Ye-Ji.

The awaited part of any thriller movie would be the plot twist but in Recalled, it did not happen once, yet twice. It is not some cliche and expected twist but definitely something that will blow the audiences’ minds off.

Different from the Korean movie ‘The Call’ that worked on a similar theme, Recalled includes a very heartfelt strand to the point it will leave you emotional at the end of the movie.
