Short description

Hae-won works at a bank in Seoul, where her life is upended after she witnesses an attempted murder. Her work situation also deteriorates, and she takes a leave of absence, travelling to Moodo, a small island where she spent time as a child. There she looks up Bok-nam, a friend from those years. Bok-nam has written repeatedly asking her to visit, but Hae-won never replied.

On the island, Hae-won finds Bok-nam treated as a servant by the other residents. As the only young woman there, Bok-nam is used by the men and worked by the older women. She has tried to leave before and was brought back each time, and now she asks Hae-won to help her get away. Hae-won, preoccupied with her own troubles in Seoul, hesitates to get involved, and the situation between the two women and the islanders grows more dangerous.

Bedevilled was released in 2010 and runs 117 minutes. It is a Korean crime, drama, horror and thriller film, the first feature directed by Jang Cheol-soo, who later made Secretly, Greatly and Serve the People. Choi Kwan-Yeong wrote the screenplay, and the cast is led by Seo Young-hee as Bok-nam and Hwang Geum-hee as Hae-won, with fifty credited performers in all. On IMDb it holds 7.3 out of 10 from more than sixteen thousand votes, while on TMDB it stands at 7.2 from over five hundred. A critics' rating of 8.3 from eight reviews is higher than both audience scores.
