After Kyeong-Min's suicide, every single person in the film picks on a peer student ; so that they could free the burden. The chosen target was her former-best friend Young-Hee (The movie indicates that they might have been more than just "friends"). Detective accuses Young-Hee as detective found a murder weapon on her hand . Disbelief on Young-Hee is shown everywhere even when she is beaten up by peer student; not a single person including her dad or her teacher defends her.
Then, everything turns around after failed suicide attempt of Young-Hee.
Ever since then, people consider Young-Hee as a best friend and martyr at the same time, trying to comfort her. The peer student who beat Young-Hee up suddenly found another victim to pick on, forcing her to make fake statement on teacher, due to the fact that the teacher didn't help Young-Hee out.
Throughout the film, we can see how easy 'revenge' or 'lynch' escalates especially when people don't want to accept the responsibilities.
The part I didn't like in this film was kiss scene between two girls. I don't have anything against homosexuality in film, nor kiss scene between two high school students. However, the scene itself didn't blend in ( maybe, the director was trying to show there could have been something more than a friendship)
