What's so great about this movie is you feel like you are watching it through the eyes of Hyun Woo, the schizophrenic. Hyun Woo is searching for inner peace, but he has a beautiful heart. Because of this, your not sure if what you're seeing is really happening or not. There is definitely a message in this movie, but you may need to watch it a few times to fully understand what it's about. Also, there may be many different interpretations of the meaning, and I think they are all valid. I missed a lot the first time I watched this, and appreciated more when I re-watched it. The acting is outstanding. I applaud Jang Hyuk with a standing ovation.
I hesitate recommending this movie because it's so disturbing in parts, I really feel some people with very much dislike it. Because it's confusing and somewhat open ended, some people may not feel satisfied. It really depends on what kind of tolerance you have for oddities.

This is NOT a family movie. This movie was recommended to me and I watched it without even knowing what it was about. I love elephants so the name immediately caught my attention. Anyway, the story is unusual and by the end I wasn’t sure what I had just watched. It is a twisted, artsy movie.
Honestly, I love twisted movies and this was just up my alley, but I’m not sure just anyone would like it. View at your own risk.

this is a surreal mind-trip that i have to say, donno if i figured out right - as until the last moment it kept me guessing, if the conclusions i came too were right or i needed medication to "get" this movie.ironically a while back wanted to watch this cause of the loft scene, though this was the original, to a remake i saw (The Loft 2014) made in the US. and watching this - it so isn't! it might have started out similar with the paranoid Hyun Woo, wiping down his loft that had evidence of bloody violence's on him and in that place - getting ride of evidence while the cops were at his door - but that's about it.. everything else goes off the deep end and u always wondering "is this really happening" or is everything in Hyun Woo's mind. slowly started to wonder if the original gf he couldn't get over - did she exist? did Jun Hyuk, who seemed to disappear into thin air never to be heard of again (well his body - idk just confused)¯\_(ツ)_/¯
this is ok for a one off and nobody does crazy better then Jang Hyuk - so acting was stop on by the lot. i could care less about the erotica / nudity / sex-scenes as the psychological mind-f*ck was enough to not make it even register. plus it went to further Min Suk's character and justify Su Yeon's action (which aint justifiable, but the whole group was just messed-up. and there was no real backstory offered, to explain everyone psychosis - so left confused).

I hope next time I feel a terrible oppa thirst after watching shows like Healer or YWCFS - i will turn to this movie for a bit of thirst quencher. Clink! Clink!!
