The Devil You Know

About This Movie

So, 'The Devil You Know' is quite a ride. It starts off with Yu-jeong, this seemingly perfect English tutor who has it all together. You know the type—successful career, a doctor husband, a sweet little girl. But then she meets Sun-hee at this volunteer group, and things get... murky. The film dives into themes of trust, betrayal, and the dark side of seemingly idyllic lives. The pacing is tight, keeping you on edge, and the atmosphere is almost suffocating as Yu-jeong's life starts to unravel. The performances, especially from the lead, are quite compelling—they really sell the tension and paranoia. There are some practical effects that add to the authenticity of the thriller elements without going overboard.
