Kim Ki-young’s style is similar to Hitchcock when looking at the film’s interesting camera angles, & unusual camera movements, zooming in and out from one room to another with a smooth technique. Every shot has a purpose, even the littlest, seemingly random things in the house helped in adding to the sinister feel of the movie.

I really like that fade out-fade in the transition of scenes, especially when compared to films nowadays with their idle editing styles. One of the major techniques that were used in this film that I find very interesting is the scenes of the fil that were filmed through the glass doors.

(22:06) In this scene, the father had just finished serving his wife and family food and is about to stand up to go and receive his guests. The camera movements in this scene are very genuine as the movement also makes it seem like the camera stood up the bed as well with the father’s character. As the film goes on it is noticeable that the images become somewhat distorted, I am not sur this this was done intentionally or unintentionally but this however gives the film a dreamlike feel which is not clear at the beginning but made clearer at the end of the movie when we discover that all of this never actually happened and it turned out to be a figment of someone’s imagination.
