Jang Keun Suk as Pearson - that is his first villain role, a disturbed, young Korean-American accused of stabbing a student to death. Keun-Suk had to speak his lines in English throughout the film, a job he did well, according to BeyondHollywood.com: "Jang Keun Suk performs very well as the sullen Pearson."
Film critics and moviegoers also praised Keun-Suk for his acting. A movie review posted on LondonKoreanLinks.com said: "The casting is cleverly done with Jang Geun-suk as the 'innocent' accused, his popularity allowing the audience to feel some empathy and warmth to an otherwise unattractive character. He does well in this role, a break from his normal cheerful persona and, combined with the fact he has to speak English through most of the film, it's quite impressive. Its not perfect American accent of course, but it plays a vital part in itself."

based on true story of Iwaetwon which shocked Korea when a college student Jo Jong-Pil is found dead at Burger King in 1997. Two teeneagers, Arthur Patterson who was son of American service member and Korean mother and Edward Lee, become suspects but eventually freed due lack of evidence and the case was never solved. It stars Jang Geun-suk as Arthur Patterson and Jeong Jin-young as his lawyer
