Watched the director's cut, so this is a spoiler review. The director's cut version, titled "Another Memory", is indeed different from the public release version, not just a simple addition and modification.

First of all, in the guide and cut version, everything is narrated by the male protagonist, because the prosecutor wants the male protagonist to retell the diary he wrote in full. Therefore, it would be unreasonable if there is a separate part of the story about Police Officer Min. Some are smoke bombs made by the director, some are for the advancement of the plot, and some are actually because the male editor is just passed on to Police Officer Min.

The guide and cut version has been confirmed that Officer Min really exists and is a good person. The reason why he was involved is because he bumped into the male protagonist and transported the corpse, and then began to investigate the male protagonist, so the male protagonist decided

The last recording didn't disappear, because it didn't exist in the first place. It was the story of the male editor. The female lead was aphasia. One might be a mental blow, and the other might be a drug effect, because the male lead gave his daughter more than one injection. Maybe The effect of the needle is not only coma, but the bug here is that the daughter can't speak, but can type and write. If she hasn't reported her father, it may be because of family affection, or her spirit may not be stable, so it is a time bomb.

The male protagonist's head is missing a piece, which should be combined with the police officer Min's story he made up. He first killed his father, then his sister couldn't stand this behavior and committed suicide, and then her mother was so devastated that she smashed part of his head with an iron , so he killed his mother again, and since then he has been mainly misogynistic, and occasionally kills scumbag men, but it is estimated that men do not kill many.

As for whether the male protagonist has Alzheimer's or not, I am a little unclear. First of all, when he does everything to blame, he has to be organized and clear. He has to have a good memory when retelling his diary. If he really has Alzheimer's, he can do it. Did it go so well? But if there is no Alzheimer's, the doctor would not be able to give him perjury, so it should just be made up by the screenwriter. There is, but he is still a thief.

This movie is indeed a bit brain-burning, and it is estimated that the public release version is even more brain-burning, because the director version is actually very clear and understandable, but I just need to make a little bit of the overall logic. After all, a big reversal in the last few minutes overturned the previous one. everything.

But the male lead really exploded!
