The rich and influential have been successfully buying justice, leaving the underprivileged at a disadvantage. This concept is represented by Hwang Dong Hyuk in his Korean movie, Silenced starring Gong Yoo and Jung Yu Mi, released in 2011. It is based on a real life incident covered by Gong Ji Young in her book ‘The Crucible’ which happened at Gwangju Inhwa’s school for the hearing impaired in South Korea. The movie shows the struggle of an art teacher seeking justice for his students who were sexually and physically abused by some members of the faculty. With exceptional performance by the cast, the story masterfully portrays a battle against the unjust judicial system where the weak are eventually silenced when put up against the influential.
