Physicists actually believe that the world is, on a subatomic level, merely a weave of all sorts of other particles, that they exist in relationship to another particle. There is this growing consciousness that all particles, at a subatomic level, are interconnected. Psychometry attempts to piece together this connectivity and that's what makes it a brilliant film.
Using semi-conventional detective storyline and a truly unknown protagonist (you are at an odds, who is the protagonist?), we find ourselves enraptured in a cinematography of beauty, cunning, and wit. Staging and the lighting depict a very very well astute director, acting is tremendously good, the violence just right, and the photography shows much more than you think. Director Kwon Ho-Jung composed a brilliant story of this psychic character who has had horrible experiences with his power, until he learns that his power can save people he is lead on a gruelling adventure with detective Chun-dong.
