I was expecting a sad or bad ending but it was far happier than I thought. At the beginning maybe you think "this is a revenge story against the father" or "this is the story of a son who becomes his father" but it's not. It ends up being a story finding hope surprisingly. The end ALMOST made me feel bad for the father because he showed Jin that he still loved him as a son and still held affection for his wife but he still killed those other innocent girls. I didn't feel bad, however, because he was an adult who knew the consequences of murder. Jin mayve been born with psychopathic tendencies, he may've learned it from his father. His mother is not guiltless, she saw a demon being created, felt cornered and reacted the way she did. The only annoying part is that Jin forgave his father and then the dad killed himself. There was closure for them but no justice. Sure Jin served his sentence but it's hard to fault him as an accomplice when he grew up that and had no one else to rely on. He's not innocent but is not his fault.
