Eden
2012 · Movie · 94 min. · United States
Eden, based on a true story, is a good marriage of actress and character. Chung plays Hyun Jae, a shy Korean-American high school girl who wears braces and loves her parents. She has just a touch of a wild streak, though; she sneaks cigarettes behind her parents’ place of business, and then sneaks out to a bar with her best friend, even though she’s underage. Her innocent mischief leads to disaster when a good-looking firefighter picks her up; he’s actually the front man for a well-organized gang of criminals who enslave young women for sex.
