The ending was a little rushed - I found the torture scene really horrifying despite its relative brevity, and that kind of overwhelmed the ending for me. I wish we understood the role that Jeong-eun had to play a bit more.

The A storyline was a lot less interesting to me than the files themselves. It started strong, but lost some solidity toward the end.
