The moment curiosity is heightened by the vampire story that begins with a stylish opening, the film soon reminds us that the real world is even more cruel. If you were to translate the fantasy classic that the easiest way to live is by sucking someone's life into a 21st-century Korean vampire story would be real estate speculation with marriage as the premise. And the mystery of human history appears without exception: family. A family, which is a community of economic interests and an emotional community, is sometimes crueler than others and tries to bind each other with money because of the fear of losing its protective layer. Although Silver Apricot is based on popular themes such as a problematic family and a being that does not believe in love, it depicts the protagonist facing the world cheerfully without losing the essence of the life she wants. Vampires who suck other people's blood do not die from crosses, garlic, or not being able to drink blood—rather, having to entrust my fate to someone else is itself a shackle and death. To move into a new world, you have no choice but to destroy the previous world or break away from its safety and move outside the framework. (Sung MOON)
