태석은 오토바이를 타고 집집을 돌며 열쇠구멍에 전단지를 붙인다. 그리고 오랫동안 전단지가 떨어져 나가지 않은 집을 열고 들어가 얼마간을 살고 나온다. 그렇게 살아가고 있던 태석은 어느 한 빈 집에서 멍 투성이의 한 여자를 만난다. 남편의 집착과 소유욕 때문에 피폐해지고 망가진 채로 유령처럼 살아가는 여자 선화. 하지만 태석은 그녀를 남겨둔 채 서둘러 집을 빠져 나온다.
그러나 자신을 데려가 주길 바라는 것 같던 선화의 공허한 눈빛을 떨쳐버릴 수가 없던 태석은 다시 그녀의 빈 집으로 돌아간다. 그리고 그곳에서 태석은 남편의 강제적인 탐닉에 몸부림치며 괴로워하는 선화를 보고야 만다. 참을 수 없는 광경 앞에 태석은 그만 손에 잡힌 3번 아이언 골프채를 휘둘러 선화를 구해 도망치는데...

Great Director! Customer Review Rated Bad 10 - 10 out of 10
I avoided this film for the longest time because the idea of breaking into people's homes just bother me a lot. I'm very glad that I watched it. The film is simple, bizarre and surrealistic at times, but the loneliness, emotional neglects and abuses in society are all too real. The ending and the one sentence commentary is a surprise. It sets Kim Ki Duk apart. I think that he is a great director with substance. I have high respect for him. Both Jae Hee and the very pretty Lee Seung Yeon did an excellent job and they were well suited for this film. The video quality is very good. It's highly recommended!

Finding solace in silence Customer Review Rated Bad 8 - 8 out of 10
"3-Iron" tells of a battered wife married to a brutal and thoroughly selfish husband and of a seemingly aimless young man who breaks into homes only to live in them, not to steal anything (other than the food he eats). The young man breaks into the battered wife's home and, after he is kind to her, they strike up one of the most unusual friendships in film history. Perhaps afraid to spoil this weird kinship they share with a jarring note, they remain silent with each other.

Eventually they are caught for trespassing in someone's home. The wife is returned to her husband. Will the relationship with the young man now come to an end?

How "3-Iron" answers this question takes on an almost mystical quality that turns the movie into something akin to an allegorical folk tale. Not everything works in this film, but I must give director Kim major kudos for following the audacity of his unique vision, for shying away from what in other hands might have become prurient, and for creating a beautiful tale of two wounded people reaching out to each other.

Very highly recommended.

OK but...... Customer Review Rated Bad 6 - 6 out of 10
I get it, the movie is taking risks and artistically it is interesting but unless you are going into with this in mind, the entertainment value is not that high. It is quite frustrating that the two main characters do not talk in the entire movie. Which is fine, but there is no explanation as to why. Why are they breaking into people's houses and doing good deeds. Is he a hallucination she has created, it seems to be the case. I felt the movie was a bit slow and a bit boring but that was just me. I realize it has gotten stellar reviews so if you are intrigued by unique and artistic storylines then this one will suit you just fine.

IT'S DIFFERENT Customer Review Rated Bad 8 - 8 out of 10
I DO LIKE JAE HEE'S ACTING. ITS TO TOO HARD TO ACT WITHOUT SAYING A SINGLE WORD...AS IN. MAYBE THAT'S WHY HE WON THE BEST NEW ACTOR. DIFFICULT TO CONVEY A MESSAGE IF YOUR FACIAL EXPRESSION IS NOT GOOD, KUDOS FOR JAE HEE. LOVE THIS MOVIE, DIFFERENT FROM CHUNYANG. MORE MOVIES FOR HIM, PLEASE

thought provoking Customer Review Rated Bad 9 - 9 out of 10
i bought this video when it came out in 04 and had mixed feeling about it. it was vague at the ending but well done and very beaultiful in the portraying of the charactors feelings. i lent it to a friend and never got it back. i saw it in the foreign movie section and deicided to see it again. this is definately a see again movie. you will get more out of the next time you see it no matter how many times that is. it is open to your own interpretation and imagination which may change how you think of it the next time you see it. it is so complex and expresses so mush without words. i am definately going to buy it again. the actors were perfect for each other and their roles. it is not for everyones taste but if you like it, you will love it.
