So, she's a whore... and?

Warning: Spoilers
This movie is about a girl falling in love with tongue piercing, tattoo, and binge drinking.

The movie starts with the girl meeting a guy called "Ama" in a club, who has a 'split tongue'. Being a whore she is, she sleeps with him that night, and they start going out. She really likes the lizard-like 'split tongue', so she gets her new boyfriend to take her to a tattoo/piercing parlor. There, she sees cool tattoos they offered, and wants to get one as well. Being a whore she is, she sleeps with the tattoo guy for payment. Then keeps going there for more sex and slowly getting the tattoo done.

Eventually, the tattoo is completed, and she loses purpose in life. What she takes up next is binge drinking. Then Ama suddenly died, and although she didn't give a crap about him and enjoyed getting banged by the tattoo guy every week, she loses her mind for an unknown reason. Then it turns out the tattoo guy probably raped and killed her boyfriend...

Yeah, the script is a joke. I think the lead character is supposed to be somewhat smart and slightly a rebel, but the actress who played it was totally unconvincing, and spoke like a really dumb "gyaru". The result of this godly combination of crappy script and actress is that the leading character is a dumb whore, and nothing more. She didn't know the name and age of the guy she lived with for months, and apparently didn't care who killed him.

Although the actor who played tattoo guy was somewhat good, this movie was a pointless waste of time. I have no idea what the director was trying to express in this film. Maybe it was just a softcore porn.
