EPITAPH

Epitaph is a 2007 South Korean drama/thriller film directed by Jung Sik and Jung Beom-sik; and starring Jin Goo, Kim Eung-soo, Ko Joo-yeon, Kim Bo-kyeong, Lee Dong-gyoo, and Kim Tae-woo.

The film is primarily set in 1942 during the Japanese colonial time of South Korea, but it is framed by scenes set in 1979.
In a hospital back in 1941 doctors witness how death becomes the cleanser and sole healer during a very disturbing period of time. In 1979, Dr. Park receives an old photo album from his twenties in 1941 when mysterious things befell him and his colleagues. PARK was bound by his parents to marry a girl whom he never met, but fell in love with a dead woman who happened to be his arranged marriage. Meanwhile, a little girl who was apparently the only survivor a car accident was haunted by ghosts every night. After two doctors (a married couple) involved in these two stories return to their hospital from Tokyo, a series of serial murders occurs around them. (Synopsis taken from www.hancinema.net).
