A lawyer takes on a difficult case under risky circumstances in this thriller from South Korea. Yu Ji-yeon (Kim Yun-jin) is a successful defense attorney and the mother of an eight-year-old girl, Eun-yeong (Lee Ra-hye). Ji-yeon attends a school event with her daughter and becomes distraught when Eun-yeong goes missing. After twenty-four hours, Ji-yeon receives word that the girl has been abducted by kidnappers, and in exchange for Eun-yeong's freedom, the kidnappers demand an unusual ransom. Jeong Cheol-jin (Choi Myeong-su) has been accused of murder, and has little hope of being found innocent given the evidence stacked against him; if Ji-yeon will represent him in court and he goes free, Eun-yeong will be released to her. Desperate to see Eun-yeong returned to safety, Ji-yeon begins looking into Cheol-jim's case with the help of Kim Seong-yeol (Park Heui-sun), a longtime friend who is also a police detective. But given Eun-yeong's health and Seong-yeol's spotty relationship with his fellow officers, Ji-yeon fears she may not be able to crack the case in time to save her little girl's life. 7 Days (aka Sebeun Deijeu) began production in 2006 with Yun Je-gu as director and Kim Seon-ah playing Ji-yeon before Kim Yun-jin was recast in the lead and Won Shin-yeon took command of the director's chair. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi
