thread_title:  External links modified 

message: @Drmies Recently, you removed an entry on the reaction of the real-life inspiration to this film, and your reasoning provided as to why said entry is irrelevant was: "salacious material unrelated to the movie, content sourced to social media focused on celeb trivia, and inappropriate for a BLP matter even if indirectly: the victims have family still. in short, his opinions about the move are utterly irrelevant."
Prior precedent exists for the reactions of biopic figures, including those who have committed heinous crimes, to be featured on their article. To list a few:
The Wolf of Wall Street has an entire section dedicated to Jordan Belfort's reaction, in addition to that of Nadine Maculoso, who was a victim of domestic violence at his hands.
Goodfellas mentions the reaction of Henry Hill, a mobster who murdered dozens of Mafia enemies: "The cast did not meet Henry Hill until a few weeks before the film's premiere. Liotta met him in an undisclosed city; Hill had seen the film and told the actor that he loved it."
The Social Network mentions Zuckerbergs' negative reaction to the film.
American Gangster also has an entire section dedicated to Frank Lucas's reaction.
The sourcing of the quote can be improved- a cursory search quickly resulted in more sources.
Given that this film is directly inspired (to a metafictional level as the final shot is Park staring into the camera, as if the viewer himself might be the killer) by the chain of events by Lee Choon-jae, I argue it is very relevant for the article, even if he did not have much to say. The neutral, muted reaction by Lee to the film which directly addresses his crimes adds meaning to reader's understanding of both the real-life case and the film- it means that the final scene was indeed acknowledged by its intended recipient and met with no reaction.
Not to mention that although Lee does fall under BLP, the idea that such details shouldn't be included out of respect for the families is odd- why would either this article, on a film that turns the murders into fiction, or the article on his crimes be on this wiki? I think WP:NOTCENSORED applies in this case. 
I won't be re-adding the detail until a third opinion/consensus can be met, but I hope this explains my case as to why it merits inclusion.

thread_title:  Dispute over including the reaction of Lee Choon-jae to the movie 

message: It states that "The coroner discovers semen in the latest victim, and Seo arranges for the sample to be sent to the U.S. for DNA testing that will confirm if Hyeon-gyu is the killer.". But 
1. Semen was found ON the victim, not IN the victim. 
2. The victim with the semen evidence was Park Hyun-sook (first victim) not Shin Jung-ah (latest victim).
