Love Child is a 2014 South Korean-American documentary film directed by Valerie Veatch.
[5] The film narrates the story of a South Korean couple, who were immersed in an online game called Prius Online,[6] while their baby named Sarang died of malnutrition.
Love Child received mixed to positive reviews upon its premiere at the 2014 Sundance Film Festival.
Christie Ko in his review for ScreenCrave gave the film 6/10 and said that "This documentary is not an exhaustive look at the addiction to gaming, but does a good job of explaining this incident of the couple and their baby in South Korea.
"[7] While, Daniel Fienberg of HitFix said in his review that Love Child never attempts to cheapen the tragedy of Sarang's death, but like "Web Junkie," it wants to lay out a pattern of behavior that might seem a little extreme, but also won't feel that outlandish to anybody who counts the Internet among the spaces in which they feel most social.
