    In the first movie I watched with Brother Runhe, he said that monsters are also lonely. After thinking about it for many years, although I think Koreans are so stupid, 오빠 always has some weird ideas, but his special Korean side is very...

    Pouring formalin down the drain at the beginning is really...getting better after that. Created a monster with a dinosaur model that generally has no self. There is really nothing to watch except for the few scenes in the trailer that have been eye-catching. It's too childish to insist on political...

    I didn't expect to be deceived by this name and type for so many years. It should not be said that it is "The Monster of the Han River", but "The Monster of Korea" may be more appropriate. Bright irony and political drama, and the record box office once again makes people think about the public meaning behind it. In contrast to us, the current hit and box office record is actually a pink movie. Sadly, it is not easy to open up the wisdom of the people. The road is...

    Korean films like this are always full of warmth and funny, the plot is still relatively compact, but the prelude is a little longer, which is more...

    A kind of violent aesthetics. The chasing, running and jumping in the previous paragraph is just a licensed Korean movie. The last human-beast war filled with yellow smoke was a fatal move, which hit the national character and national pain. Korean movies have said that people are monsters and the system is a monster for so many years. In "Monster of the Han River", in the face of real monsters, you can see the helplessness under the blood and the fear behind the...

    The emotional line is good, but the style is not my thing, so I can't appreciate...

    The Republic of Korea is invincible

    The eunuch version was broadcast on the movie station before, but recently I downloaded it and watched it again.
    The stick, as always, believes that 1. The bad consequences are all caused by foreigners (the United States), and the initiator is the Americans forcing employees to dump chemical raw...

    normal, normal

    I just watched this movie, and it felt weird. Haha

    , what did I feel after watching this movie: the love of a father for his daughter? Mutated monsters caused by unethical scientists? A great father? America's yellow biochemical? ? ? In short, there is a little bit of that, and that one is...

The Host quotes

  • US Doctor in Morgue: Mr. Kim,

    [running a finger along the counter]

    US Doctor in Morgue: I hate dust more than anything.

    Young Korean Doctor: Oh, I will clean again.

    US Doctor in Morgue: You don't have to clean up now. Why don't you dump this first?

    Young Korean Doctor: That's formaline.

    US Doctor in Morgue: Formaldehyde, to be precise. To be even more precise, dirty formaldehyde. Every bottle is coated with layers of dust. Pour 'em into the sink.

    Young Korean Doctor: Excuse me?

    US Doctor in Morgue: Just empty every bottle to the very last drop.

    Young Korean Doctor: It's just - They are toxic chemicals, and the regulations state...

    US Doctor in Morgue: Pour them right down the drain, Mr. Kim.

    Young Korean Doctor: If I pour them in the drain, they'll run into the Han River.

    US Doctor in Morgue: That's right. Let's just dump them in the Han River.

    Young Korean Doctor: But, you know, this is not just any toxic chemicals...

    US Doctor in Morgue: The Han River is very broad, Mr. Kim. Let's try to be broad-minded about this. Anyway, that's an order. So, start pouring.

  • Park Nam-il: [Points his gun precariously at Gang-du, who is sitting on the other side of the room, sound asleep] Look at that... Isn't that amazing? In this situation?

    Park Nam-Joo: Wake him up, there's no time.

    Park Hie-bong: Let him sleep a minute. He needs to sleep every so often.

    Park Nam-il: Should we leave him here? He's no help anyway.

    Park Hie-bong: Kids, wait a minute. Sit down. In your view, is Gang-du really so pathetic?

    Park Nam-il: Yup.

    Park Nam-Joo: Yes.

    Park Hie-bong: You wouldn't know it, but he was a really smart kid. For example, when he was two, he'd sit in front of the village store, and everyone walking by would ask him directions. That's how smart he looked. As you know, when he was young, I was out of my mind, hardly ever coming home, staying out all night. And this poor boy with no mother, he must have been so hungry. Going around, doing seo-ri all the time. Raising himself an organic farm. Whenever he got caught, he'd get beaten up. In this way, he lacked protein when he needed it most. So that's why, every now and then, he dozes off like a sick rooster. I think something up there...

    [He gestures to Gang-du's brain]

    Park Hie-bong: ...must have gone wrong too.

    [Nam-il starts as he nearly falls asleep]

    Park Hie-bong: Have any of you heard it? The heartbreak of a parent who's lost a child... When a parent's heart breaks, the sound can travel for miles. So I really need to say this to you. Be as nice to Gang-du as you can. Don't scold him, okay?
