Ryu is a deaf young man who lives with his older sister, who has failed kidneys, and a left-wing radical girlfriend. In order to make a living, he had to get up early and late to smelt steel. When he walked out of the threshold of the factory, the blinding light caused his dizziness. Life is not an easy thing, it will make people look for other ways to survive when they are desperate.

After being cheated of money and kidneys, Ryu kidnaps the factory owner's daughter at the tip of his girlfriend. Unexpectedly, the elder sister used the method of cutting the pulse to create his soul regeneration and vigilance, and the heart-piercing pain... He came to the river and buried the elder sister with stones, but indirectly led to the drowning of the boss's daughter. After several fights, the boss electrocuted Ryu's girlfriend to death, cut off the veins on Ryu's feet, and shredded the body. It's time to burn all the jade and stone, and the terrorist group behind Ryu's girlfriend ends the boss's life with a stab.

In this world, there is no so-called Virgin Mary, there are only a hundred kinds of ants and all living beings that involve interests or emotions. Everyone is not absolutely good or evil, in fact, their nature is only good and desirable people. Their thoughts and feelings for life created them, but they could not be nurtured or forgiven by the creator, and their evil thoughts were vented and stimulated in a tangled web. In fact, the most essential problem lies in the social system. The injustice and the disadvantaged groups cannot bear the sorrow of the lightness of life.

Clouds and Rains aims to narrate a dark and dark overrun in a tragic, penetrating energy. Each individual is subject to the ubiquitous throbbing and cruelty. Their rounds of tricks are not revolving rounds, but a struggle between strength and life. The greatness of tragedy lies in a series of hooks and Purge the soul, including the philosophical soul.

Sister Ryu's suicide is the initial chain of the entire tragedy. Her death seems to be a kind of Chen Chen Xiangyin, but also a kind of perceptual cognition based on humanity. In fact, if she does not commit suicide, it will not lead to subsequent lives. Inexpensive slaughter, she just doesn't want to brew other people's misery on the feast of human flesh, she just intends to accuse a contractual humane conspiracy. Her mind was soaked with peace and compassion, so she couldn't understand Ryu's girlfriend's rashness and paranoia.

The appearance of the mentally handicapped brother by the river completely reflects the absurd characteristics of Park Chan-wook's film. It was because he tried to steal the necklace of the sleeping boss' daughter that he drowned. It is precisely because of the subversive and absurd elements of fate that this inhuman tragedy is created. The contingency of fate and the unknowable and incomprehensible factors are integrated in it, like the domino effect that the calculus of illusion brings to human beings.

Looking into the identity of the boss, he turned out to be a poor man, and because of his incompatibility with his wife, his thoughts and feelings were pinned on his daughter. He said to Ryu, I know you are a good man, but I had to kill you. There are also class hatreds and class gaps in between, and his way of capturing is different from the simple negligence of people at the bottom of the society. And his daughter's life was abandoned and exiled, the ultimate reason is that he did not report to the police in time.

A single scene is enough to comprehend the tastes of life. The depressing flower that the ink pad produces is not a flash in the pan, but has an essential and reasonable cause. Under the existing social system, all kinds of repression and damage will not become a thing of the past, but give an unbearable warning to a moral society that lacks humanity.
