The story of Zhentai and Wenya guides the audience. Combined with the first scene of the mother dancing, I always thought it was a story of a mother's revenge, but in the last scene, I thought about the mother's peeing Taiyu after drinking the medicine and using her feet to wipe urine on the floor. In the end, most people may be led to think that the murderer is Tai Yu, but this is a movie about Feng Junhao! This film deliberately shows the all-round evil of the characters, such as the hit-and-run professor, Zhentae, who harmed his friends, the incompetent and irresponsible policeman, the rotten lawyer director, and the bullying and prostitution in the middle school.

The primary school students who wantonly spread rumors about the dead, the grandmother who let her granddaughter prostitute for money, and the old man whose photo appeared on his mobile phone to collect tattered, are all villains, from the old to the young, from the bottom to the top! The clip about Tai Yu's murder is just the old man's perspective. In fact, the director did not give a definite answer, but the truth is that anyone can be a murderer. No matter what the truth is, the mother chose to deceive herself because of her inability to accept the shock of reality, and because of her great and distorted love. There are many recurring objects, lines, and behaviors in this film, which are also solid scripts of Bong Joon-ho's films in the past.

    The mother protects her son with a low IQ with all her love, only to find out that the truth is not as expected. In addition to the almost crazy maternal love, the director clearly expresses his understanding of the world. Most of the people are immersed in the fantasy of non-truth. Even if they know the truth, they have to use needles to numb their spiritual acupuncture points. Whether it is because of love or indifference, we are all dancing extremely strange dances in indifferent lies.
