Samaritan, the Samaritan is an offshoot of the Israelites, and in Christian culture means someone who is brave and helpful.
The Good Samaritan Law, simply put, means doing the right thing with kindness and being forgiven even if the result is bad. Conversely, witnesses who see dealing with danger and who do not take action when there is no harm to themselves are legally and morally responsible. Good Samaritan is used to refer to a person who has neither legal nor contractual obligations, but who out of the moral demands of their hearts to help others without compensation.
In the movie, Jie Rong believes that her assistance in communication can not only raise money for them to go to Europe, but also help men find faith. So she told the story of the Indian Posommita. The story is that Posumito had sex with men, and then let them get rid of the sea of desire, found faith, and found a destination. (“Generally sentient beings are satisfied with their lustful desires, but soon they will have lustful and vexatious needs. Posmita is different. From looking at, holding hands, holding, kissing, etc., all sentient beings can be freed from lust forever. . This is obviously the method of 'freeing from desire'")
So Jierong will chat with men during aid dating. She really doesn't think she's doing it just for the money, which means she thinks it will be a win-win.
Yi Jun is Jie Rong's best friend, and they want to go to Europe. Find customers for Jierong. Yi Jun was very disgusted with the aid of dating, and scoffed at those guests. She has an element of same-sex love for Jierong. So for those guests, even more anger and rejection. Her mom died, but she has a police dad who loves her very, very much.
Later, during a police round, Jie Rong jumped down from the upstairs and was seriously injured because she didn't want to be arrested (she jumped down with a smile on her face, no panic expression at all, I don't really understand this place, maybe it was Jie Rong Rong believes that being caught has destroyed her win-win goal), and her last wish is to meet a certain male guest again. So Yi Jun went to find the man, and finally had to use sex (except Ye Ye) as a bargaining chip to let the man go to see Jie Rong one last time. But it was still too late, Jierong died. This is equivalent to the director denying Jie Rong's belief, which is more just his own wishful thinking.
Yijun lost her love, so the money she grabbed was meaningless. She originally chose to burn both the money and the guest diary, but suddenly changed her choice. She was going to give the money back to the male guests and sleep with them again. I think Yi Jun is like experiencing something a loved one experiences.
During this process, Yi Jun's police father discovered this incident by coincidence. For this father, it was simply unacceptable. He didn't stop his daughter directly, but secretly prevented these guests from actually having sex with her daughter. A lot of unfortunate things happened in this process. For example, there was a man who didn't have a real relationship and apologized to Yijun's father, but Yijun's father went to his house and humiliated him in front of that family member, and finally committed suicide by jumping off the building. (We ask, is this the best way to go about this?)
But once he didn't have time to stop his daughter, a man had sex with her daughter. He killed the man in a fit of rage. After that, he and his daughter went back to his mother's grave. When they came back, he told Yi Jun the story of Mother Teresa. The daughter woke up in the middle of the night and went outside to cry. Dad sees this, maybe he understands that his daughter has returned to the right path and will never do that again. And Yijun is also very self-blame, especially for her father, she even dreamed that her father killed her in the dream.
It's just that her father only did one thing, teaching her to drive. Then while she was practicing, she turned herself in. Dad said to her: Now you can be alone, Dad is no longer with you.
=========
The story is generally like this. Why did Kim Ki-duk tell such a story? I personally feel that Kim Ki-duk will throw out a lot of opinions in one of his films. For example, for Jierong, her beliefs are two different things from other people's beliefs. When you use your own beliefs to compare with the public, you cannot find a balance.
Why can't the father face his daughter directly when he first found out about it? He kept going to those men, but was the problem with the men? The daughter is not depraved, but she has her own naive thoughts. If communication was made earlier, wouldn't there be no chance to solve the problem at all? On the other hand, if the father did not kill him out of control, then this problem would not be so helpless in the end.
Therefore, if Kim Ki-duk wants to make us reflect on something through the film, we may find various things from this film to make ourselves reflect on life.
Yijun, can't blame her for anything, she didn't go to have a relationship with a man for money. She was just making up for her guilt towards Jie Rong. So at the end of the story in this movie, Yi Jun does not need to be responsible. Ji Rong is the same. If you think about it carefully, which of the tragic colors in the story has no adult shadow?
