Although the concept of "nation" was only invented in modern times, it seems to have taken over all the methodologies for judging history overnight and became the only criterion. Even if there is a big difference between "nation" and "nationalism" in the eyes of rational tyrants, and they strongly criticize "nationalism", in fact their historical methodology cannot escape the shadow of the concept of "nation" And shackles, it is pure fifty steps to laugh a hundred steps.
"Nationalism" is a street rat, and "nation" is political correctness. This logic has its own problems. Jiang Digui's "Flag of the Taiji Flag" uses the background of ethnic contradictions to interpret brotherhood, which is undoubtedly "politically correct". In "MY WAY", the friendship between Japan and South Korea under the background of ethnic contradictions is "cheap boiled water, Empty and symbolic"? Intra-ethnic conflicts are always reconcilable, and inter-ethnic conflicts are always irreconcilable? What kind of crazy logic is this?
I think the success of "MY WAY" is that director Kang Di-kyu got rid of the moral kidnapping brought by the concept of "nation" and raised his perspective to "God mode". The contradictions and conflicts between the Japanese and the Koreans, the Koreans and the Koreans, or the Japanese and the Japanese can not be eliminated, but they are also reconcilable. In this movie with the theme of "going home", the Koreans have the right to go home, the Japanese also have the right to go home, the Koreans can also protect the Japanese, and the Japanese can also run on the track instead of the Koreans.
The paleness and powerlessness of people in the context of the big era cannot be the reason for "the grass swaying in the wind". Similarly, the positive energy conveyed by the film should not be captured by political correctness, but should exist in awe of the leap between life and death!
