1. The sun: The sun is Funan’s source of power, her external driving force for killing, and despair is her driving force for killing. Funan looked directly at the sun for a while and started to kill. At the end of the film, Haewon also looked directly at the sun for a while, and then went to the police station to identify the murderer. When the murderer threatened her, he also took up a pen and rose up to resist, instead of forbearing as before.
2. The combination of two women: This meaning is implied in many places in the film. For example, when Funan came to the small county town on the edge of Seoul by boat, she was wearing Haewon’s white dress; at the moment Funan died, the camera showed the sun again, and the sun shone on Haewon; finally, Haewon The union with no island is one. These can all be regarded as the process of two women finally joining together.
3. Collapse: Funan's collapse began when Haewon refused to tell the truth in front of everyone in order to protect herself. Of course, at this time there was no idea of killing.
4. The ethical relationship between people on the island: It can be seen that the ethical relationship between people on the island is quite messy, and it can even be said to be inhumane. The old man should have had relations with the four old ladies. Funan and Wan Zong, Tie Zong, boatman, and police are all cousins. Xiaoyan’s biological father has no way of knowing (Funan has been ravaged by all men except the old man) . These can be seen from the dialogue. The men on this island only use women as tools for venting their desires and doing hard work. Funan becomes the last straw to overwhelm this "primitive society" full of incest and violence.
5. Prostitute: When Funan asked Haiyuan to be hopeless, a prostitute who seemed immoral to outsiders helped her. This can be regarded as a kind of moral irony.
6. When did Funan become murderous towards Haiyuan: Haiyuan refused to tell the truth in front of everyone, making Funan desperate. When Haiyuan fled with the boatman, Funan felt that she was already in the same camp as the person who hurt her. Funan accidentally found Haewon’s boat and followed the police to the police station. She hoped to kill Haewon so that she could be with Haewon forever.
7. Graves: The film is drawing to a close, and the old man has set up graves for all the dead on this island. Among these tombs, only Xiaoyan's grave has sacrifices. The old man burned a stick of incense for himself before he died. The location of the tomb is worth noting. The damned people died at the place where Funan was being bullied or when they were bullying Funan. The three old ladies were killed while singing (Funan was doing hard work). When the uncle died when he wanted to rape Funan, the "husband" died at the home that beat Funan, and the short-haired old lady died of "hope for a man". "In, the boatman died on the shore where Funan could not escape.
8. Seoul: Seoul is undoubtedly the peach blossom field in Funan's heart. She always let Xiaoyan keep a book depicting Seoul. Funan went to Seoul after the murder, but she arrived in a small county near Seoul and died there. She has never been able to reach Seoul, the peach blossom spring in her heart.
9. The four boys who bullied Funan when they were young: These four boys should be Wan Zong, Tie Zong, boatman and policeman. Funan avenged his childhood revenge.
10. Funan's purpose in coming to Seoul: to kill Haewon. If Funan was to live in her beloved Seoul, her eyes would not be so helpless and hopeless when she went ashore.
10. Imagine another ending: Funan started life in Seoul wearing Haewon’s clothes, but found that she still had to obey the seemingly reasonable rules in order to survive, and even these rules made her suffocated and desperate. She understood that Seoul is actually another islandless island.
