The film is adapted from the experience of Roh Moo-hyun, the 16th President of South Korea in the 1980s. Although it is not stated clearly, the director and screenwriter are still trying to make the audience think of this president. Roh Moo-hyun was born in 1946 in a poor peasant family in Jinyong-eup, Gimhae City, Gyeongsangnam-do, South Korea. At that time, South Korea was still under the rule of the US Military and Government Office. It is the same clan as the Gwangju Noh, that is, the Dongyang Noh clan in Zhejiang Province, where heirs are still thriving in China today. (Interestingly, Chun Doo-hwan’s follower and successor, Noh Tae-woo, belongs to the same clan as Roh Moo-hyun. After Roh Moo-hyun's death, Dongyang Roh’s clan is a clan Also sent a collective message of condolences). Roh Moo-hyun in his youth lived a hard life like in a movie. In 1963, he was admitted to the Busan Commercial High School as a scholarship student. He went to school during the day and worked in a company at night. He ate instant noodles every day. In 1966, Roh Moo-hyun graduated from Busan Commercial High School. This level is roughly equivalent to our technical secondary school. Since then, he has not gone to school. He is the one with the lowest high school education of all previous Korean presidents. After graduating from "technical secondary school", he was engaged in work that had nothing to do with his profession, like most secondary school students, weaving fishing nets and building houses. He enlisted in the military from 1968 to 1971. Roh Moo-hyun was in the frontline of the Korean Army stationed in Tungangwon Province. The 12th Infantry Division served as the rifleman. While in the army, he has been studying law by himself, and after being discharged from the army, he applied for the judicial examination. In South Korea, the difficulty of the judicial examination is roughly the same as that of China, but social attention has surpassed that of my celestial dynasty. In many Korean movies, there are some bridges in which a pheasant has passed the judicial examination and turned into a phoenix. On March 27, 1975, after taking the exam for the seventh time in a row, Roh Moo-hyun's name appeared on the 60 qualified list. The words "Never Give Up" in the film made me cry. Since 1977, Roh Moo-hyun has served as the Magistrate of the Daejeon District Court. He resigned 8 months later and opened his own law firm in Busan. The cases he has handled are mostly tax litigation cases, and most of the cases are very high. The winning rate has made some fame in Busan. At this stage, in 1980, the famous "Gwangju Incident" occurred in South Korea. In a nutshell, it was a street movement spontaneously demanded by citizens (please make up for it by yourself). Quan Douhuan, who just came to power through a military coup, suppressed this movement by force, causing a large number of civilians and students to be killed and injured. According to official reports, the Gwangju incident caused 207 deaths, 122 serious injuries, and 730 minor injuries (haha). After the Gwangju incident subsided, the Quan Doo-hwan government suppressed the mz movement nationwide, and white terror was enveloped. Thousands of citizens who participated in the movement were arrested on May 28, and Kim Dae-jung was sentenced to death for "manipulator behind the Gwangju incident." From 1980 to 1983, there were more than 700 journalists He was ordered to retire by the government for demanding freedom of the press. From 1980 to 1986, a considerable number of college students were expelled due to political demands each year. ——This is the background of the story of this film. Tax lawyer Roh Moo-hyun became involved in politics and eventually became the president of South Korea, beginning with the "Bulim Incident", which is the story in "The Defender". The term "Bulim" is derived from various events named after "Lin", such as the so-called "Martial Arts Incident" in December 1980, the so-called "Martial Arts Incident" and the "Study Lin Incident" in May 1981. Coming. The so-called "Bulim Incident" is also the "Lin" incident in the Busan area. The word "Lin" in the so-called "Wulin" and "Xuelin" incidents that occurred before actually came from the "East Berlin" incident in 1960. The "Bulim Incident" is the largest "Rong Gong" fabricated incident in the history of Busan. At that time, the government detained 22 young people in the Busan area on suspicion of violating the National Security Law, the Anti-Communist Law, and the Assembly and Demonstration Law for circulating dangerous books and holding illegal gatherings under martial law. . According to media review, Roh Moo-hyun "wrongly joined the defense lawyers as a substitute for others", but this made him his first "defense against current affairs." However, unlike the description in the movie, even before the incident, Roh Moo-hyun was not a phoenix man who only wanted to make money. As early as February 1960, in order to commemorate the birthday of the dictator Rhee Seung-man, the school asked the students to "Our President Rhee Chengwan" is the subject of writing. Lu Moo-hyun, a first-year junior student, stepped up and asked everyone to "do not write anything" and organized a "white paper alliance." For this reason, he was punished by the school and suspended for a week. Back in 1981, when visiting arrested students as a defense lawyer, Roh Moo-hyun received an unspeakable psychological shock. In his later book, Roh Moo-hyun wrote: "The students were so scarred that they couldn't even believe me as a lawyer. They looked at me silently with fearful eyes...how could there be such a thing in the world...because of anger My mind is in chaos, and my blood is boiling.” That night, Roh Moo-hyun said to his wife Quan Yangsuk: “It’s terrible, terrible! Our son will also enter university. This kind of society should never exist.” After that, from 1982. The “Bumei Arson Incident”, the Busan Democratic Citizens’ Association Movement in 1985, and the “February Seventh Memorial Service” in 1987, Lawyer Lu became an active human rights lawyer and had a profound relationship with many students who are committed to national progress. "Combat Friendship". (Is it very similar to Ah Bian?) It is worth mentioning that in a series of human rights struggles, South Korean Christian forces played The YMCA, the Central Church, the Southern Church, and the Catholic Priests for the Realization of Justice are among them. In 1988, Roh Moo-hyun was elected as a member of the National Assembly and participated in the hearing of the illegal incident of the Chun Doo-hwan government. The hearing was broadcast live on TV and the ratings exceeded 50%. Roh Moo-hyun gave full play to his lawyer's expertise, and reprimanded the former Security Planning Department Jang Sedong, Hyundai Group Chairman Zheng Zhouyong and others. His generous speeches also touched thousands of audiences, making him a "hearing star" that swept the country from a rookie in politics. In the 2002 presidential election, Roh Moo-hyun was 48. With 9% of the votes, he was elected the 16th President of South Korea. However, he emphasized morality and distanced himself from large financial groups, and his ruling road was not smooth. When he left office in early 2008, the Koreans almost sent Roh Moo-hyun away with drums and gongs. Following that, Lee Myung-bak negated all Roh Moo-hyun's domestic and foreign policies almost without any suspense. But at this time, integrity is still the unquestionable label on Roh Moo-hyun. Until 2008, "Taekwang Industrial" President Park Yuanci was investigated by South Korean prosecutors for tax evasion and bribery. The South Korean Attorney's Office found that Park Yuanci had remitted 5 million U.S. dollars to Roh Moo-hyun's niece. Soon, Jeong Sang-moon, the former secretary-general of the Blue House,-Roh Moo-hyun's "General Manager" and childhood playmate, were summoned in connection with the case. "Park Yuanci Gate" was quickly upgraded to "Roh Moo-hyun Gate". On April 9, 2008, Park Yuanci confessed that at the request of Roh Moo-hyun, he put 1 million US dollars in cash into the bag and handed it to the Blue House through Jung Sang-moon. Later, Roh Moo-hyun and Yang-sook admitted that he had received 1 million U.S. dollars to repay debts. Roh Moo-hyun is deep in the bribery door. "Who would it be?" At 6:45 a.m. on May 23, 2009, this was the last word left by former South Korean President Roh Moo-hyun. Following his words, the personal guard turned around to check and prepared to stop a climber from approaching, but unexpectedly, when he turned his head again, he only saw Roh Moo-hyun falling from the back of Owl Rock. Roh Moo-hyun jumped down from a 45-meter-high cliff. No one can know what kind of state of mind he is in the void with the sound of the wind in his ears. After stepping down as president last year, Roh Moo-hyun returned to Bongha Village, Gimhae City, Gyeongsangnam-do, where he was born and grew up. Fengxia Village witnessed his poor childhood, physical growth, sweet love, and the judicial examination review that changed his lifelong destiny, and then he became a judge, lawyer, human rights activist, parliamentarian, minister, and president. The skull broke, and the spine and ribs were broken. At 9:30, Pusan ​​National University Hospital announced that Roh Moo-hyun was dead. His departure was intense and calm. ——Southern Weekend’s film was released in South Korea in December 2013. On February 13, 2014, the Busan District Court issued a second-instance verdict on the "Bulin Incident" and sentenced 5 defendants innocent, which is 33 years after the first-instance verdict. year. The court held that although the defendants confessed to the facts charged by the prosecutors, they later discovered that they had been detained by the police for a long time during the investigation. Therefore, they were probably under pressure to confess their guilt.
