On a business trip during the May 1st National Day holiday, I came to Ji'an City, Jilin Province, which is known as the "Little Jiangnan in Northeast China". This small town is not big, but its location is special. As you can see, the southeast side faces North Korea across the Yalu River. The mountains and grasses you see, including the small islands in the river, are all North Korean territory.
When you are standing on the side of the river, you can clearly see that there are North Koreans on the opposite side. It is said that there are some people who are bathing on the shore when the weather is warmer. What an amazing country. If you say hello to them, you may also be greeted by a response. In this way, the people of the two neighboring countries seem to get along fairly well, but in fact, there is always a bottom line that cannot be overstepped. If you don't believe me, see-
On the Ji'an side of our country, tourism projects have been developed using the precious resources of the Yalu River, which are the yachts you see. There are also larger boats that can carry more tourists. But whether it is a boat or a yacht, all of them drive along the Yalu River. You can shorten the distance by half the width of the Yalu River to take a closer look at North Korea. The nearest place is only about five meters away from North Korea.
This movie is about a North Korean fisherman who drifted to the border of South Korea because of a fishing boat failure, and was arrested by South Korean customs suspected of being a spy. Kim Ki-duk's films have always had few lines, and compared to his previous works, "The Net" will never make you feel sleepy and boring. What remains unchanged is Kim Ki-deok's desire symbol. Yes, even if it is a work with such a theme, it is also the beginning of a sex scene :) (I will say at the end? North Korea in the movie seems to be a huge Mobiu Sihuan, North Koreans have lived from generation to generation in an endless cycle of eternal confinement.
Recently, I saw this passage on Weibo and I deeply agreed: There are many things, if you try your best, you can only choose two out of three at most. A beautiful and precious lover. I love leisurely high-paying jobs.
Convenient and quiet low-rent accommodation. Delicious and affordable food. ——Looking around, there are ternary paradoxes everywhere in the vast sea of people, and the whole life is a large-scale impossible trinity. (From Weibo ID: Taozhi)
In the movie, Koreans living in capitalist countries will not live a fairy life. The self-sufficient North Koreans seem to be happier, but they are also confined to the big network of the state. For the fishermen themselves, they are catching fish in the net. For the country, the fishermen are in the net. And you cannot escape, and there is nowhere to escape.
