Another heart-wrenching work, especially for domestic audiences

Why I love watching Korean movies, because of the similarity of culture and tradition; because of the truth, warmth, love and depth; because of the persistence and intentions of Korean filmmakers. It's not about patriotism, it's not about hypocrisy, it's just about depth and art. In the past 40 years, the family and country, three thousand miles of mountains and rivers, the pain of family and country, the pain of separation, has always been regardless of ethnicity, country or region, ancient and modern things are the same. As for the reason why domestic films can't make such a shocking work, the compatriots in Greater China are unaware that it is the limitation of the political status quo, and domestic films cannot touch this sensitive issue. In 2010, Wang Quan'an's "Reunion", the artistic level And the depth of thought is good, and the actors' acting skills can also be brought into play, but only talking about the present, not as good as the past, is short of tension; in a small way, it is a problem of the film industry, not a poor director or bad actors. It is not difficult to make a classic film that expresses the pain of separation. It is a matter of the attitude of the filmmakers. In fact, similar traditional cultures and similar realities can always make us find resonance in this kind of film, and think of the similarities of our own nation. It's hard to find that resonance. The feelings of this family on both sides of the Taiwan Strait can only be found in Korean movies.
