Time similarities and differences

Every time I watch Kim Ki-duk's films, I am convinced by his excellent imagination. The incredible plot is beyond what ordinary people like me can comprehend. But blame blame, his works are not "ugly" to see, the difficulty here is difficult rather than the anti-meaning of "beautiful". Like "Bow" and "Drifting Room" are indeed too depressing and "good-looking" to be hooked. But in general, compared to Fellini, Godard, Bergman, etc., Kim Ki-de's works are really clear, bright and cheerful.
I can't say that I know more about the director's intentions, but the theme of the film itself is not difficult to understand. We may know the deep meaning behind it, but at least I don't get tired of watching it, and I can stick to it overnight. This is a very realistic pursuit.
"Time" is Kim Ki-deok's thirteenth work. Before its release, because he was dissatisfied with the Korean cinema and critics for not supporting his film, he once declared that "his work is rubbish" and planned to bid farewell to the film industry. He also said that the new film was not in Korean cinemas. release, and so on. Later, I publicly apologized for these remarks, because these remarks offended the popular film "Monster" and its fans and inevitably caused the anger of the Korean film industry.
Previously, the domestic media had always called this "Time" an erotic film, which surprised me, because in my impression, Kim Ji-deok's films always focus on "abnormal love", but there are really very few explicit pictures, even if For example, the early "Young Prostitute" is no exception, and the later "Bad Boy" is already the largest, and it is only a pediatric level. Another reason is that actor Cheng Xian'e can't just rely on being sexy.
After watching the movie the night before yesterday, it turned out that the sex scene was very gentle, there was no "excessive" footage, and the overall feeling was very harmonious. The story is very simple: a woman suspected that her man was tired of her body and appearance, so she mysteriously disappeared and ran for cosmetic surgery ; Half a year later, she returned to the man as another woman; when the man found out the truth, he felt unacceptable or endurable, and ran to have plastic surgery; half a year later, the man did not appear directly.... It is also considered to have an insight into the plastic surgery style in South Korea, which is scary but the effect is obvious. There are a lot of lines in the film, and many of them are a bit different from his works, hehe.
Time has changed the face, and the face is trying to find the time again. The former can either go with the flow or use surgery overnight, while the latter will be futile without thinking. Have people changed? It hasn't changed, at least the feel can still be discerned. Have feelings changed? Nothing has changed, the hero and heroine love the beautiful love in their hearts. So what has changed? People have also changed, not only their faces, but also their emotions. The strong and crazy love exceeds the bottom line of what they can bear in their hearts. How can they not make people shrink back.
What about time? As the tide ebbs and flows, the water level of the sculpture fluctuates with emotion, familiar and unfamiliar, but always unpredictable.
Can you tell the difference between tomorrow and today? This question is as difficult to answer as the relationship between the hero and heroine.

    Finally, there are more lines, but this is actually just a "plastic surgery" that Jin Ji De did for himself. It seems that Jin Ji De is also facing his confusion about "time" behind the high productivity.

    Time can change everything. I like the name Time because it better reflects the original intention of the director to make this film. What we see and feel is different. Many people can't understand Shixi's idea. I seem to understand and accept it a little. Time is really scary, she just wants to fight time in her own way. She loves him too much, she is too passive in the relationship between the sexes, and the madness of passive domination seems to have made her taste the sweetness of the initiative, but in fact she has stepped into the abyss of doom. After watching it, I was very depressed. I was depressed for a long time before I burst into tears. I was afraid of Director Jin's film because the ending made me shudder...
