Men are also vulnerable, lonely, and helpless, especially at the end of the film, when the protagonist returns home, looking at his baby in the cradle, and then falling into his wife’s arms and crying, is he longing for salvation from his family? understanding. Although his family did not know that he killed someone, even if he killed someone for revenge, his heart was suffering. When you are with the devil, it is not the devil that changes but you. The protagonist realizes this. He doesn't want to be changed by the devil, but he can't stand the murderers who are at large, especially those who have wives and children himself. Therefore, the protagonist hopes to get salvation and forgiveness from his family so that he can return from the devil's changes. That's why when he received a letter from the victim's mother, his tight face showed a relaxed expression. There are not many scenes of his family in the film, and the role seems to be not obvious, but here, in the heart and life of the protagonist, it is very important.
