This is a movie that made Japanese and Korean audiences feel ashamed. This is the first time I saw Huangmin (traitor) as the protagonist. Perhaps the Korean director wanted to make friendly exchanges between Japan and South Korea, completely ignoring the hatred between the two ethnic groups. After all, both countries are relatively pro-American. But the fact is that South Korea is also very hostile to Japan now, not to mention North Korea. At the time of the release, Moon Jae-in was not in power. Later, he came to power and asked Japan to apologize and indemnify the comfort women and laborers of North Korea during World War II. For this reason, the two countries also fought a trade war. Japan imposed sanctions on South Korea and restricted the export of semiconductor materials to South Korea. .
I don't know why Fan Ye wanted to fly Soviet planes for North Korea or even Japan, maybe they were lustful. At that time, the Soviet Union and my country were in the same camp, and they were both in the red camp, except for the Kuomintang led by Chiang Kai-shek, who were in the same camp as the old and the United States. The male protagonist Jun Shik grew up with the grandson of a Japanese general. One belonged to the imperial people, so it was almost impossible to change the Japanese surname (for example, in Taiwan, which was also colonized by Japan at that time, many imperial people who also fought for Japan changed their surnames, such as Lee Teng-hui, the leader of Taiwan independence, changed to Yan Zheng Li Nan), and the other Is the grandson. Although North Korea was still colonized by Japan at that time, and the North Koreans could only be third-class citizens or laborers and slaves, they still had national integrity and killed his grandfather Tanigawa. Although the film shows Junshi Tanigawa's abuse in every possible way, and even almost killed him, their common encounter shows Junshi's kindness and the ruthlessness among compatriots. It can be seen that the male protagonist has a strong sense of identity with his Japanese imperial identity. After all, there is no country, and he was brought up by Japanese colonization. The Soviet Union is the enemy to them.
In World War II, Japan was the strongest in Asia, and Germany was in Europe. At that time, the two countries were the most ambitious imperialist countries and the two countries that caused the greatest casualties in human history. Germany slaughtered Jews, Japan slaughtered Chinese. In the film, the two male protagonists move from the Japanese imperialist countries in Asia to the German imperialist countries in Europe in order to survive. Japan Tanigawa, who advocates the spirit of Bushido, let his subordinates have an anatomy, but he didn't have any seeds. In the end, he survived on the field and used his identity as a Korean. I'm afraid only ghosts know if he deliberately used his identity.
During World War II, there was no such country as South Korea, so the positioning of South Korean directors was not very clear. After all, some people in South Korea now hate North Korea. Therefore, the male protagonist will not give any national integrity or national righteousness. He is just a Korean, a nobody, a person who can be ignored in World War II. If it is an adaptation of real events, in Chinese words, it is just a traitor's survival. It's just a road, it doesn't have any positive meaning. For the war themes of World War I and World War II, and the war between China, South Korea and the Soviet Union, even if it looks neutral like this, he does not dare to shoot. Only dare to shoot the war with the United States.
The storyline is too ridiculous, and there are bugs, isn't it deaf? Later, there was no barrier to communication. The time span of three or four years, the hairstyles of the two male protagonists have not changed. Whether it is a prisoner or a war criminal, it is not bad not to shave your hair. Maybe they are for a good face, in order to echo the audience's aesthetics, I Looking at the previous comments, some people posted pictures. If it is a real photo, the prototype is really ugly, but some people in the comments say that the two male protagonists are handsome, and they also say that they are gay, which is really disgusting. It can be seen that even if the real events are adapted and changed too much, there is too much water, and it is difficult to be faithful to the facts. Like I said at the beginning, the Korean director just changed the film to promote the friendly relationship between Japan and South Korea.
The two stars are just ok for the scenes, and the cruelty and big scenes of World War II are reflected.
