This is kinda awesome. Although the tone of most Korean movies is a little weak. I admit, the young father who broke his hand in exchange for the bond was a little moved.
It stands to reason that Korean movies and drama series rarely put the painting brush on this social level. It's not that the film of Saints is all negative, but I think what the director wants to tear apart is human nature. Ultimately, a twisted life leads to a twisted result, which leads to an even more twisted life.
Whenever I read this, the posthumous Supreme Treasure always pops up and murmurs why the hatred is so great, and understands why Tang Sanzang has to travel thousands of miles to learn from scriptures to resolve this kind of grievance. This. . . . It's a bit unserious, but like the ending of Journey to the West, the meager desolation and the fierce sadness of Kim Ki-duk are completely different.
So again, the so-called tragedy is to tear the beautiful things apart for you to see. Whether it's the appearance that doesn't care about anything but the goal, or the incest drama that wants to go back, or the mother who pretends everything and wants revenge, all of these are too sad and too real.
It's too late, and it's only one step away from the classic, which is a pity.
