At first glance, this movie is a pure costume action movie! There is no grand pattern, no cruel and bloody large-scale cold weapon war! But if you know the history, you can understand it with a little association. The final weapon is not a superficial expression that the bow is the strongest combat power of the cold weapon! It is the deep identification of ancient Korea for Han culture! The final weapon, you can understand it as the last struggle, the last struggle of the orthodox Han culture against the backward nomadic culture. Because of the Bingzi Rebellion, North Korea had to give up the tribute to the Ming Empire, and instead formed an alliance with the Qing regime to pay tribute! Just like the affectionate cry of the man who was captured and left his hometown in the movie: "Who will celebrate your father's death in the future!"
As a straight Han ethnicity, I felt deep irony and sadness when I saw this sentence!
