Surrounded by the singing, he left his partner, went to the quiet shore and lay down on the flower bushes alone, looking at the sky, excited and sad because of the wonder of life, and inexplicably weeping. He is less than 20 years old. The time was 1979. This is the ending of the movie.

"What should I do if you leave suddenly. What should I do, life without you." The same song. The girls and boys who sang this song became sloppy middle-aged men and women. He could only sing hoarse by himself and chose to be killed by a train. He is also middle-aged, and his destroyed lives are spread out one by one. Already 1999. This is the beginning of the movie.

That is the life of a man named Kim Yong-ho, and it has nothing to do with our lives. But such a life is like a fish that has been cut open on a chopping board, its eyes fixed on the void, the whole body is still trembling slightly because of the action of nerve endings, and every scale tells the cruelty of slaughter. This kind of life unfolded in front of me in an unavoidable and irrevocable manner on a cold spring night, which terrified me.

The rabbit died and the fox was sad. We are equally terrified of our lives being destroyed by frame-by-frame.

  • Yongho: Do you think life's beautiful?
