Kingdom: Ashin of the North
Watching this film, I really feel that the years are ruthless. One day Jun Ji Hyun will become someone you don't know! (Those who have a tacit understanding should think of "Thunderstorm")
This movie is a side story of the Korean TV series "Kingdom". I probably know what "Kingdom" is about, but I haven't watched an episode. Therefore, it is guessed that this is the first part of the TV series "Kingdom", because Yaxin, the protagonist played by Jun Zhixian, told the imperial doctor the method of "resurrection flower" and "rebirth". And it is clear that the imperial physician will use it on the king. And why is this, because Yasin is going to kill all the North Koreans!
The Koreans made a film, the theme is to destroy the North Koreans (note that the North Korea in the film is the historical North Korea, the ancestor of the current South Korea and North Korea). This kind of empathy is truly unparalleled.
Why does Yaxin do this? Because her clan is a branch of the Jurchen clan who had surrendered to North Korea in the past, because she was grateful for the kindness of North Korea (in fact, the so-called kindness is to give a piece of land, and then exploit and despise them), so she has been acting as a North Korean spy to spy on the Jurchen A powerful family of pigs and guards. This tribe, sturdy and ambitious, is the heart disease of North Korea.
Because it has to face the invasion of Japanese pirates (Japan) and suffer from enemies on both sides, North Korea must not only pay attention to Zhu Powei, but also deal with the Japanese pirates. To be honest, it is also difficult.
And the royal family who was relegated to the local area, in order to monopolize wild ginseng, even unscrupulously killed a group of pigwomen who came to pick them. This will naturally lead to a war between Jurchen Pig Powei and Korea! In order to avoid war, the military commander stationed at the border first blamed the tiger, but the result was found out (because the tiger died for a long time, its stomach was empty, it was a zombie tiger); so in order to save the country from war, to avoid the enemy from both sides at the same time, He also blamed Yaxin's clan. So Yaxin's clan was annihilated. And Yaxin listened to his father's teaching wholeheartedly, and wanted to be loyal. He has been bearing the burden of humiliation and continued to take over as a spy, monitoring Zhu Powei, hoping that one day, the North Korean army can help her get revenge.
Unexpectedly, she discovered the truth. So she used the "resurrection flower" she prepared to save her mother when she was a child. It turned out that there was a local record before that the deer ate the resurrection flower, and the tiger ate the deer, so it became an immortal tiger. And whoever bites will become a zombie. She turned all North Korean troops into zombies and then burned them to death.
The cause and effect of hatred has been made clear, and the history of the zombie kingdom has also been made clear. But isn't this kind of story boring?
Actually not!
A long time ago, I read a book called "An Empire". It said that if an ant loses its queen and becomes a single ant, its life is aimless. What about people? As for the garrison commander, he must be loyal to the entire dynasty. He is a very staunch patriot. He even directly "rebuked and intimidated" the royal family who were mercenary and disregarded the safety of the people. For the sake of the country, he sacrificed a small foreign race, which is nothing. But what about Yaxin? Her "country" is not North Korea, her country is so small that it is her own clan. And when the clan is destroyed, then the value of their existence is revenge. That is to kill both Koreans and Jurchens! This is her kingdom! She is equally loyal to her kingdom! 7/23/2021
