It is difficult for you to define what kind of face Liu Yaren has.
Warm and charming, well-behaved and uninhibited, it seems that every word cannot be accurately described.
Compared with many faces that can be remembered deeply after first acquaintance, Liu Yaren is not a movie face in public aesthetics.
In his own words, "I'm the kind of unsure look."
The typical single eyelid has a pair of attractive ears, and his face is expressionless on weekdays, but his whole face will rise again when he smiles.
The sexiest of them should belong to the lip that "can't close". The upper lip will be slightly raised when it is relaxed, which is described by the Korean media as "chicken gizzard lips".
It is this very charming appearance that makes netizens extremely excited, and the secretly surging desire in the corners of the eyes and brows makes it difficult for people to calm down.
Therefore, the comments seen in many social remarks are not "want to marry", but "want to sleep".
Yuppie appearance and consummate acting skills, some netizens asserted that Liu Yaren's future movie career must be unlimited.
This is actually the case, and 2015 deserves to be the year of "Liu Yaren".
The "Veteran" he participated in became the top-grossing movie of 2015. The brutality of the perverted chaebol Zhao Thae-mei played in the film is chilling, making people realize the charm of Liu Yaren for the first time.
In the same year, "Si Mourning" starring him directly sent him to the position of the youngest actor of the Blue Dragon Award in Korean history. After a long period of dormancy, "Burning" directed by Lee Chang-dong won a number of nominations and was directly shortlisted for the Palme d'Or.
Liu Yaren, who has dedicated his superb acting skills in different films, has become a dark horse among young Korean actors.
Korean film critics commented on it as "Liu Yaren is one of the 1% actors who can play both the bottom and the top of society."
"Burning" and "Mourning" I have already said before, in fact, what really made me feel the charm of Liu Yaren is this film - "Veteran"
In "Veteran", he played the chaebol II Zhao Thae-me. After watching the film, he didn't remember any plot, except for Liu Yaren.
The best part of the film is the fight in the office.
The truck driver had no choice but to hold a sign downstairs in the company because he could not get the advance payment due to the employer's breach of contract.
Zhao Taimei, who was informed of the incident, respectfully invited the driver to his office and said solemnly after listening to the other party's demands.
"The economy is very difficult now. I have heard from my father that running a business is not easy since I was a child... But you can see that we are not dead!"
But when I heard the driver said that the arrears was only 4.2 million won, I was very angry. Just because the driver thinks this huge sum of money is enough to make a living, it is really cheap and worthless in Zhao Thame's eyes.
The seemingly easy-going Zhao Taimei got excited and arranged for the driver and the foreman to fight in the office, saying that only the winner would get the money.
The straight driver did not bring the boxing sleeve and was a mad. Zhao Tai's smile looked at the driver being hit, but also let the child witnessed his father's horrible.
After the end of the violence, Zhao Taimei looked regretful, but unfortunately, it was not because the driver was seriously injured, but because the fighting was too unexciting and disappointing.
The violence escalated again, and after satisfying the pleasure, he fakely took out money and handed it to the driver as compensation for the child.
Zhao Taimei always has a sneer on his face, such a contemptuous smile makes people really feel the contempt for human nature and the distortion of his character.
His brutality is far less than this. He will laugh and play with his girlfriend and stuff cream into her face again and again. He will also be so angry at the boxing ring because of the mercy of his sparring partner that he will break it.
He puts himself above life, and enjoys trampling on others as a great pleasure to vent his anger.
The film Liao Liao several strokes depicts that the reason why Zhao Taimei contempt for life is the lack of self-confidence of the concubine. So arrogant that once someone steps on his bottom line, he will be doubled back.
But Liu Yaren asked the director after learning about the setting, "Can't some people be born bad people?"
So he played the bad guy image on the screen to the point where the audience was extremely bored and outrageous.
But Liu Yaren, who was on the set in private, was very taciturn. He didn't like to talk, but he liked to write poems.
Netizens like to call him Artist Liu, because the unrestrained content makes it impossible to guess his true thoughts.
After watching his speech on a certain award-winning stage, this pretentious and contrived image was criticized afterwards, but it was difficult to hide his sharp personality.
As he himself said,
"It's boring to be well-dressed, and I'm not a person who only does things that make people feel comfortable."
"People who like me appreciate me very much, and people who don't like me hate me."
Such a clear cognition further exacerbated his personal charm. Some people can lock your soul at a glance. The ruffian Liu Yaren is well-deserved.
Aside from Yoo Ah-in, I personally don't think the film as a whole is a masterpiece.
There are quite a lot of plots and some superfluous.
For example, the traffic policeman who made a farewell phone call to his family, and the abortion actress who only showed a few faces.
But it's still worth watching, because there is Yoo Ah In after all.
The film's first WeChat account: Shangui (Shangui1969).
