"The Defender" is set against the background of South Korea's democratic movement in the 1980s. The Busan Book Club case involved seems to be a sub-case of Kim Dae-jung and Kim Young-sam's cases. From certain aspects, it shows South Korea's transition from dictatorship to democratic system. difficult journey in. This defender is really amazing. He is smart, very sensitive to opportunities, good at seizing opportunities and diligent in working hard. In the era of great development, it is very important to find opportunities and take the lead. Doing real estate registration and training sailboats to compete in the Olympics is something that happened around their generation, and only he pioneered it.
More important is his justice and courage. If he doesn't come forward as a defender later, then no matter how rich he is, he is just a dazed rich lawyer, a small person, and the realm of life is like this. It can be seen that the Koreans at that time still had a certain ability to distinguish. Even the police officer who presided over the extortion of confessions knew that the son of the proprietress of the broth shop could not be a red person. He also quoted his father who was a police officer. If the country is too busy Hunt down the criminals and the country will perish. But his conscience was all swallowed up by vested interests, and through this case he was mired deeper and deeper in the dictatorship. This character is definitely very representative. Under the authoritarian system, some professions can really make good people turn bad, and they are devoted to defending the dictatorship. The boss of the construction company also represents the ideology of some people. They believe that the current dictatorship needs to be overthrown by the democratic movement. The main force to launch the democratic movement is the middle class. dictatorship and darkness, by further developing the economy to achieve democracy. It belongs to the idea of progressive democracy, and there is a certain truth, but the hero refutes this view and believes that the backward people also have the right to be protected by law. It can be seen from the movie that warriors who need to raise their arms, otherwise the dictatorship of the military government will not withdraw from the stage of history on its own. And it is the ignorant and terrorist rule of the military government that has caused public resentment and become an irresistible historical torrent. So this film is a good thing, it reflects the social situation in the process of democratization in South Korea at that time, as well as the attitudes and attitudes of all walks of life, and discusses some of the problems encountered.
The saying of hitting a stone with an egg is reversed in this Korean movie. With this spirit of hitting a stone with an egg, the male protagonist makes money and is proud of himself. I admire his courage very much, regardless of the fact that the achievements of his struggle for these years may be lost, and even his family may be in danger. This movie shows that today's South Korea is law-abiding and fair. A country's transition from dictatorship to democracy and the legal system is as important or even more important than economic development. Otherwise, the power of the general public will not be guaranteed, and economic development will go astray. The film gives one a sense of justice, a desire for progress.
