No matter how hard a rock is, it is dead, and no matter how fragile an egg is, it is alive. The rock will eventually shatter into fine sand, and the egg will eventually hatch over the rock.

At home in the morning, I watched the movie alone. It's been on the list for a long time, and I finally got it out today. The face of Uncle Song Kanghao's cake is actually very familiar, but the performance in the defender is still amazing.
Just like the melting pot and I are not the gods of medicine, the defender also touched me enough.
In 1978, Song Woo-seok (Song Kang-ho), who only had a high school education, finally passed the judicial examination after years of hard work, and soon after becoming a judge, he changed his career to become a lawyer. He keenly smelled business opportunities from the latest policies, and started his real estate agency business. Although he was ridiculed by his peers as a nightclub boy who distributes business cards anytime and anywhere, Youshuo didn't take it seriously and moved toward his goal step by step. He relied on the money he earned to enable his wife and children to live a prosperous life, and also repaid the debt of conscience he owed to the lady in the hotel seven years ago. In the 1980s, the struggle for South Korea's democratization intensified. Youshuo doesn't care about things outside the window at all, and keeps making money behind closed doors. However, the great changes in the society have not allowed him to stay out of it. The son of the hotel aunt, Park Jinyu, was arrested because his affiliated Busan Reading Association was accused of being a left-wing association, and he was even more brutally abused and unfairly accused. Woo-seok, who loves money but is more emotional, embarks on the road of defending democracy...
It was said in "The Crucible" that we fought all the way, not to change the world, but to prevent the world from changing us.
The lawyer played by Song Kangho chose to challenge the world, and he wanted to change the world. In feelings, but also out of a lawyer's beliefs. Yes, when a country's laws are trampled on, shouldn't it be lawyers who should resist first? So, he kicked over his stable life and career, got up and went retrograde in this world.
I was thinking, how about you? Do you still have the courage to change the world? Or, do you still have the courage not to be changed by this world? Or, are you still the same person you used to be?
Probably, the answer is no.
It is also possible that indifference and indifference are our habits. However, when things happen to us, we have enough courage and reasons to stand up, to protect the people we want to protect, to stick to the beliefs we have always believed in, and to choose to go against the world.
"I want my kids not to live in an age where the brakes are on for something like this ridiculous."
"Because the people are not rich, they cannot be protected by the law and cannot enjoy democracy. This statement is unacceptable to me."
"The country, what exactly is the country the witness said? Article 1, Paragraph 2 of the Constitution of the Republic of Korea states that the sovereignty of the Republic of Korea belongs to the state, and all powers are generated by the citizens. Trample state repression underfoot, witnesses say the state is only a small part of the forced acquisition of power. Isn't it? You are a maggot making a good and innocent state sick, and a dirty helper of the military regime."
"When this kind of citizens cannot exercise their legal rights, as a legal officer, I should be at the forefront. This is the real legal officer's duty."
Perhaps, growth is a process of constant compromise. Compromise with yourself, compromise with the world, and accept all imperfections.
But the world is what we make of it. Are you willing, through your own efforts, to make the world a little bit different? We are contemporary college students, we are the future.
