"Iron Rain" is a film adapted from director Yang Yushuo's own comics. It fictionalizes the stories of the North Korean coup, the assassination of the head of state, the declaration of war on the peninsula, and the nuclear explosion crisis. It shows the contradictions between the two countries and the core pursuit of unification, and The attitudes and methods of the three countries surrounding the United States, Japan and China. First of all, I have to sigh at the boldness and open-mindedness of Koreans, daring to challenge such a dangerous subject, and compared with the "Interview" of the vulgar Americans, the filming is serious and serious. It is not so much a drama as it is a prophecy, a wish. The story was introduced by Yan Tieyou, a former North Korean agent. From the assassination, the story gave a suspenseful and tense beginning. Then, starting from the assassination of the head of state in the Kaesong Industrial Zone explosion, Yan Tieyou and two North Korean girls fled to South Korea with the unconscious head of state in a truck full of panda dolls, and met another main character—— Guo Zheyu, the security secretary of the Blue House. With North Korea's declaration of war, the stage was fully rolled out, and figures from various countries began to compete. North Korea is divided into the main battle coup party investigation chief Lee Tae-han and Park Kwang-dong, who is loyal to the No. 1 figure. On the other hand, South Korea has split into two factions - the main war faction represented by the current president who wants to make historical achievements before he leaves office, and the main war faction represented by the successor president Gu Nian of the same root of Korea and South Korea. The United States, Japan, China, and the surrounding areas represent various temptations, while Yan Tieyou and Guo Zheyu are desperately running around to resolve conflicts. In a series of twists and turns, the two gradually build up trust and friendship. The missile battle was both tense and burning, and finally the crisis was quelled when Yan Tieyou sacrificed his life to go deep into the North Korean rebel stronghold to provide coordinates to the South Korean bombing rebels. The most popular head of state has a successful operation, and the new president of South Korea has succeeded to promote dialogue between the two Koreas. The story unfolds step by step. At the beginning, North Korea was tense and South Korea was relaxed. After the opening pattern was broken, suspense began to appear: Who was the one who assassinated the No. 1 character? Who is behind the North Korean coup? Will South Korea finally let go of hatred or embrace reunification? What is the abacus in the US and Japan? Suppose we all know that nuclear war will never break out, but how will it end? It tells the twists and turns, multi-line processing, and the plot is very catchy. There is a marked line in the play: In a divided country, The people suffer so much, not because of the division itself, but because those who use division as a political tool suffer more. This sentence is the core of the whole film. Separation is always painful for North and South Korea. As Guo Zheyu said when he started giving lectures at the university, South Korea and North Korea were divided, not Japan as the provoking country of the war. For Japan, we adopt economic catch-up suppression. And what about North Korea? How should we treat it? In the film, the advocates of the two countries repeatedly emphasize that the two countries have the same root, and fighting with each other is only to make the relatives bitter and the enemy happy. Some countries use division and hatred to balance the situation, while others use division and hatred to stabilize their political status, and it is always the people who suffer. In recent years, many South Korean film and television works have been promoting the unified thesis: if you cooperate, you will live and you will die. You give me your nuclear force, and I give you my economic status. This is the long-term plan and the common survival and development of the two countries. foundation. There is no sensationalism in the movie, but the friendship between Yan Tieyou and Guo Zheyu is still moving. The two people, one north and one south, who were disturbed by this bureau, stripped off their military or government identities, were just a husband and a father. In the film's consistently tense rhythm, the only lighthearted moments are two people eating noodles and listening to Quan Zhilong in the car. The corners of Yan Tieyou's serious expression matched with Guo Zheyu's silly cold joke. In the end, Guo Zheyu went to visit Yan Tieyou's wife and daughter, and as a "father's friend" gave the "father's gift" to his daughter. This part is a sad killer. No matter what details or plots are crap in this film, in the end, I still have to admire the freedom of Korean art and media. North Korea, South Korea, the United States, Japan and China have all been hacked, and there are also guts!
