Another old article is reposted. I can't help it. I've been very busy recently, but I haven't been busy with any results. Originally, I really wanted to write "International Market" again in a very careful and detailed manner, the film translated by Hong Kong as "Half-Century Promise"... But that's probably the only way it can be.
Later, maybe there is a chance later, everything will be fine!

Without Xiang Mo's lifelong adversity to accompany him, it would be impossible to have such a heartwarming question and answer. A person's life is small in the crowd, but those unforgettable loves will be magnificent when the lights are on. The English title of the Korean movie "International Market" is called "Half-Century Promise". Great production, great, but it is impossible to introduce the original film, even if it can be released in our theaters, it will be manipulated or edited...
In the 1950s, Dexiu, who was in the midst of war, fled with his parents with his sister, but they were separated from each other when they got on the ship. The father returned to look for his sister, and before separation, he told Dexiu that, as the eldest son in the family, he should take the responsibility of a man. They agreed to meet up at the "Pollen House" opened by their aunt's house at the International Market (the name of a farmers' market). The international market, the title, and the story of Deok-soo's youthful commitment, began like this.
In order to support his younger brother and sister to go to school, Dexiu and his friend Dajiu went to Germany to work as a coal miner, where he met his wife, Yingzi, who was with him for the rest of his life. They got married after Deok-soo returned to Korea, and Young-ja quit her job as a nurse in Germany to find Deok-soo, who was busy at the pollen house.
Later, not long after the death of their aunt, in order to buy the pollen house from the alcoholic uncle, Deok-soo and Da-gou went to work in war-torn Vietnam. When he returned there, he was lame. Dexiu's hard work has allowed her family to live a good life, and at a relative search conference in Korea, although there is no news of her father, she learned of the whereabouts of her long-lost sister... Dexiu's mother also died, and even Dexiu's mother died. Xiu himself has also become a dying old man, a small grocery store owner who still refuses to sell the Pollen House.
On one side is the happy family reunion, and on the other side is the lonely Dexiu asking his father, "Have I kept my promise?" Although Dexu kept his promise, Dexu felt that he had a hard time because he never really lived for himself. pass.
A beautiful marriage and family, a dream that has never been realized, questioned by couples who have been with each other for a lifetime; almost the entire modern national history of South Korea... In a place where one can make a family's life through hard work and courage A better place for people; in those countries that value individual family affection and treat people as people; in a world where everyone respects each other, good people will be remembered and sincerity can be immortal. Great father, serious and persistent Korean, who created this touching film "International Market".
Magnificent big scenes, delicate and sincere small plots. I wanted to continue to share the subtleties, but I have already spoiled the whole film... This big production has more tears than laughs, watch it a few times, and you won't get bored.
When you have time, find out.
