What I saw when archaeological Zhang Junhuan was confused. The author is like "Save the Earth! "I'm a big fan of the film, trying my best to find clues about the previous work in the director's other works. More impressive than the film itself is Director Zhang's stubbornness, always doing some thankless things, saving the earth from a fiasco at the box office, and wanting to win more audiences' love but filming Hua Yi, which teenagers can't watch, and even Hua Yi. It is 1⃣️9⃣️8⃣️7⃣️ that touches the red line of zz later. In the past 17 years, only three feature films have been released. The director has encountered many difficulties and aborted many projects, but Director Zhang still maintains his original intention as a creator, which is admirable. When will the new film be made, Director Zhang...
The following is the original text:
"Huayi" is "Save the Earth!" "Director Jang Jun-hwan's first feature film in 10 years. In the past 10 years, the Korean film industry has put "Save the Earth!" " as a truly "extraordinary" film. A wonderful combination of sci-fi and reality, showing a free-spirited tacit understanding between thriller and romance, "Save the Earth!" ” vividly portrays the name Jang Joon-hwan as the so-called “problem director” in the Korean film industry. During this period, he again produced the short film "Hair" (2004) with Shin Ha-kyun, participated in the anthology love film "Camellia" (2010), and was preparing for the sequel "Old Thousand Avengers" (2006) ”, the project fell through. So ten years passed, during which he married actor Moon So-ri in 2006 and became a father. Although there are countless factors that affect the director's worldview and works, I am afraid this is the most important thing that has happened to him in 10 years. On the other hand, I want to summarize Jang Joon Hwan's 10 years like this. Assuming "The Avengers of the Thousands" is made as originally planned, "Save the Earth!" "Binggu", "Old Thousand Avengers" Goni, and "Hua Yi" Hua Yi will make up Jang Jun Hwan's "Boy Trilogy". "Huayi" and "Save the Earth!" ” is all about boys suffering growing up over the question of who I am, and that sense of distance comes together to form the theme of a coming-of-age movie. "Huayi" is somewhat like "Save the Earth!" "The prequel is a trace of Byung-gu's teenage years being erased.
In fact, Hua Yi is a child who does not exist in the world. Huayi Huayi grew up unconsciously learning his father's criminal skills. "Huayi" begins with a child who doesn't know his own past and begins to establish a relationship with the world and explore his true identity. Wearing a school uniform that symbolizes "belonging" but doesn't belong anywhere else is a strange paradox, and "Huayi" comes a little closer to twisted truth in all kinds of adversity. When confronted with a crime for the first time, Hua Yi fearfully said "I saw a monster". Seok-tae pressed children who didn't want to be involved in the crime and said, "We all do it, why can't you do it!" Like Bing-gu, who lives in the basement in "Save the Earth," Hua-yi is also isolated. The core emotion of both films is the isolated child. "Huayi" is a film related to "Save the Earth!" ” is a film that doesn’t have much in common in terms of story development and character composition, but on the other hand, it digs deeper into the unique themes of “growing up movies.”
Traces of Korean Tough Guy Movies Over Ten Years However, the unique situation of Huayi, who calls 5 criminals his father, makes the many characters in the film and the events around them inseparable, leading the audience with a tense centripetal force. At its core is a new "father-son" relationship that transcends the themes of a coming-of-age movie, which is more old-fashioned than fresh. So,
"Huayi" is a well-planned film that appears to be a collage of impressive scenes from a decade of Korean movies that director Jang Jun-hwan didn't make. However, there is also a side that feels that collage is a bit too much. Compared to the five fathers, the larger organization behind it is not clear. The detective character, played by Kim Young-min, was supposed to be the "Hand of God" to lead the story, just like Lee Joo-Hyun in "Save the Earth!" > as a detective, but the role is unremarkable. Huayi, however, subtly integrates everything into the thick-line duel composition of the bizarre relationship between father and son. Like "Save the Earth!" Like the aliens in ", it is meaningless to analyze whether Shuotai is a MacGuffin. Even if he encounters some difficulties on the road of director, he will go forward bravely, which makes people feel the innocence and stubbornness of director Jang Jun-hwan. Because everyone who read the script commented "No matter how you rewrite it, it will never appear in front of a young audience." Always naively said "Anyway, the second movie wants to meet a larger audience" The director is absurdly obsessed with stories that teens are forbidden to watch. So, when the production of the film was announced, some people said, "Sure enough, it's Jang Joon-hwan!"', and others discouraged it. In other words, "Huayi" is "Save the Earth!" " and the artist's will to dig deeper into his own unique subject, it seems impossible. Although a bit noisy, what I want to say is that Huayi, which is both familiar and fresh, unified and separated from the genre, is a charming result, transcending the lineage of old things on narrow boundaries.
