Disaster movies are always popular

I remember the first disaster movie I watched was "Tornado". It was frightening and blood boiling, and I couldn't help speeding up on the way home, as if a tornado might come at any time. Disaster movies one after another, when I thought I was tired of aesthetics and stopped paying attention, the Koreans attracted my attention. First, "Monster of the Han River", let me see the special way Koreans deal with disasters - ridicule. Because of the disaster, the jokes have all turned into black humor. This special style makes the Korean disaster films have a different charm from the American disaster films. Although I know that many people in China dislike Korean things, I personally still feel that Korean films are improving, and the progress has made us ashamed.
This "Haeundae" was watched with a colleague who was three and a half years younger than me. I originally planned to watch "Ha 6", but I only had VIP tickets left, so I didn't buy it. I watched this instead and used another one. The mobile exchange coupon provided by my colleague was unexpectedly worth it. The little girl burst into tears, and I couldn't help shedding a few tears. After watching so many disaster movies, why can't you resist? I think, as long as disaster films are close to life and show humanity, they will never be out of date and will always have the power to shock people. Because no matter when, everyone has feelings that they usually ignore but actually cherish. Everyone has only one life, but just keeping his own life does not mean that he can live, because people need more than this life to live. That's it. No one is born a hero, the only hero in this movie is lifeguard Jeong-sik, the rest are just saving their own relatives, or people who can be saved by their hands. Is there a hero like Zheng Zhi who can cut his own safety rope in exchange for the life of a stranger or even a rival in love? This is a question my colleague asked me after reading it. I don't know, but I know there are parents everywhere who leave their hope of life to their children and face their own death, and there are people everywhere who can stretch out their bloody arms to watch their neighbors get washed away by the flood, like Like the little girl in "The Monster of the Han River" who desperately protects the younger children, these are not the actions of heroes, these are the actions of mortals, which is why they are more touching.
If a tsunami comes, if it is still useful to run away, if my companion falls while fleeing, if a stranger falls in front of me, if there is only one chance of life and we have two, what will I do? If the people around you are killed by the disaster, are there any unresolved misunderstandings, unexpressed feelings, unfulfilled promises? In the face of life and death decisions, how pure are those pledges? Every time you watch a disaster movie, this is a question that every audience must think about. So disaster movies will always be a hit.
