The film begins with a lighthearted, hilarious, top-notch elite spy, Won Yoo-hwan known as Human Weapon, who is sent to South Korea as a spy, hiding in a shantytown-like neighborhood in Seoul, South Korea, to monitor and collect residents. daily life information. In order to disguise his identity, he disguised himself as a fool named Dongjiu, and faithfully executed orders according to the requirements of the infiltration program: falling and rolling from time to time, two clear noses often running into his mouth, and pooping in public. Although he had already prepared in his heart, this embarrassing scene was bumped into by the girl he had been secretly in love with. He was sad to death, but there was nothing he could do.
But every night, he showed his gentle side, because it was the most tender moment of the day, and it was the moment to write letters to his mother, although none of those letters could be sent, as you can see from the picture His letters have been written in a thick layer, neatly pressed under the cushion, that is his love for his mother, and it is these letters written every day that support him to live this kind of split personality. And that's what he wants, his belief is firm.
When I first watched it, I didn't quite understand why such an elite figure like him was not dispatched to do things such as assassination, stealing classified information, or hijacking big shots, but instead he lived in such a shantytown and did something so unethical every day. Little things on the table. Seeing the sudden epiphany at the end, this is the foreshadowing of the film's funny beginning and tragic ending. Living with these ordinary people day and night, Yuan Liuhuan's heart slowly changed. Although he was afraid of this change, he had already changed. This change happened inadvertently. When he was sick, The auntie boss will take care of him, and Alan will talk to him when he is drunk, including the children who often throw small stones at him and ask him for help at the first time when they are in trouble, and the uncle of the barber who also seeks him when he wants to confess. They regarded him as a confidant, which should be something he never thought of before he set off on a spy mission.
It's a dramatic scene, he's been sent to watch over the people there, and they're part of the family. From his self-report at the beginning of the film, it can be seen that Yuan Liuhuan defines himself as a wild dog, a wild dog who has been educated into a monster, but the shantytown residents slowly get along and turn him into a wild dog. a warm person. At the end of the film, he said that if he was still in the village, the people in the village would be unsafe, so even if he wanted to die, he had to die in a place that would not threaten the villagers.
He is destined to be a tragic figure. He has been trained and educated for nine years in North Korea, and his loyalty to the party has long been rooted in his heart. He cannot betray, but during the two years in South Korea, he always lived in In this warm atmosphere based on trust between people, his heart is always full of contradictions. Therefore, he paid for Alan's air ticket to the United States before he finally left, instructed Yu Dan and his brother to take care of each other, and instructed the children to listen to their mother's words in the future. In his own words, he came to spy on the people here, how many people in the family, and what he did, and in the end he became too familiar with them. In his heart, he also regarded this as home, although he did not admit it, he should not dare to admit it. To admit it would blaspheme his previous loyalty to the party. This contradictory inner struggle stayed with him until the end.
He had naively thought that as long as he completed the task properly, the party would take good care of his mother, which was his only spiritual support, but when Professor Xu finally revealed the real image, his support collapsed in an instant. Losing all his motivation, he could not betray the party, and he was even less willing to exchange the blood of his compatriots for his own survival. When he saw the passbook left by the boss and the aunt for him as the young son's marriage fund, he issued a message. He shouted "I want to go back, that's the life I want", but no matter where I go, I can't go back anywhere. As long as I live, I am not a traitor, but surrender. So he can only choose to die. It seems that he has a choice, but he has no choice. From the very beginning of his expedition, his tragic life was doomed.

While they were working, they were chatting and playing happily.
