"I have always been afraid. When I was a child, I was afraid of losing the food supplied by the state. When I was training, I was afraid that I would not be able to survive and that I would be abandoned by the party. Now, I am afraid that I will change."
This is the inner monologue of the fool Dong-gu (Won Yoo-hwan) in the middle of the movie, when he shook his head and giggled, but his heart was shaking secretly. The sun was very soft that day. The mother-in-law of the convenience store made chicken and invited the whole village to eat it. The children were laughing and the girl who wanted to be a singer was singing. At this moment, everyone is the same, whether it is the poor, the frustrated, or the secretive, the heavy things on their backs are temporarily put down, and the ordinary temperature makes the sharp and cold things dissolve silently.
Whether the three Secretaries wanted to admit it or not, they all changed then. Killing machines that once did not understand hatred and fear were softened unconsciously when they were close to life. They were no longer just the products of Unit 5446, and they were no longer just victims of political struggles. They temporarily became ordinary people. a member.
Liuhuan, Hailang, and Haizhen are three great hiders in the movie. They were trained by cruel machines in their homeland, and they were sent to South Korea to serve as spies to obtain intelligence from the people with the mission of sacrificing their lives for the country. Liuhuan became a fool Dongjiu, Hailang practiced guitar hard to become a rock singer, and Haejin covered her scars with her school uniform. This was originally a task entrusted by the state to hide one's identity, but in the crowd, no one can escape "humanization". Although Yuan Liuhuan kept in mind the mission of the soldiers of the Republic, even if the BP machine had not been activated for two years, he never neglected every mission, but when the girl was drunk and asked him to exchange secrets, when the child asked him for help because he couldn't find his brother, when he saw When the mother-in-law at the convenience store is bullied, he will unconsciously care and worry. From these plots, we can see that human nature is shaken by the ordinary and warm human instinct, but it is only shaken.
What really pushed Liu Huan's heart down was the deception of the state against him. He has been waiting for the task for two years, but what he waited for was the order to "suicide in place"; when he went to war, he entrusted his mother to the country out of unconditional trust, but the country imprisoned and executed his mother; he was willing to take risks for the sake of the motherland To sacrifice, the state treats him as a failed experiment that can be discarded at any time. What he had once regarded as his highest belief collapsed, crushing the last of his spirit and will.
The three secret men are trapped people, with abyss in the front and back, and nowhere is the only ending. The country has abandoned them, and they will never return to their ordinary lives. On the rooftop, Hailang smiled sadly after receiving a text message from the singer's selection and said that although he can't play the guitar very well, he can sing well. The boy who could never be a singer sneered at the general and said, "Life is not like this, have a good time and leave." In the end, he chose to be a hero who saves everyone and perishes with the general. Lang Huan, who was shot, knelt in the rain and flipped through the passbook his mother-in-law gave him before leaving the canteen. He knelt there the whole time, knowing that neither rushing to fight nor standing up and surrendering meant nothing to him. In the end, he protected Hae Jin from the rooftop and fell to the ground together.
Humanity eventually became their weakness, but they were all willing to be defeated by it.
The picture of the three dying in the rain is accompanied by this dialogue: "Team leader, what kind of person do you want to be in your next life?" "I want to be an ordinary person, born in an ordinary family." "Your dream is really amazing. "So, what about you?" "I want to be born in an ordinary family next door to an ordinary leader who was born in an ordinary family." "Hey, you childish bastards. Then I'll be the sexy neighbor of the two of you. , play with you and throw it away."
The most ordinary and the greatest thing that these three secret men ever did was peeling and drying small fish on the roof, stealing one of the 119 dried fish without asking for instructions; it was writing "Mom, pay attention to it" at the back of the photo. Take care of yourself"; is to persuade the confused girl to quit smoking and get dressed for her before leaving.
"No matter who you are or what you have done in the past, the most important thing is the present." Like the uncle who said this, the people in this village did not care about the identities of these three secret men, and regarded them as people who confided their hearts. , as the person who says "hello" every morning, as the person who will be worried about after a long absence. They exist, exist like ordinary people, and human nature does not lie.
The most touching and heartbreaking thing about this film is the hidden and great human nature. In fact, each of us is a secret person, living in the dark with trembling, but inadvertently, the temperature of people will affect you, let you let go, and let you change.
The hidden and great human nature is the most beautiful story.
