Plain and quiet, is the lack of respect for women, Reivew on Love and Honor

The film grasps the details very well. For example, after Xin Zhicheng was seriously ill, the hair on the top grew long. After Kadai left, the house and yard looked messy. Kimura and Tan Li performed very well. In a hierarchical oriental society like Japan, women are in a secondary position in the family, and the samurai's revenge stems from the desecration of their own dignity, not from love for Kayo. The worst part is the ending, when Kayo came back on his own, which is an insult to women.
Xu Jiaying's "Riding a White Horse" tells the story of Xue Pinggui, who became famous in 18 years and returned to Hanyao to find his wife Wang Baochuan. Traditional dramas end with a big reunion, but when we look back at the script now, we will find how much Xue Pinggui is. Asshole. First, he married Princess Xiliang while he was married, and second, when he returned to Hanyao, he used a false identity to test Wang Baochuan, which was really ulterior motive. Similar to the behavior of the samurai in the film, the wife does not exist as a peer, but as a subordinate/servant. In today's fast-developing society, this idea of hierarchy/subordination should no longer be promoted, but the idea of fundamental equality between men and women.
