Fate breeds

One of the films I watched recently, I always have to mention, Kim Ki-duk's "Unknown Recipient". What I feel about this movie is that it is very informative. I don't know much about the ethnic grievances between South Korea, North Korea and the United States, but even a historical idiot like me can feel the love-hate entanglement that cannot be separated from the fate of the characters in the film.

It turned out that what Shang Wu cut off was the mark left by this black name on him and his mother's tragic life. No wonder he wanted to cut and say, "Mom, I originally wanted to live happily with you". But I feel a little relieved.

The difference between her and the woman is that she did not wait for the charity, but she personally destroyed the charity given to her by others. When I saw her reverse the sharp knife and insert it into her right eye, destroying the eyeball that was donated to her by others, I breathed a sigh of relief;
