repressed humanity

In the post-war era when the U.S. military was stationed, human nature was suppressed, there were no bright colors, and the clothes worn by girls were relatively gray. Confused, helpless, just living by, doing nothing, lack of national self-confidence, people feel that there is not much fun in living, sinking in the darkness and spending the rest of their lives. Living in that era makes you feel unable to resist. The girl was raped by two gangsters in the vegetable greenhouse at night. The boy couldn’t beat them, and the girl couldn’t resist. When punishing bad people, girls are the most vulnerable, they have no ability to protect themselves, they can only exchange their own bodies for what they want.
It feels like it was an absurd era. In that remote little village, all kinds of incredible things happened, which made people jaw-dropping, but you couldn't deny their existence.

    The more you think about it, the more arrogant it becomes. No matter from any angle of characters, race, men and women, sex, language, space, etc., the whole film is full of binary relationships. But not against each other, but mixed with each other. Therefore, this film is also an allegorical film of how to purify relationships = how Koreans gain self-identity. The three central characters finally chose self-destruction in order to achieve the return of identity and self-redemption.

    Much like Imamura's "Pigs and Warships", where Japan is compared to pigs, and here Korea is compared to dogs. Derived from history, the film is thus the presentation of the legacy. Injuries and bullying keep happening, and hope and prospects are dimmed. Many scars bear the imprint of the United States, and after healing, they have to face the result of re-injury. If you can't get revenge, you hurt yourself. Swap the struggle and death of a group of people for a gap in a vicious circle.
