Pain, but please believe in love.

The feeling this movie brings to me is pain. Everyone has unavoidable pain. Changwu's mixed-race identity, the eternal American dream in her mother's heart, and the girl's eyes, that young man is restrained, meticulous and gentle. However, he was born in such a pig and dog-like society, and in the end, he couldn't protect his lover and watched his friends go crazy. The pain of that American soldier may just be the director's wishful thinking.
There are many political metaphors in the film, and Korea's history is relatively broken.

Cruelty in movies.
1 Killing a dog: Whether it is a rope hanging to death or a pistol jumping, it is all covered in blood. Killing the most intimate animals (or minions) in such a direct and violent way is unbearable for movie watchers, especially those who love pets. Regardless of whether it's a metaphor in the movie or not.

2 Rape:
The incident where the girl and the boy were in the color booth, two animals gang-raped her, what is even more hateful and heart-wrenching is that the boy who was at the scene was unable to protect him, even after the incident, his mother tried to make peace with the situation. Pulling her daughter to have an abortion, the scene of going to the hospital, the strong arms of the girl's mother, is a complete compromise and cold blood. Compared to this, for the pension that has been stopped, I cry to death, wishing that the old man in the family would die again.
American soldier and teenage girl. When the girl's brother was eavesdropping at the door, the moaning from the room did not seem as pure as the cry in the A-movie. It was obvious that the American soldier was raping the beautiful woman in disguise. Go to bed because of the eye treatment. The cruel reality, in the face of cruel things, the matter of going to bed is no longer important. After a long period of love, the girl's love for the soldier comes from the heart. This must be said to be a mockery.
Between the dog killer and Changwu's mother, this paragraph cannot be included. But it is difficult to distinguish the relationship between the dog killer and Changwu's mother with the body and the emotion, or even the same, the body is love, and love is the body. The director didn't want to obscure the matter, he just respected the facts too much.

3 Fist and foot violence
The boy was robbed of money and beaten.
The dog killer beat Changwu.
Changwu fights a few thugs.
Whenever things go against each other, violence is the only way.
There are too many cruel narratives in the movie, which makes the people watching the movie suffer.

Please believe in love.
The love between the two has never changed. The meeting in the prison at the end of the movie is the most gratifying and warm scene while making people sad.
