When you laugh, the world laughs with you; when you cry, you cry alone.

Although the ending can be seen after knowing that it is the male protagonist and sister who died, it is for everyone to see after all, and it is understandable to average the cognitive level. The design of the plot expresses the story vividly. The parts of eating octopus and extracting teeth have brought people's emotions to a certain extreme. In the end, when the male 1 wanted to kill the male 2, a satirical recording was released, and the male 1 sought hypnosis. The metaphor of the teacher burying his own memory in the snow, the language of the shots is just right, the colors and tones are liked, everything is serving the plot, and the photography art is not overwhelming. great!

Oldboy quotes

  • Dae-su Oh: [Dae Su is on his knees. Begging] Please. Don't tell Mido. What has she done wrong? You know it was all my fault... I have committed an unforgivable sin, against your sister. And I also... Did you wrong. Please leave Mido alone... If by any chance Mido finds out the truth, you son of a bitch, I'll tear you limb from limb. And your remains will never be found. Why? Because I'm going to swallow every last bit.

    [Crawls over to Woo-Jin and starts to grovel to Woo-Jin]

    Dae-su Oh: Woo-Jin! Please, sir, I made a mistake. Please forget what I said. Sir, Woo-Jin!

    [Raises up on his knees to face Woo-Jin]

    Dae-su Oh: We're Evergreen Oldboys, remember?

    [singing]

    Dae-su Oh: With the energy of a green pine tree/The Great Sangnok High...

    [Grabbing hold of Woo-Jin's leg. Begging, and weeping]

    Dae-su Oh: I'll do whatever you want. I'll do anything, I beg you. Woo-Jin, if you want me to be your dog. I will. From this moment on, I am Woo-Jin's dog. I'm your bitch.

    [Starts barking maniacally like a dog]

    Dae-su Oh: Look, I'm wagging my tail. I'm a dog, I'll guard your house. I'll be your slave...

    [Starts crying frantically, and falls to Woo-Jin's feet. He begins to lick his shoes... Humiliated... defeated...]

  • Woo-jin Lee: And now... now, what joy will I have left to live for?
