One fairytale human comedy 'The perfect way to steal a dog'


What does it mean to know someone?
It means knowing the truth of him and deepening his mind. When we have such understanding, we can become a true friend of him.

The movie 'The Perfect Way to Steal a Dog' is a ten-year-old girl struggle. The reality that the young girl Ji-so has faced yet... Her father left his family, and Ji-so's family had to wander streets. Her mom 'Jung-hyun' leaves his little brother every day to Ji-so and goes to work. Meanwhile, Ji-so's birthday is coming. Ji-so wants to have a birthday party with her friends at home like everyone else on birthday. But her family have no home. It is a house if a small van that is full of junk is a house now.

Ji-so' tells her teacher that she will have a birthday party at home because of pride. She boldly decides to buy a house. Now she has to make money for the house. She worries about how to raise a large sum of money with her friend. Then she come to decide to steal the dog 'Willie'. Willie is owned by an old woman who is wealthy. She is the owner of the restaurant where Ji-so's mother works.


However, there is another person who is looking for Willie, he was her elderly nephew 'Su-young'. He finds out that her estate is inherited to Willie by looking at the will of his old lady. He wants to kidnap Willie and take it away, but at this point, Ji-so takes over Willie quickly. From this time, Ji-so and Su-young compete for Willie.

In this process, Ji-soo learns that Willie is not a simple pet dog for the old lady. She finds out the wounds and pain of the old lady and realizes her mistakes at this time.


This film is a typical human comedy that starts with a comedy but ends with an impression, but it can be regarded as a fairy tale. There are a lot of signs that they tried to make the feeling of fairy tales alive. The story of a 10-year-old girl, Ji-so, does not squeal. The director seems to have understood the nature of this story. He follows the way she see and felt. When Ji-so and the old lady understand each other, they will leave a deep impression in your hearts. I recommend you to see this movie with your children.

The story of geniuses challenging prejudice 'Hidden Figures'

People become stupid enough to be unimaginable if they become prejudiced. There is no way to save those who are in the frame of false perception. Until they realize themselves, they have another form of barbarism. They discriminate against unfair reasons, violate human rights, and do not respect others. It would be fine if the atmosphere of society does not support such barbarism, but what if there were a large number of people with such prejudices? The film 'Hidden Figures' is based on the American society of the times when there were many racial prejudices. So there are various barbaric social images. There are restrooms for colored and even coffee pots are divided between white and black. Even if they do the same, black people do not get the treatment of a white man, and promotion can not dream. This discrimination continues on buses, on the streets, and in public institutions. In this age, the three main characters, Katherine Johnson, D...

Confront unjust dictatorship power 'The Attorney'

This film is part of the history of Korean democracy. As it is well known, Former President Roh Moo-hyun is the person who became the motif of this film's main character, Song Woo-suk. When this film was released, the president of Korea was Park Geun-hye, daughter of the dictator. She disliked this film and was known to have made a disadvantage to the company that invested in this film. However, many people missed the dead Roh Moo-hyun and this movie succeeded in box office. It was no coincidence that people showed explosive reactions to this film. After his death, the daughter of dictator became president and democracy in Korea declined. As people watched this movie, they reminisced about Roh Moo-hyun and realized what they had lost. I think that the driving force of the candlelight revolution that shook Korea last winter came from here. The energy of the candlelight revolution was already growing in people's minds. Now I introduce this movie i...

Meaning of meeting and communication 'Arrival'

Is meeting a blessing? Is it a curse? It can be seen at the end of the relationship that is made up of meetings. There is no guarantee that meeting will be a blessing. Meeting can be both tragedy and happy ending. This is not the domain of human. What we can do is constantly trying to make the relationship happy while communicating and communicating. If we do not do this, we will have nothing to blame for being irresponsible for meeting. Above all, to ourselves... This will drive us into a pit of endless self-condemnation. Lewis Banks is a linguist. She had a beloved daughter. She loved her daughter so much, but her daughter was hard to accept her divorce. Why her father had to leave? She wanted to know it, but Lewis could not explain it to her daughter. Suddenly, one day her daughter is dead. This incident is a deep scar on her. Even though she is a linguist, her self-condemnation that her daughter has not convince...
