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...

The black comedy of life 'Memoir of a Murderer'

Have you ever felt like someone playing with you? You have lived so hard that you did not make a big mistake, but you have not felt like you were tangled up and doing something that seemed to interfere with your work. It may be that a spiteful life is playing with you. There is a time when life comes to play a mischievous mischief. It digs your weak link. And, at a really important moment, it strikes a second. You can confront somebody who should never meet in a moment of life. Now that I'm trying to make some money, your legs may break. Sometimes you try to talk to a girl of your ideal type, but there may be an urgent signal in your belly. Is it called force majeure in this case? Things are twisted to twist. Life often shows such a perverted appearance. It is often like a bloody disgusting person who turns somebody into a difficult situation and turns back to an unpleasant laugh. Why is it so? Do not ask why. Because no one knows wh...

Lucky ending, but funny movie 'Wandeuggi'

The movie 'Wandeuggi' is a joy. But it also does not have much in the chest.  It is not so serious despite the fact that it handles social sensitive material called 'multicultural family'. That part is unfortunate. No matter how serious the material is, it was too cool considering the taste of the generation these days, who show resistance when squeezing tears.  It should have left an impression that this kind of casting would ring something in my chest. Even so, the feeling of watching movies is refreshing. Is not this movie's popularity in Korea due to this "freshness"? I personally like this poster. It smells of people. This is also the attraction of this movie.  We can see the people of this era in this movie  'Wandeuggi'.  The images of our neighbors living in a multi-family house are depicted as they are. They are really 'ordinary people'. What would it be for a Filipino to have o...
