This 영 화 is something that more so then ever needs to and is relevant to the social climate.
The 영 화 portrays a man's life shuffled through its natural order but generally portrays him as a pathetic loser either way until its 3rd act where he changes into something else thats much nicer to others around him but the film lays the qeustion: does he deserve empathy after all that?
And the film asks you, is change worth the empathy of others when that change originates from something much darker? My answer would be yes under the right context and ideals.
Its a 영 화 that clicks depending on the person watching and their believes.(Watch my films

At this crucial moment, memories of seven crucial episodes from Yeong-ho's past flood his mind.

How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A devastating reversal through time that traces how a man's idealism and humanity were systematically eroded by Korea's violent political upheavals and personal betrayals. Watching it feels like witnessing the slow accumulation of wounds that can't be healed.
