This is a film about the depressed life of women after marriage. On the surface, Kim Ji-young is a housewife living in happiness, with a well-paid and gentle and considerate husband, Jeong Daehyun, and a very lovely daughter, enjoying the calmness and stability of every day in the calm days.

In fact, Jin Zhiying's heart had already been shaken like an earthquake, carrying an incomparably heavy shackle on her body. In front of her mother-in-law, she wants to play a good daughter-in-law who is obedient. In front of her husband, she is also a virtuous wife who supports him unconditionally. In the face of her daughter, Jin Zhiying must hide her vulnerability and be her indestructible mother. So, where is the real Kim Ji-young?

During the long period of repression and struggle, Jin Zhiying suffered from mental illness, and she would switch to her mother and grandmother from time to time. Zheng Daxian decided to receive psychological counseling with his wife.

(Zhiying became the identity of the mother - the mother-in-law: mother-in-law, you are happy to see your daughter during the festival, I also want to see my daughter, take care of the aunt's family and then go, I should also think about how sad my family Zhiying should be)

(Zhiying became a grandmother and apologized to her mother: her mother Meishu was also a victim of son preference, she wanted to become a teacher, but she could only drop out of school early to work for her brothers to go to school; after marriage, she became a housewife and gave birth to three children; served the family's food and clothing, was harassed by her mother-in-law, and tried her best to protect her daughter.) Grandma said to her mother, "Mei Shu, don't do that." I think that you were in your youth, but in order to take care of your brothers, you stepped on the sewing machine in the Qingxi River. The face becomes emaciated. Whenever you come back on time with your salary, your mother is like a knife. The child is too well-behaved. Your hand was brought back like that by the sewing machine, mom don't mention how much heartache it is. At that time, I couldn't hug you well, and I couldn't say thank you, Mei Shu. I am sorry. Zhiying, even if she works hard, she will watch and do it herself. You've made her strong, right. ”)

Jin Zhiying, born in 1982, has a considerate husband and the love of relatives, but she is still very depressed, because she faces a society where men are inferior to women, trivial but justified daily injuries. The film uses a light prose style to tell the suffering of being born as a woman, and the empathy it inspires is beyond gender, which makes me can't help but think differently: If I were a mother, I knew that my daughter would breathe the same pain as me in the future, would I still let her come to this world?

(Zhiying took her daughter to the supermarket, and her daughter cried and was laughed at by others)

When the film was released, the women sitting around the room were sobbing because they were all witnesses of the peak of the era of male superiority and inferiority.

Born as a human being, empathetic thinking and making the heart more difficult than the heart?

It is difficult to say that after the release of the movie, the majority of South Korean men still carry out endless insults on the Internet, and the inferior root of Korean men deep into the bone marrow is revealed; it is easy to say that it is easy, even if the gender stands on the opposite side of the woman, you can feel the pain of every minute of the movie, and the human empathy that has nothing to do with gender is also realized. It is true that film is a mirror that can reflect the backwardness of the times, the injustice of society and the scars of women.

When the film was released, Korean men resisted it beyond imagination.

The people were willing to prevent it from being set up.

In fact, this problem is not only happening in South Korea. In China, many families also have the problem of son preference. There are also many women whose married lives are also depressed. There is also the prejudice that it is the wife who should give up her job for the sake of the family, and it is the wife who should do housework at home with the children.

But thankfully, China does not have the social climate of discriminating against married women as south Korea. Although it is true that many Chinese men also have machismo, thinking that they go out to earn money, but their wives are just at home, how tired they can be. Thus a sense of superiority in status arises. Unable to understand the difficulties of the wife, it is the duty of women to do housework for the family and take care of the elderly and children.

But no one's efforts should be taken for granted. Before marrying, before they met their husbands, the couple were nothing more than strangers to each other. Out of love, willing to pay, should get the other party's heartache and care; because of the marriage relationship, for the family and children, even if reluctant to do the payment, is even more remarkable.

Gender is not a reason for injustice, everyone should live happily.

(Episode: Every time South Korean women's rights demand more equal rights, many men have collectively petitioned in the hope of carrying out a policy of forcibly requiring women to enlist in the military, which is said to have been written 18 times.) )
