As night falls, people tear off their ornate coats and delicate masks to unleash the demons in their hearts in this inclusive-cutting darkness. From then on, the demons were released, faith began to shine, and the night was beautiful and terrible.
The three views follow the five senses, just a joke, and when it really happens in real life, it makes people feel fear and sadness. The Korean movie "I Am a Murderer" is such a work that dissects human nature.

The Korean film "I Am a Murderer" is a Korean crime film directed by Jung Byung-gil and starring Jung Jae-young and Park Shi-ho.
The film tells the story of a serial murderer who becomes a best-selling novelist after the expiration of the prosecution period and the various thrilling and suspenseful stories that occur during this period. The film was released in South Korea on November 8, 2012. In 2017, it was remade in Japan, and the title of the film is "Confessions after 22 Years".
Even more frightening is that the work is based on true events. Most people believe that the prototype of the film is the Japanese ogre case, and the male protagonist Lee Doo-seok is based on the Japanese ogre Kazumasa Sagawa, who became a best-selling novelist through his autobiography of killing. Some people also believe that this film is a combination of the "Hwaseong Serial Murder Case" in South Korea and the Japanese Ogre Case.
<h1>A "charming" demon: looks are justice</h1>
If you have a face value that can make people intoxicated, then you can be a demon, and in the space of this face value and justice in the film, no one will blame you.
In the film, 15 years ago, a serial murder case that killed several women occurred, but the prisoner remained at large until the end of the lawsuit, when a victim's family jumped off a building and committed suicide in front of the criminal police in charge of the case.
Two years later, Lee Doo-seok, who identified himself as the serial killer, published his autobiography under the title "I Am a Murderer", which quickly became a bestseller. Li Doushi, who is handsome and well-spoken, has become an idol-level figure and has received great attention from the public.
His autobiography "I Am a Murderer" includes his criminal objects and describes many details of the crime, and this book has won the attention of many people.
Li Doushi's rise to the throne depends not only on his autobiography of killing, but also on his handsome appearance.
He attracted many fans with his appearance, and the next apology and disguise made the fans die. Even when Li Doushi publicly apologized and was scolded by the victim's family, fans vigorously defended it, but instead reprimanded the victim.
At this time, no one cared about the tragic death of the victim, no one paid attention to the case itself, and at most it was a demon with a group of demons roaring wildly.
No one feels that they are wrong, and no one feels that what they are doing is aiding and abetting abuse, and "appearance is the victory of justice" is being ruthlessly flooded.
Li Doushi is at large in the pursuit of thousands of people, pretending to apologize, confusing the public opinion, all turned into a delicate mask, gorgeous coat, this "charming" demon really fascinated the hearts of many people.
<h1>Surprising role reversals</h1>
The film is nearing the end, but it leads to a shocking truth.
Li Doushi's widespread attention also attracted the attention of Cui Xiangjiu, who always believed that this man named Li Doushi only wanted to become famous by pretending to be a murderer. With the further stripping of the cocoon, the case gradually approached the truth.
It turns out that Li Doushi is not a real murderer, he is the family of the victim of the case, and was saved by Cui Xiangjiu when he committed suicide. In order to find out the real culprit, the two decided to cooperate to find the real culprit. After the plastic surgery, Cui Xiangjiu attempted to lure the snake out of the hole as an author. At this point, the prosecution period for the last murder of the criminals has not yet arrived, and if the real murderer appears, they still have the opportunity to bring the criminal to justice.
In the long wait, the real criminal finally could not hold his breath, felt that his "honor" had been stolen by others, and began to take the initiative to enter the public incident, confronting Li Doushi and Cui Xiangjiu, exposing his identity as a murderer.
At the end of the film, the lawsuit at this time has passed the statute of limitations, but Cui Xiangjiu will not hesitate to go to jail to kill the real murderer. A few years later, Cui Xiangjiu was released from prison, and the victim's family took him home, smiling in front of the camera.
Borrowing a sharp perspective, "I Am a Murderer" is a film that gives a riddle and strikes the audience with a shocking and bloody mystery. On the one hand, the "murderer" who has passed the time limit for hunting has re-emerged from the jianghu and the gimmick of transforming himself into a popular public figure has caught our appetite; on the other hand, the past that the police least want to recall is still rolling over, and how he should deal with the enemy who is at large has become the biggest mystery of the film.
This cruel "revenge" has become confusing, and the seemingly clear plot is an undercurrent that constantly overturns your previous viewing cognition, especially until the moment when the truth is revealed in the second half, the audience who has been deceived for more than an hour will completely realize. Perhaps some clever people have guessed the trick set up by this suspenseful case in the viewing room, but in the depths of this work, which has frequent twists and turns in the plot and fully satisfies the ornamentality, there is still a sharp soul hidden.
<h1>After the truth is revealed, it is a satire on who it is</h1>
As the film ends, everything seems to settle, but after the truth surfaces, the irony is particularly strong.
The capital of the circle of money, the fanatical fans and the indifferent passers-by seem to be unable to escape, and the absurd social form composed of them is even more shocking.
It's hard to imagine that a maniac who is considered a perverted murderer will one day become a star sought after by thousands of people. Is It that Li Doushi's means are too clever, or that the public's three views originally look very confused, confused to the extent that they are not indistinguishable and reversing black and white. Or, there are demons in people's hearts.
Of course, Li Doushi's emergence is indispensable to the media. The hype of high-value "murderers" as marketing points has achieved the purpose of attracting people's attention and obtaining benefits. This may really be an era of entertainment to the death, where everything can be entertained.
Indifferent passers-by seem innocent, but their "eating melon" psychology and indifferent attitude have become the antagonists of justice.

The absurd pattern of social forms represented in I Am a Murderer is a key factor that directly leads to the distortion of human nature. The film borrows the perfect appearance of idol actor Park Shihou, creating an elegant and charming "demon", his existence is like a "mirror of the demon", illuminating the cold-blooded, vain, pursuit of external, and even mad side of human nature, the elaboration of inferiority may make many people "shot" in the viewing situation, which is the purpose of revenge to the sick society that the film really wants to achieve.
The heart is not necessarily indispensable to the face value, the common feeling of people with a "eating melon" mentality, but when justice and evil are confronted, what is needed is a sober cognition. Don't let any truth that is late be mixed with the blood of the victims.
