Audiences who love Korean movies will be familiar with the 2000 release of "Common Security District JSA".
The film tells the story of a Korean soldier who develops from a rival garrison to a friend, but has to fight each other. The sincere feelings between people in the film are placed in the context of the north-south relations on the Korean Peninsula, which is applauded by the audience and the industry. After its release, the film won the Korean box office for 9 consecutive weeks, and not only won the award in South Korea, but also won the nomination for the Golden Bear Award at the 51st Berlin International Film Festival.
The lineup of "Common Security Zone JSA" is even stronger. Among the actors, there are Li Ying'ai, Li Bingxian and Song Kanghao, each of whom is an acting school that has won film and television awards. And the combination of "one after two emperors" also presented wonderful acting skills in the film.
For example, "goddess" Li Ying'ai's foreign spirit and heroic posture:
Li Bingxian's tears of powerless despair:
Song Kanghao's depth and complexity:
The film directly contributed to the film life of director Park Chan-wook.
"Common Security District JSA" is Park Chan-wook's third work after his debut, and his first two works have suffered box office failures. Park Chan-wook admitted that if "Common Security Zone JSA" does not sell well, he will basically be "cool" in the fiercely competitive Korean film circle. Fortunately, the third work was a great victory, which led to park Chan-wook's more courageous vietnam war, and the "revenge trilogy" of "I want revenge", "Kind Gold" and "Old Boy" is known internationally.
Nowadays, Hollywood's "big hand" has reached out to this most classic Korean movie in the hearts of many audiences.
In the Hollywood remake, the border between Korea and North Korea in Common Garrison JSA was changed to the border between the United States and Mexico. The new story tells the story of the hague sending lawyers to investigate after a vicious case on the border.
Although the Hollywood remake has not yet come out, a detail spoiler has made the audience cry out that the new version is different from the original and will add a love line.
So, are you bullish on the Hollywood version?
