Liu Yaren won the Best Actor award at the 15th Asian Film Awards for his film "Silent", and he won the Green Dragon Film Award for Best Actor for the second time for this film. And before that, he already had a lot of popular works. Today, I recommend two of his works "Si Mourning" and "Old Hand".
In "Si Mourning", Liu Yaren plays Li Yu, the son of Si Mo during the Yingzu period of Joseon, and as his only son, Yingzu has high hopes for Li Yu. But Li Huan has not been interested in reading since he was a child, which makes Yingzu even more harsh on him.
Li Huan can be said to have grown up under the blows of his father, and the relationship between father and son has also become intermittent day by day, and eventually turned against each other. Li Huan was reduced to a commoner and was eventually starved to death by his father about being in a rice cabinet.
Ancient politics aside, this is a case of educational failure. The father's relentless repressive education has caused the son to have mental illness. But the father did not realize it, and eventually led to tragedy.
Liu Yaren's performance is immersive, his emotional appeal is very strong, and it touches the hearts of the audience at all times. Moreover, when he was filming the clip of prostrating his head in the film, he was unconscious of the bleeding on his forehead, and it was not too much to call it a "drama idiot".
In "Old Hand", Liu Yaren plays a violent and perverted chaebol three generations of Zhao Taihui, who beats people and takes drugs.
However, unfortunately, he met the policeman Xu Daozhe, who knew a driver friend who happened to be a worker under Zhao Taihui's company. This worker did not receive wages to find Zhao Taihui, and as a result, the three generations of this chaebol not only did not give the worker a corresponding salary, but used the money to humiliate him. The worker went through all kinds of hardships and got the money but chose to jump off the building. Xu Daozhe felt that things were not as simple as they seemed, so he and the chaebol III began a battle of wits and courage.
Even if I don't watch Liu Yaren's various evil deeds in the film, his expression and eyes can make me think that he is the son of The Fool Himself. His fight scene with Huang Zhengmin on the street shows his violent and brutal character even more vividly.
In addition to the works, I would like to talk to you about Liu Yaren's professional attitude. According to common sense, at a young age and with such achievements, he definitely deserves everyone's praise.
But Liu Yaren did not take these honors and praises for granted, on the contrary, every time he won an award, he would reflect, maybe this award is not because of his own strength, it may be other factors, because of his own experimental spirit or box office reasons.
Even though he has received the highest honor in his professional field, he still feels that he has not done enough and hopes for further breakthroughs. Few people are so sober, especially after gaining fame and fortune, most people will be carried away by fame and fortune and think that they are invincible.
Liu Yaren is a rare good actor, his works are worth watching, and his professional attitude is worth exploring and learning.
