Movie "Kim Ji-young born in 1982"
01
The Korean movie "Kim Ji-young, born in 1982", has caused a lot of controversy in South Korea, and this film depicting the difficulties of married and childbearing women has been boycotted by some male audiences, which is really ironic.
In the film, Jin Zhiying, in her thirties, is happily married, her husband is considerate, and her children are lovely; but she still suffers from serious mental illness, depression and sadness, unable to control negative thoughts, and talks nonsense when she is sick, as if she has become someone else.
Some people say that the reason for Jin Zhiying's depression is because of marriage and children, marriage has given her great pressure, as a full-time mother, she not only has to take care of housework, but also carefully take care of the children, and even have time to drink a cup of coffee steadily, Jin Zhiying is physically and mentally exhausted in marriage, so she is sick.
What can crush Jin Zhiying, is it really marriage?

Jin Zhiying's husband Zheng Daxian is handsome and handsome, steady and down-to-earth, stable in work, does not care about bad habits, will care about his wife's emotions, urge her to see a psychologist; learning that Jin Zhiying wants to return to the workplace, he began to ask about men's "parental leave" in the unit, and supported his wife's choice.
It can be said that as a husband, Zheng Daxian is qualified or even excellent, he is trying his best to meet his wife's material and spiritual needs, not harsh on his wife, not to mention not to be a hand-throwing treasurer, he and Jin Zhiying face the problems of life together, hoping to live a better life together.
Some people also say that Jin Zhiying is a pretentious person, obviously living such a happy life, and he is not satisfied. These people will not understand that Jin Zhiying's mental illness was not formed overnight, and what really destroyed her was not marriage.

Born into a traditional patriarchal family, Kim and her sister were very unpopular at home, while her younger brother not only enjoyed good material conditions, but also had a parental preference.
The father went on a business trip and specially bought his son a valuable pen as a gift, and only a notebook for his two daughters, for which Jin Zhiying has always been grumpy; until she got married and had children, she still remembered the pen.
But what she really cares about is not the pen itself, but the missing love.
Born as a woman, Jin Zhiying was discriminated against from childhood; harassed by male classmates, but still blamed by his father for not dressing properly; after work, because of women's fertility problems, he could not get the opportunity to be promoted; he went out with his children and was ridiculed by strangers as "mother worms"; the women's bathroom was installed with voyeuristic cameras, and a group of men took pleasure in it, scaring Jin Zhiying from going to the toilet outside.
Behind Jin Zhiying's seemingly stable life is a patchwork of her countless poignant experiences, and the unfair treatment she receives is only because of gender.

Jin Zhiying has gone to college, and Kochi women still face so many troubles, the lives of ordinary women can be imagined.
Jin Zhiying's girlfriends, many of whom had to become housewives, once dreamed farther and farther away, circling around their husbands and children every day, and gradually they forgot their own hearts and lost themselves.
Jin Zhiying is a well-behaved daughter, a sensible daughter-in-law, a virtuous wife, and a gentle mother, but in addition to these identities, what she needs most is to be herself.
What really makes Jin Zhiying despair is that her appeal will always be ignored. When she was a child, she was ignored by her father, when she grew up, she was ignored by her leaders, and when she married, she was ignored by her mother-in-law, and even strangers had to humiliate her with words.
Obviously, she is very good, a high-achieving student graduated from a prestigious university, talented, willing to work hard; but even so, she still can't compete with those male colleagues with mediocre qualifications; in the eyes of her mother-in-law, she only deserves to take children at home.

Jin Zhiying is sick, and the reason for the illness is not her husband's inaction or the unsatisfactory marriage; but the prejudice and snubbing she has suffered for a long time, and she needs to identify and exist.
The daughter is sick, the father can't remember what she likes to eat, and the bread she bought is what the son likes to eat; but it is gratifying that the whole family is slowly changing and warming Kim Ji-young in a clumsy way.
Her mother often came to take care of her, her brother gave her an "exclusive" pen, and Kim Ji-young also actively cooperated with the treatment.
At the end of the film, Jin Zhiying regained her profession and became a writer, she finally found the direction of life again, and her illness was cured.
The moment she became herself, she healed, it was as simple as that.
