Who are you ? 'Helpless'

The movie I'm going to introduce this time is a movie about the life of the world's most miserable woman, and it's "The Helpless" which is full of affection as it's a movie I've seen five times so far. In particular, I wonder what it would be like to focus on her acting in the movie, which is the peak of actor Kim Min-hee's acting life. 

1. A plot line 

On my way to see my parents before marriage, it was only an empty seat, not Sun-young, waiting for Moon-ho, who had gone to buy coffee. Her phone was turned off and she disappeared without a trace. Moon-ho asks her cousin, who is a former detective, to find her, and her mystery begins to unravel one by one, so who is she?

2. Cast and director

Lee Sun-kyun played the role of Moon Ho, Kim Min-hee played the role of Sun Young, and Cho Sung-ha played the role of Moon Ho's cousin. The director was directed by Byun Young-joo, who is famous for among female directors. Another famous movie by Byun Young-joo is Flying Boys. 

3. What to watch for

Since the story itself is exciting, I think you can feel that you watched the movie well just by immersing the story line of the movie as it is. In particular, the production of parts where Sunyoung's existence was known one by one was very good. And I think her performance in the scene where Sunyoung committed the first crime in the play was very great. I think it would be good to ask yourself if you could understand her unfortunate life as a woman after the movie is over. And it would be interesting to pay attention to the supporting roles of actors Park Hae-joon and Lee Hee-joon, who are not at the time of the movie's release but are now very famous. 

4. personal  review

After watching the movie, I felt so sorry for the fake Sun-young's life. And I deeply sympathized with why she had to choose such a life. At first, in the scene where Sun-young disappeared, I thought, "Is it a simple thriller movie?" but I think I was even more surprised while holding my breath and watching each scene that followed her footsteps. And if I were her, if I were in that situation, would I be able to live in the world proudly? Or would I make the same choice as Sun-young? I think I thought about it for a long time even after the movie was over.  I heard that there are many fraudulent marriages in the world, and I thought, "We should learn about each other's identity and get married before marriage." And I thought that Sun-young must have felt real love for a while from Moon-ho, who let go of her hand even after knowing everything. I think it might be a very tragic conclusion, but I was more worried about how Moon-ho would be able to live in the world after the movie. One of our favorite movies, 'The Helpful.' It's a little old, but I recommend you to watch it because it has a theme worth taking your time to think about.
