I have to say that "Walking with God" is not simply a box office myth, and looking at the overall situation is of vital significance for the upgrading of the entire Korean film market.

can already smell the ambition of Korean films to upgrade, the small and blackened signature movies have reached a bottleneck, and the saturated Korean film market urgently needs to create a new pattern.

The blockbuster era had to come.

The series is undoubtedly the treasure of Hollywood, the box office dominance of the global film industry, and it also represents the most advanced film technology.

Ghosts and gods are undoubtedly the hottest theme in recent years and at the moment, and "Ghosts", which developed a popular idol drama series last year, is now based on popular online comics and upgraded it to a special effects blockbuster.

Special effects are undoubtedly the most intuitive and important symbol of blockbusters, and the two films are in the form of set shots, spending a total of 40 billion won, which is a rare large-scale investment in South Korea.

The most obvious is the shaping of the big scene, the film establishes a huge worldview of the underworld: there is a law in the underworld, and all the dead must go through seven trials within 49 days after death: murder prison, lazy prison, deception prison, injustice prison, betrayal prison, violent prison, and family prison, and only the innocent dead can be reborn.

The model is inspired by a set of 10 pictures of the Ten Kings depicting the underworld from the Joseon Dynasty.

The fact that DEXTER Studios, a special effects company founded by director Kim Yong-hwa, was able to do it independently without U.S. assistance is a testament to the rapid growth of Korean film technology.

Even commented that this is the Korean version of "The Lord of the Rings", and it will be the Marvel Universe of South Korea?

Ding Cheng scoffed, not all blockbusters can be called The Lord of the Rings, and not all series can be called Marvel!

Hollywood blockbusters and a complete industrial system are not built overnight. Stories are just as important, and Hollywood stories are simple, but they transcend borders.

It doesn't matter how well a movie plays elsewhere, as long as there are a few sparkles that make people amazing and applauded, it can make a deep impression.

The long and heavy ambush laid by the plot in the first two-thirds is vividly played in the second half of the film, and the moment when the cruel truth is revealed is like a slap in the face and a stick, as if at that moment he is the messenger himself.

The unbearable memory itself is so painful that people don't want to know, and every minute and every second wants to erase the memory and forget the original self. At the end, the film clarifies the cause and effect, which is the title of the second part: cause and fate.

In general, from the point of view of the theme, this is a high-quality, high-quality, and on-topic film, let's not envy the fact that many explicit satirical words in it can directly become movie lines, and the theme part of the film is already remarkable.

Although it is called walking with God, it is actually discussing human nature and man itself through God. Since its birth, human beings have been kind and selfish, contradictory and simple creatures.

Most people do not have absolute good and evil, and are constrained by desires and desires throughout their lives, and are bound to moral do's and don'ts. We keep making mistakes and then we keep atoning for our sins, and so on and so forth.

Therefore, he is neither great nor heinous, he cannot become a god or a Buddha, nor can he fall into a demon, and in the end he is a person who can achieve nothing, a slimy person who cannot do anything to the extreme, and who cannot do anything well.

It's really helpless to be born, it seems that the world is always difficult to achieve both, and we are always forced to choose, and then regret, pain, and atonement.

No matter what kind of identity and status we have in reality, what kind of life we are experiencing, in the face of the established destiny, in the face of the world, we are too humble, small and powerless, bearing external changes, bearing internal impacts, guilt, happiness, justice, pain, etc., whether you want to or not, you have to accept them one by one, people seem to be born with a helpless, uncontrollable tragedy.

Man lives in search of the truth, and dies because of the truth itself. What is life for, and what is death for, life itself is too cruel.

But at the moment when the advent messenger confessed to tears about thousands of years of atonement and remorse, at the moment when Li Dechun tacitly smiled and relieved, and at the moment when the identity of King Yama's father was revealed, people suddenly understood the meaning of these causes.

There is a cause to have a fate, because of the entanglement of the cause and fate is difficult to separate, we are bitter and happy because of the seven emotions and six desires, tired for the ups and downs of emotions, seven emotions and six desires are too difficult to break, but the memories that arise with these emotions and desires are the meaning of human existence.

In Ding Cheng's view, needless to say, the key is that the other two messengers played by Zhu Zhixun and Jin Xiangqi, the two actors, are much richer in the second part than the previous one.

Zhu Zhixun's grievance resolution pulse is very complete just because of the character arc in this life, from cynicism and hanging children to being responsible and taking care of the overall situation, even if it is not combined with the previous one, it will not affect the integrity of the character image.

Li Dechun, played by Jin Xiangqi, who was born as a child star, is not simple this time, if you only watch the last one, the audience may think that she is here to sell cuteness, but in this one, through the combination of her suffering experience in her previous life and her kind character in this life, at least this role no longer seems so papery.

Perhaps the effect of the previous adaptation of the manga is very different from the humorous style of the original book, and this one also presents the true colors of the original book through the performances of Ma Dong-seok and Kim Dong-wook.

The shortcomings of the family god played by Ma Dongxi are not only not able to see righteousness and courage, but also ignorance of the social economy in the world.

The unjustly killed ghost brother played by Kim Dong-wook may have read too many books, saw so many slots in the underworld, turned on the chatter mode all the way, and was reluctant to cooperate with Jiang Lin's defense in order not to complete the reincarnation, but what he never forgot was the two comrades-in-arms he cared about in the military camp.

A character like this that is flawed, laughable, but not lacking in human brilliance, the more it resonates with the audience.
