At first glance, I was expecting a different outcome in regards to how the movie managed to be so direct with the message of outoritarisim when dictatorship becomes the rule of the land once things come crumbling down. In this case, in a literal sense. The movie explored the obvious tropes that has been truth even in our life time when outority wants to keep ruling as a facade of progress, while, little by little reveals it's true colors of power and control mascarade as your neighbor.

The many direct social issue queues are very present in this movie and in our face with a tremendous role from one of the characters who the represents this dilemma our word face even today and in this movie, Kim Yeong-tak. A character that embodied the world perfectly and the reprecutions of those who were impacted by that ideology.

While this is a topic that by all means, is not new, the way it deliver these points across, was very impactful when you experience the journey trough the eyes of Min-seong's wife instead of partaking as an expectator and putting yourself in the shoes of one of these unfortunated characters which one of them was seong's wife, atleast for me. Making her and us understand the finale through her last scenes that exposed those who were in her position, as she finds herself in, is what made the ending of this movie and what represents, was quite the moment.
