    The "Minari" rooted in dreamland is similar to the "Oud" in "The Edge". The film attempts to show the process of reverse colonization of Korean national culture by Western civilization through the process of a Korean family colonizing the United States. The author argues that the premise for the family to accept Westernization is loneliness. Clearly, children who are not alone have no idea what loneliness is. The one who really appreciates this loneliness is the adults who work hard on this...

    The immigrant family version of "Marriage Story", on the whole, is like an unpretentious immigrant family letter. Although I knew that it was based on the director's own story, the dramatic ending in the end was a little abrupt. Although Yin Ruzhen is very vocal, I personally think that the performance of "Miss Bacchus" is better than this...

    The impact of the American Dream on family relationships and the relationship between grandparents and grandchildren of immigrant families are good points. Besides, the character of the grandmother is so remarkable. Religious...

    A beginning without a beginning, an ending without an ending, the screenwriter sinks his heart to write the process, but in the third act, there is impatience and haste. Maybe it’s because of my strange focus. My sister, who doesn’t have a lot of roles and doesn’t have an independent storyline, makes me the most curious. I’m always ignored by my younger brother who has congenital diseases....

    I can watch 100 episodes of the rivalry between my grandmother and my grandson. The details of life are so charming. Grandma Yin is the cutest old man in Korean film and television dramas, which can be compared with the tree Xilin in...

    7.5/10 The American dream of Korean immigrant families is quite an oriental story. Minari (water celery) is an appropriate finishing touch as a metaphor for life, growing wildly and surviving. Hearing the songs that the couple liked to sing in Korea again, they were dumbfounded. The actual beating made them lose all their fun. The soundtrack is a bit full, the shallow focus is a bit dense, and the rhythm is a bit loose, but the emotional power is still smashing into your heart. The actors'...

    I watched a clip in Sky, and it was a sad movie in the bland. It left my hometown as an immigrant to open up a new life. I grew vegetables in an empty and wild land, but I failed to find a new life. It also caused conflicts between families who were supposed to support each other. It takes a lot of luck to support each other and take root in a new...

    Korean American Dream-Song of Water Celery

    This is a story about the American dream of Koreans. It uses Minari (water celery) as a metaphor to extol Koreans like water celery, which has vigorous vitality in any country.

    However, when Jacob made up his mind to grow vegetables to sell to Koreans, he was essentially no different from the...

Minari quotes

  • Soonja: Minari is truly the best. It grows anywhere, like weeds. So anyone can pick and eat it. Rich or poor, anyone can enjoy it and be healthy. Minari can be put in kimchi, put in stew, put in soup. It can be medicine if you are sick. Minari is wonderful, wonderful!

  • Jacob: They need to see me succeed at something for once.

    Monica: For what? Isn't it more important for them to see us together?

    Jacob: You go ahead and do what you want. Even if I fail, I have to finish what I started.
