The world sketched by Kim Ki-duk: Jie Rong, who redeems men with sex, in order to realize her dream of traveling in Europe with her friends. After Jierong died, she used to pay back the men who had sex with Jierong and have sex with them to get rid of her guilty friends. Use your own way to stop the adult world from harming her daughter and take revenge on the fathers of those dirty clients.
...
Jie Rong's pure kindness and innocence had a hint of evil spirits. Yes, it's completely free of impurities that makes people suspicious. People deny, stifle what they are uncertain about. Identify it as potentially dangerous. Jie Rong plays an innocent girl on a fishing boat in "The Bow". Her beauty is startling, a hint of wanting to plunder and invade. This kind of scarce beauty makes people want to plunder too much, so pure and true laughing, making you temporarily away from reality, perhaps this is the redemption that Jie Rong is pursuing, the meaning of the first chapter of the film.
The other girl had a virgin face, a chaste and strong face profile, and a puzzled and distressed smile.
Watching the film, the character I was most involved in was the girl's father. He lives closest to me. I will also play a similar role in my life. I grew up as his daughter-sized child under the protection of such a character. I accompanied him for a moment of shock and disbelief. Along with him, he lost his soul and gave birth to a roar of anger. When he was silent as a solemn and sad sculpture, I was the fallen leaves after the autumn rain falling above his car, with a little sympathy for each other. He punishes every man who wants to have sex with her daughter, and I break out with him in silence. Love is like a trickle, he who doesn't expose it on the daughter's side, and anger on the client's side. In desperation, I brought hope to my daughter who still wants to live, taught her to drive with a smile, got in the police car that arrested him and left...
This edge of the world reminds me vaguely:
the failure of communication, between Jie Rong and the client side, on the side of the other girl and her dad.
The collision of two worlds, the pure world of minors and the world of secular adults.
The most impressive thing is at the end of the film. The girl had a dream that she was strangled by her father and buried by the river. Her father still brought her headphones to wake her up, and the CD player released soft music. Like letting her sleep forever, safe, under his protection.
Is it a metaphor for a girl to escape from this complex world and lose her sense of security, or is it a guilt for her father.
