Emotional mistakes

On a lonely weekend, after watching N Korean love movies to pass the time, I decided to change my taste, so I chose "Kindly Gold".
Knowing that this film was many years ago, I saw the news that it participated in a certain film festival in a film magazine, and I probably remembered that this was Li Ying Ae's transformation work.
The heroine Li Ying Ai is no stranger to me. Although I don't see much of her works, her beautiful face alone is enough to impress people, making people feel warm and want to go mercy. Later, when I learned about her high education background, I was even more impressed with her. Because of her temperament, most of the films she starred in were romance films.
Romance films are the best of Korean filmmakers. An extremely clichéd love story has turned into a movie that has earned a lot of box office under their ingenuity, either making people laugh or make people snot. A lot of tears.
In fact, gangster films are also a common type in Korean films, but "Kindly Gold" has its own uniqueness, because she chose a female as the protagonist, which changed the look of a lot of sloppy old men in gangster films.
The entire film is less than two hours long, and tells a relatively simple story: the beautiful but ignorant Kim met a bad man when he was young and became pregnant unexpectedly. In order to achieve his sailing dream, the bad man did not hesitate to kill 4 children. When he kidnapped the fourth child, he was accidentally discovered by the police. In desperation, he forced Jin Zi to confess his guilt and threatened her with killing Jin Zi's daughter. Jin Zi was helpless. He was his scapegoat and was sentenced to 13 years in prison.
At the beginning of the film is the scene of Jin Zi's release from prison. She wears thin clothes, and her makeup is simple, but she paints bright red on her eyelids, and her face is expressionless, which makes people feel a little creepy.
After that, the film interspersed with the life of many gold in prison. She is gentle and kind, and treats each inmate well, so everyone likes to call her "kind gold". She will take the initiative to ask Ying to take care of anyone who is sick, and she will enlighten them with her own words and deeds if they are not used to the environment here. Therefore, she is deeply loved by her fellow inmates and the police, and even the most domineering "fat woman" can't bear to bully her at all. In prison, she always had a gentle smile on her face, which illuminated people's hearts like sunshine. These are undoubtedly very different from what she looked like when she was released from prison.
It turned out that Jin Zi had already started brewing a "revenge plan" 13 years ago... After she was released from prison, the plan was all under her control and went smoothly until the parents of the murdered child ended the devil's life, Jin Zi still Don't forget to add two shots at the end...
This movie actually tells a tragic and tender story under the shell of suspense and horror. A young girl ruined her future because of an ignorant love. From the moment she was imprisoned, she began to "atone for her sins", and this sin did not come from her hurting others, she was just atoning for herself and repenting for her mistakes. In 13 years, she quietly told her best inmates the secret in her heart, and she kept thinking about it behind closed doors. The inmates did not forget Jin Zi's help, so they all made up their minds to help her after she was released from prison.
The gold in prison seems to have changed. She seems to have forgotten her previous misfortune and decided to change her mind and start a new life. And how can we imagine how deep the scar is, it will never be removed in her heart.
At the end of the film, Jin Zi made a snow-white cake for her daughter, telling her to be as white as this cake. Here, Jin's redemption finally came to an end, but a woman has gone through half her life...
Debt owed by feelings, sometimes It will take a lifetime to repay.
