A man's epic. In the big era, the little people gritted their teeth and worked hard all their lives. I rarely watch Korean movies. This movie does not have a big intention. Although it is tear-jerking, it is not sensational. It even tells the life of Yin Dexiu from a trivial perspective.
Since Xingnan retreated and separated from his father and sister in 1950, Dexiu took on the burden of the eldest son in the family. He was beaten up by the older children while shining his shoes on the street, and he didn't forget to give chocolate to his younger siblings. De became a miner, almost died in a mine accident, but life also gave Dexiu sweetness, and he gained the love of Miss Yingzi in West Germany. After returning to China, he had already obtained the admission letter from Ocean University, but because his sister could not afford her dowry, she went to Vietnam to earn US dollars again but lost a leg. Unexpectedly, there was no news of his father, but he unexpectedly found his sister in the United States. His whole life was fulfilling the promise that his father gave him, a promise that spanned half a century. This man who seeks life in difficult times is forbearing, tenacious, and responsible. Willing to sacrifice his life to fulfill his promise to his father.
Against this background, Deok-soo personally experienced the Korean War, a large number of migrant workers who went to Germany in exchange for foreign exchange, the Vietnam War, and the search for relatives in North and South Korea. There are too many tears in the film, and one or two tissues are obviously not enough, but people watching, why are your tears flowing? Everyone is coerced by the times, and the fate of the family and country has always been the same. Relatives who have been successful in finding relatives are still unable to reunite. After so many years, so many people have passed away, and the North and the South are still opposed. It is precisely because there are thousands of Deoksoo and Daju Korea that the economy can take off, and it is because of the trend-setters of the times like Zheng Zhouyong and Andre Kim that there are first-class companies that are comparable to the world.
