Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaIt was only supposed to cost around 4 billion won, as there were no big stars, mostly actors from or acquainted with Jang's Suda family through their past work. But filming and post-production CGI took much longer than expected, and the budget skyrocketed to 8 billion won, putting Jang's company in trouble: for a small production company like Film It Suda failing with this film would have been catastrophic.
- Quotes
Teacher Kim: [in English] How are you?
Smith: What?
Teacher Kim: How are you?
Smith: How do you think I am, huh? I mean, how do you think I am? Look at me, huh? I mean, look at me! I'm tied up with sticks here. You know, I feel like shit! Like shit!
Village Chief: [in Korean] Not going well?
Teacher Kim: It's strange. You can see, like it says here, sir.
Village Chief: I can't read that.
Teacher Kim: Yes, sir. Well, if I say
[in English]
Teacher Kim: 'How are you?', he should say
[in English]
Teacher Kim: 'Fine, and you?'. That's the right American answer, so then I can say,
[in English]
Teacher Kim: 'I'm fine'. Only then is this a completed thing. But he's a bit...
Villager: Why isn't he doing as he should? Is he picking a fight?
What can I say about ending? Bittersweet is the perfect word it's ending. I'm sad and at the same time overwhelmed. I loved this movie though I haven't much expectations about this as I'm not a war movie genre fan. But,however, I must say,this is WORTH WATCHING.
