We often forget about the sacrifices our mothers make for us as a parent and as women.

This definitely deserve to be on one of the top movies in Korea between 2019 and 2020. This story also touches the real society in Korea and a lot of advance countries too share the same problems. From my knowledge, a lot of countries are far worse on these problems. Gender discrimination is so huge and either worse than or comparable to racism or religion differences. This movie reminds us man to be more mature and to accept those females challenges. As a male, I admit that I always see that males use sex differences to avoid competition with the females. Males can be jealous, anxious and desperate as the females because we are all humans too. 13 out of 13 found this helpful. Was this review helpful? Sign in to vote. Permalink 9/10 Speak for girls. It is said that after the publication of the novel and the release of the film, the majority of south Korean men still launched an endless online abuse and boycott, so it is conceivable that in Asia, the status of women is so low that even though some people have awakened, most people still feel accustomed to rights are not just a "METOO" movement. They are needed in every aspect of society, from the home to the hope everyone, women can speak for themselves, and men can speak for women, as a talk show host urged on the program if you keep silent and think it's not your business, then you are an accomplice. 35 out of 37 found this helpful.

Permalink 9/10 You gotta watch it I like this movie. Cinematic wise, it was awesome. Beautifully captured. Story wise, this was one hidden-gem just like The Parasite Movie another must-watch Korean Movie.I think the story depicted on how 'woman' perceived in the Korean society/ Asian culture. It highlights several social issues for woman career, dream, self-dependent, social/peer pressure, social expectation of 'what a good wife/good woman should be/act by presenting us the life of Kim Ji-Young, young wife lived with her little daughter and the story,the characters in it overcame the issues in quite realistic way that maybe some of us can relate to our actual life. After watching it, I feel empowered and satisfied. 25 out of 28 found this helpful. Was this review helpful? Sign in to vote.

Permalink 9/10 Must watch Korean Movie It is true that the pace of the movie is slow with the very very light topic. However it is really happening arround us. The gender discrimination, pressure from parents, family and family in law versus our needs, dreams and today's life. As light as the topic, this kind of issue rarely being disccuss on public, then the person who have the problem need to find out by them self without support from the inner circle or the worse they don't even know it Every single of us having our own trouble, and there's no one else can stepping our shoes tho? Then why spending energy go hurt others? 19 out of 22 found this helpful. Was this review helpful? Sign in to vote. Permalink 8/10 Motherhood is it an easy feat? 'Kim Ji-Young, Born 1982' is based on a fiction novel by Cho Nam-joo that was published in October 2016. Cho only took two months to write the novel as the character's life relates to her own life. She mentioned that "Kim Ji-young's life isn't much different from the one I have lived. That's why I was able to write so quickly without much preparation."The novel is a critique of the patriarchal system that is still very much alive in South Korea's women's lives that depicts what happens from childhood to adulthood after marriage. The lead actor Gong Yoo and actress Jung Yu-mi were brilliant in the film. Even from the opening scene, we can already sense the tension in this film. This film would like to also show how being a stay-at-home mother is never an easy feat. Everyone will have a desire to accomplish things outside private life, however, this is easier for men than it is for women. A secret that is often kept secret is the fact that most women go through depression while trying to be a good mother. This film explored that taboo subject. 13 out of 16 found this helpful.

Permalink 8/10 for everyone in the world Warning Spoilers "Jin Zhiying Born in 1982" describes a Korean woman born in 1982, who lived to speak in the tone of her mother and school sister in 2019, bringing out the whole story. And Jin Zhiying is the name of the Korean vegetable market, so it also has the meaning for all "Jin Zhiying". I am interested in this movie because I read this book before the movie was released, but because the chronology in the book is interspersed, and not only the heroine Kim Ji-young, but also the story of her mother, plus I am intermittently Reading this book, it is easy to forget the details or the plot in front, so I didn't understand the chronology of the book very well at the time. After watching the video, I did clarify a lot of things that I didn't understand, although the movie has some plot adaptations. The female's name became someone's wife and the child's mother. This is the plot that I most impressed when I was reading a novel. I don't know when Jin Zhiying's name became Mrs. Zheng and Mother Yaying. Every night at 8 o'clock in the evening, all the people waiting for the garbage truck under my building are women, of course there are also men, but the ratio is about eight to two, and women are called Mrs. Wang, Mrs. Chen..., so I am right This part is quite impressive. Also, when Zhiying was pregnant, Dae-hyun said to her, "Giving birth to a child will not change anything." Later, when Dae-hyun saw that Ji-young was tired, he said to Ji-young, "I will help you with housework" and "Mom". The clips are the clips in this movie that I was surprised and didn't believe ?. But one of the scenes that impressed me the most was the part where Jiyoung's face was radiant when he got better at the end. His skin changed from the original wrinkle to luminous, and his eyes became piercing and piercing. The angle of light just made Jiyoung. Standing in the bright place of the bed curtain, with the circle in slightly from the bottom up, I think this is probably the most successful scene of this movie. There is no gorgeous mirroring and editing in the movie, and even the soundtrack has only one song, but this can make it closer to our daily life without losing the standard of the movie. The two protagonists always mentioned the word ordinary when they were interviewed. I hope this movie can give people comfort and reflect on family, parents... and other issues that are usually not taken into the plots presented in this movie are all possible and happening, and they are all examples of what happened to my mother or my side, so I don't think the movie is too deliberately arranged, but Koreans are required to receive and Acknowledging that this is a big challenge for them related to nationality, and that the film vilifies men. And South Korea's patriarchal society, coupled with deteriorating feminists and some misogynistic people, made Zheng Youmei and Kong Liu no less opposed than supporting voices when the news of the movie came out. Social software also used a lot of offensiveness. watching the movie, I thought about whether this is considered a South Korean film to be transformed into justice ? 5 out of 5 found this helpful.

And yet even in other Asian countries may sense similar feelings as most agricultural economy driven countries treat differently boys to girls. Even raised as kids, we sense the difference. Moms never come to dinning board and always buried in preparation of breakfast, lunch, dinner and tones of dishes. The movie generate discussion around women's right and how bias grown among society. Even today, our elder generation may still press by their old thoughts against young ones. Not only work, raising kids, mental health will you find in the movie but also how those small events trigger deep sorrow and emptiness in a mom. Worth watching and discuss how to treat people around differently without unconscious bias. 8 out of 9 found this helpful. Was this review helpful? Sign in to vote.

Not an easy movie to watch but illuminating. She has a beautiful daughter and a nice husband. So why is she depressed? Her career was given up for that. Her mother in law expects her to just cook and look after the baby. Her husband is supportive and so is her mother. She even has a job offer to return to work. But she is depressed. Not terrible life threatening problems but real issues that every woman faces after having a child. Not sure about the conclusion. Wish things had been more definitive. 6 out of 23 found this helpful. Was this review helpful? Sign in to vote. Permalink 8/10 Cinema Omnivore - Kim Ji-young Born 1982 2019 "Kim's directorial guideline is in accord with a recognizable day-to-day urban view without much specificity - occasionally warm light shots through and soft-focus pleasantness takes hold, and munificently permits actors to perform for all they are worth. Among which, Jung Yu-mi fully lives up to or even surpasses one's expectation as Ji-young, turbulence flows and ebbs underneath her docile comportment with such exquisite potency. Holding Ji-young's dignity intact, Jung registers chronic sufferance with piercing empathy and devastating impact, her excellence reaches its crashing crescendo during the key sequences with cracking screen partners like Gong Yoo, who voluntarily plays the second banana with beguiling benevolence, and Kim Mi-kyung, who plays Ji-young's hardworking mother and whose outpourings are roundly soul-shattering."read my full review on my blog Cinema Omnivore, thanks. 0 out of 2 found this helpful.

I loved how this movie covered topics like gender roles, gender inequality, and things that women struggle with in our current society. This film was able to cover all those topics accurately, but not in an aggressive way. The acting was phenomenal too, I cried so much in one of the scenes because the acting made the scene much more realistic and believable. I loved the wholesome moments as well as it reminded me of family and friendships. More films like this would be great to spread awareness one situations like this, just like how this movie so perfectly did. 0 out of 0 found this helpful. Was this review helpful? Sign in to vote.

Permalink Based off the controversial autobiographical novel of the same name, “Kim Ji-Young, Born 1982” is a heart-wrenching uncovering of what it means to be a woman in a conservative patriarchal society. The movie stars veteran actors Gong Yoo Dae Hyun and Jung Yu-Mi Kim Ji-Young as leads, who have formerly worked together on the award-winning film “Train to Busan”. Following the protagonist Kim Ji-Young in the 80’s, the general storyline revolves around her troubled mental health that causes her to have lapses where she speaks as if she were her deceased grandmother or friend. Given the fame the feminist novel has garnered before the release of this film, it is expected that what matters more is not the storyline, but how the details of the story are presented through the female lens. With a focus on mother figures, the film’s narration forces us to critically examine stereotypical notions of a woman’s duties in the domestic sphere by highlighting its occurrence in daily life. For instance, we constantly see a favouritism towards men displayed by both male and female characters, especially from Dae Hyun’s mother who expects Ji-Young to work tirelessly throughout dinner preparations while her son sits idly. It is likely that many will identify with or have seen similar experiences, making the film’s impact all the more significant without having to explicitly state sexist tendencies of a conservative society. Aside from highlighting prominence of sexism in the everyday, the movie also expertly portrays how society’s patriarchy has progressed through the years. Through interactions between three generations of characters, we get to understand the motivations behind their actions, and the grievances as a result of sexist ideas. The use of Ji-Young’s condition to provide a voice for oppressed women was a well-done narration that gives greater insight into the conservative Korean society. What the film does particularly well is their use of male characters — while it is undeniable that Dae Hyun and Ji-Young’s father care for Ji-Young greatly, they are still susceptible to sexist tendencies that they may not have even been conscious of. This brings into focus that inequality may not always be born from hatred, but from the lack of awareness. The film also has skillful cinematography that leans towards an arthouse style, with jarring transitions that creates tension and draws audiences into the tortured minds of the characters. The only gripe would be that the time skips can cause some confusion in terms of characters; it becomes hard to name who’s who after various characters are introduced in a short time. Aside from that, the film was overall a thought-provoking watch that, while controversial, presents an empathetic depiction of women in Asian society that is not often highlighted. You can expect to become emotional throughout various points of the film, and reflective after. Although not necessarily an exciting movie for mass audiences, it is definitely a gripping watch, especially if feminist topics and societal issues are within your field of interest!
