"Itaewon Murder" is a Korean movie. Unlike other Korean movies, Gao Tian, this movie is more about restoring the reality of girls being killed. A large part of
talks about how terrible the abuse of power by upper-level officials is, and even this abuse of power almost killed a young girl in vain.
Korean movies are the most authentic, not only because Korean directors are very capable, but also because true stories are always shocking. Perhaps the most feared sentence in movies is "this film is adapted from real facts."
01
What is the reason for the tragic death of a girl in the bathroom?
One day in 1997, a female corpse appeared in a hamburger restaurant in Itaewon. The death of the woman was extremely miserable. She was stabbed with a lot of knives. It seemed that the murderer was in a trick. The young woman has blood and deep hatred.
However, the woman is very ordinary, comes from a simple family, the family has no power and no power, the child suddenly died, and the parents would only cry. The girl
is as ordinary as a small drop in the sea. After the incident, the South Korean police are also actively solving the case.
But it is extremely difficult to solve the case, because the scene of the crime was ruined in an improper manner, and very few evidences can be found that led to the death of the girl. Is this girl going to die?
This is just the beginning part, like many cases, there is no clue, perhaps because of the tragedy caused by the quarrel with the boyfriend, or perhaps the absurd thing made by the rival.
But when you really know Itaewon, you might not think so.

The mystery of Itaewon lies in the "mystery" of people
Itaewon is a very mysterious place. Many powerful and powerful people can be around here, and the boys around here are not mixed races or military officers. All of the children are not easy to mess with.
They sing, dance, drink, and do whatever they want with their special identity.
Actually, the murderer was among them. The police knew it, and even the public knew it, but there was no evidence. After investigation,
locked the murderer on Pearson and AJ. Both fathers were powerful and powerful, and the identities of the two were not ordinary.
Pearson’s father is a U.S. military, and Pearson’s identity is naturally not open to anyone who wants to investigate. It involves military secrets and often cannot bear responsibility. And AJ's father is even more powerful, how can he let his son get into the game easily.
As long as the two fathers are lightly moved, the police are helpless.
South Korea has a huge number of US troops, and this historical issue has been around since 1953. In order to better control South Korea, the United States signed a "" with South Korea, so these US officials in South Korea represent the power of the United States.
This is something that makes it difficult for the South Korean government to decide.
In this way, Pearson and AJ accused each other of being the murderer, and could not be convicted.
In fact, this reflects the reality of South Korea at the time. South Korea is helpless, but watching the tragic death of a young girl for no reason, we must give the people an explanation. The tragic death of the
girl is actually just a portrayal of the proliferation of power in the society at the time. It is precisely because of the obstruction of Pearson's father and AJ's father that the case progresses slowly. The film
actually describes the process of the girl’s tragic death very simply. The focus is on how quibble Pearson and AJ are. They are very cunning and unwilling to tell the truth.
has his own father backing him, so he does whatever he wants, has no awe in life, no shame in what he has done, and even a confession on the front, which changes again in the next second.

justice will be late, but it will definitely come
Who is the murderer? This will be the doubt of all of us, so let's take a look at the testimony of both of them.
Pearson said it was AJ who killed the female after taking drugschild.
and AJ was accused of murder by his classmates.
When a person is under in-depth investigation, their father will use his relationship. However, it is such a case that has not been closed after more than ten years. It was only in 2015 that
really determined who the murderer was. We know that one of the two people must have lied, and that is Pearson.
In fact, Pearson was very cunning. He repeatedly identified AJ because there were no other witnesses, but in the end, the South Korean government really played its role and brought Pearson to justice.
In fact, the United States sent troops to South Korea, which has a certain impact on South Korea’s politics, economy, and culture. This is also a problem left over from history.
However, I have to say that this film vividly expresses the severe situation in Korea in 1997, but it also reflects the spirit of the Korean people's continuous pursuit of the truth.
No nation is a nation that keeps bowing its head. South Korea has gone through a painful stage, but with the efforts of the people, justice has not been late.
Summary:
is a very real movie I have seen. In the movie, there are youth rebelliousness, contradictions between ethnic groups, the stubbornness of the Korean people, the helplessness of the government, and the innocence of life.
But in the end, this film still gives us unlimited enlightenment.
If a country wants to be stable, it must have its own sovereignty. This is what we have always preached. A lively girl is a member of South Korea. When pursuing the truth, every South Korean is working hard.
Because if you lower your head, you might be the next girl. The historical issue of
is always worthy of our pondering. Behind every true fact, there are bitterness and tears. This movie is really worth watching. There is no exaggeration, but it is infuriating. You are worth watching.
