"Poisoning in the World" starring Song Chengxian, Lin Jiyan, Zhao Ruzhen, Wen Zhuwan, etc., is a story that reflects the trauma of soldiers after the war and regards the love of injustice as an emotional sustenance. After the movie was released, it caused very big controversy, especially It is one of the main crimes for the majority of women that this movie describes infidelity so beautifully. But in fact, to understand this movie, one must understand the historical background of the movie.
The Vietnam War should not be unfamiliar to everyone. Anyone who has studied history knows that between 1955 and 1975, the confrontation between South Vietnam and North Vietnam broke out. Due to the intervention of the United States, South Korea sent a total of 320,000 people from 1964 to 1973. During the Vietnam War, the rapes and mass killings of Vietnamese women were carried out. Famous incidents include the massacre of Taiping Village, Fengyi and Fenger Massacre. There was a report at the beginning of the
movie. On February 12, 1969, the Korean army launched a campaign to sweep the Viet Cong. The combat area was in the Viet Cong area, and the rebirth of vegetation was not easy. The protagonist Jin Jinping participated in the raid and returned to Korea, so the story happened in the summer of 1969. Jin Jinping, who returned to South Korea, was the captain of the education team and the leader. On the surface, he was admired and praised by many lower officials, but he talked about him in private. The point is that Jin Jinping, who returned to South Korea, suffered from post-war psychological trauma. He often had insomnia at night and dreamed of war scenes and needed medication for mental illness. He did not tell anyone about his illness, including his wife.
Jin Jinping, who was suffering from illness alone, met Zhong Jiaxin, the Chinese wife of his subordinate, Captain Jing, this summer. Zhong Jiaxin’s growth experience was not good. When he was a child, because of the war, the family hid in the mountains, his father fell ill, his mother abandoned them, and his father again After she passed away, she was taken down the mountain by guarding her father's body for a long time, and later met Captain Jing's family, who raped her and married her when she was 13 years old.
Zhong Jiaxin’s pain comes from growing up and living with someone who doesn’t like people, maybe because of their similar personalities, maybe because of the pain of the same life, two people are attracted to each other. For Jin Zhenping, Zhong Jiaxin is a touch of sunshine in the dark life, and for Zhong Jiaxin, Jin Zhenping may be just a seasoning in the dull life. Zhong Jiaxin does not love Jin Zhenping as deeply.
At the end of the movie, a group of officials and wives were discussing that if someone used his life to love himself, would he go with him? Everyone is silent, maybe everyone has their own answer. But for Chung Jiaxin, she didn’t. She rejected Jin Zhenping. Although on the surface she said she didn’t want to ruin Jin Zhenping’s future, in fact, she did not love Jin Zhenping as deeply. What she liked was peace and stability. Life, what I want is to be with the people I like without considering the eyes of the surroundings, but it is clear that Jin Jinping cannot give her the life she wants, and she is just an ordinary woman.
The encounter and love of the two of them is not accidental or inevitable, maybe it's just the right person at the wrong time. Many people say that this kind of unethical love is very bad, and cheating is cheating, but emotional matters are difficult to tell. No one is in that moment and cannot understand the respective moods of the male and female protagonists.
In other words, things like this happen in real life, lacking too much beauty, and there will be more ugly tears. People are rational, and no one is as crazy as Jin Zhenping. Movies are movies after all, and everyone is not Jin Zhenping or Zhong Jiaxin.
