🎾 Kim Ji Young Born 1982 Review This simply remarkable message

9/10 Bravo for the actor and actress for a tremendous storyline movie This storyline is really tremendous and its although not the one of the top best of my favourites but it indeed already caught my attention of a well made movie from the director, acting team and well written story. 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.

The pace becomes much much faster at the end with no further detail stories and of course, no surprise. 11 out of 55 found this helpful. Was this review helpful? Sign in to vote. Permalink

“What do you want from us? The dumb girls are too dumb, the smart girls are too smart, and the average girls are too unexceptional?” These are lines in Kim Jiyoung, Born 1982 by Cho Nam-joo, the Korean novel hailed by The Guardian as a “South Korean MeToo bestseller.” With the recent release of the English translation by Jamie Chang, the groundbreaking feminist novel is now available to readers who seek to understand how society has designed the struggles of the modern Korean woman. The book focuses on the silent and subtle injustices experienced by a woman named Kim Jiyoung, whose name is implied to represent the Korean “Everywoman.” Cho’s narrative tracks the progression from childhood to adulthood, with inequality as the central aspect of Jiyoung’s life. These stories, which read more like third-person anecdotes, are interspersed with commentary and statistics that problematize how gender inequality manifests in South Korea. To that effect, Cho’s reportage emphasizes the broader contexts of sexist practices and institutions, while Jiyoung herself serves as the individual microcosm where daily sexism becomes apparent. The almost “hybrid” nature of the book is instrumental in illustrating the dynamics of womanhood. It is here that Kim Jiyoung evolves beyond a specific literary character and is given greater depth as the representation for a societal issue. As a child, Jiyoung is forced to endure a classmate’s daily harassment under the justification of “boys will be boys.” As a young adult, she cannot get hired because she is a woman; when she does get a job, she cannot get promoted. When she is married, she is forced to sacrifice her job to be a wife, which is implied to be the “only” job that she needs. When she is pregnant, she is told she is entitled for arriving to work late. When she becomes a housewife, her domestic labor is demeaned. At its core, Kim Jiyoung, Born 1982 expresses a woman’s struggles with what has become mundane and mediocre, products of a society that relegates women to inferior positions. These instances of sexism express the book’s central idea that not only is it difficult to be a woman, but also that cultural values have influenced a woman’s identity. As such, these values have become embedded into the very fabric of South Korean society. They have come to determine how women are allowed to live. There are so many poignant moments in the novel that it is difficult to only talk about one. Rather, it is necessary to examine the entirety of these moments as a composite whole. Within Jiyoung’s experience, both the mundane and the mediocre stem from the denial of equal opportunity and upward mobility for a woman. Yet they are also reflections of how for the Korean woman, mediocrity becomes normalized. Jiyoung experiences the imposition of gender constructs through both microaggressions and blatant attacks. Her subliminal acts of rebellion against these constructs involve her assuming the role of different women she has known throughout her life, including her mother. She is suspected to have postnatal depression, but it is psychosis that she has been driven to by a patriarchal society. What Cho does superbly well is create an atmosphere of suffocation and frustration. She evokes this all-consuming sense of helplessness within the emptiness of Jiyoung’s life; there is a constant idea that for Jiyoung, there is no way of dismantling the patriarchy other than losing the identity that she has created within it. The disintegration of Kim Jiyoung’s identity becomes a kind of rebellion, and the chronological structure of the book adds to its power. The reader does not just witness Jiyoung’s sadness as a housewife, but the quiet anger throughout her life as a woman. The English translation of Kim Jiyoung, Born 1982 is admittedly not without shortcomings. There are parts where the language becomes so stiff that the book is difficult to truly comprehend. At times, the dialogue is awkwardly stilted, one of the issues that comes with translation as a process. But Chang handles Cho’s simplicity with skill, rendering the same ideas that were so powerful in the original. With Cho’s sensitive and forceful writing, Jiyoung becomes more than the profile of a Korean woman. She becomes universal, an expression of not only the “Everywoman” of injustices, but the “Everywoman” of human experience. “What do you want from us?” Jiyoung asks. Cho never gives an answer.

Slowly unravelling the patriarchy in a common woman’s life against the backdrop of a developed South Korea, Kim Ji-young Born 1982’ is a story millions of women can relate to. A combination of facts and fiction, it works to show the pressing reality of women in Korea and, at large, the world. While the author Cho Nam-joo faced huge backlash for the novella, the footnotes backing up the statistics she has used stand by her against every negative commentary regarding the story’s accuracy. Considered to be a large inspiration for the MeToo movement in South Korea following the murder of a woman at the Gangnam metro station in 2016, it’s an international bestseller and one of the first feminist writings emerging from the narrative starts with Kim Ji-young’s husband observing a gradual change in Kim Ji-young’s behaviour. This change is unusual and uncharacteristic of Ji-young. What ticked it off? While the reasons were clear to me from the very beginning, people around Ji-young are baffled. Without warning, Ji-young loses her sense of self and talks and behaves as if possessed by the spirit of other women in her life, alive or dead. A scary thing for her husband to witness. A circumstance they fail to unravelling the patriarchy in a common woman’s life against the backdrop of a developed South Korea, Kim Ji-young Born 1982’ is a story millions of women can relate to. A combination of facts and fiction, it works to show the pressing reality of women in Korea and, at large, the world. While the author Cho Nam-joo faced huge backlash for the novella, the footnotes backing up the statistics she has used stand by her against every negative commentary regarding the story’s the reason behind the sudden change in Ji-young’s behaviour can easily be traced back to institutionalised patriarchy. The story works to cover plenty of complex yet fundamental themes and seems like a true story brought to life. After the initial observations of her husband, the narrative proceeds in the third person and talks of Ji-young’s life at different stages, at points also talking of the difficult life her mother had to lead. From Ji-young’s childhood, we can see that there was a clear distinction between the girl children and the boy in the difference in treatment was extremely normalised to the extent that it continued to be the natural cycle of everything. Both the sisters share a room because the brother needs his own space. The grandmother coddled the brother and scolded the sisters. The brother always got more, while the sisters shared everything they ever got. It was obvious the boy was loved more. It was clear he was the family’s pride even before he came into the Ji-young’s mother gave birth to the two sisters, everyone hoped the third one would be a boy. But when the mother was pregnant with her third baby, multiple factors led her to believe the third child would yet again be a girl. Out of desperation and unsolicited pressure, she aborted her third baby. Because who can explain to these people that a family with only daughters is also complete and as enriched as one with a son? Following these unfortunate circumstances, Ji-young’s mother gave birth to the family’s most adored baby boy. Every action in such a constricted family dynamic results in a natural flow of oppression. Ji-young and her sister, Kim Eun-young, constantly make sacrifices from their childhood whilst never questioning or realising why. The same goes for their mother, who had to give up her schooling and work to ensure that her brothers could go to school and be the shining stars they needed to be. Today, while her daughters have more choices, the chains of patriarchy, directly and indirectly, bind them difference in treatment was extremely normalised to the extent that it continued to be the natural cycle of everything.

The brother always got more, while the sisters shared everything they ever got. It was obvious the boy was loved more. It was clear he was the family’s pride even before he came into the Ji-young goes through an episode of harassment while coming home after dark from an academy far from her house, her father makes it about her rather than empathising with her daughter. Eventually, it becomes her fault because she came back late, because she goes to an academy far from home and because maybe her skirt was too short. But the perpetrator?According to decades worth of information, statements by public figures, and the family environment of millions of women, the victim is always at fault. Until recently, no one tried to question the lack of critical thinking and logic behind these accusations. Why can’t the world be made safer for women? Why isn’t the perpetrator not at fault? Why should Ji-young backtrack on her education for this? Multiple questions were left it doesn’t end here. As Ji-young reaches adulthood and starts working, we see her push as hard as she can, yet no amount of hard work can help her push past the sexist boundaries drawn by her superiors to keep their higher teams devoid of female workers who they believe will ultimately leave one day after marriage or after giving birth. A reality Ji-young experiences as Ji-young gets pregnant with her daughter, there is a clash between her and her husband. They try their best to work it out so that Ji-young can go back to work after her maternity leaves end, but circumstances ensure that she is the one to give up her career. The explanation is simple, given the gender pay gap, Ji-young can’t make as much money as her husband, and the amount she currently earns can not support the three of them. All things considered, Ji-young gives up the job she loves with a broken heart. Throughout every one, her husband presents himself as someone who understands, someone who wants to help but unsurprisingly fails to do so. After a point, Ji-young’s suffering is something she finds herself unable to share. When her friend from work visits her, the current climate of the workplace is something hard to read without feeling uncomfortable. This part talks of the spycam situation in most of Asia and its impact on the in our world, society somehow finds a way to blame this on women as well. In the story, the workers’ only female superior fights alongside all the women of the office. The heads want to make the happenings non-existent and quiet down the this, the female boss and multiple women workers leave the company. While Ji-young is partly relieved that she wasn’t a part of the company during this, her heart aches for the trouble women have to go through to be independent and make a name for now, her daughter is growing well and healthy, but in her heart Ji-young is lonely. She feels a lack of purpose in her life. The insults of people take a toll on her, but there is a lack of understanding from those around her because, traditionally, you are not supposed to talk about these things. You suffer quietly because that’s how it everyone seems to collectively not understand that Ji-young’s condition’ is a by-product of patriarchy’s centuries worth of oppression. Any community that has been historically oppressed and has been made to feel weak and without a voice struggles to find a way out of the systemic oppression in their life.
