Screening Humanity | 인간극장 - Suyeong's Story, part 3 (2014.06.11)

[@seward9]

As a french adopted from Korea, i feel very close from Suyeong and Matthieu. I think the documentary is very touching and so interesting. I totally agree to their way of life, Matthieu explains himself very well, and i think he's right about what is matter the most in their lives. I really hope they have a good life where they choose to be.

There are many cultural barriers that are in the way of Suyeong and her mother. Right now the main thing they disagree on is the Korean system of postnatal care. Suyeong and her husband live life in a very carefree manner and that is very different to most Koreans including her mother.

As a native Korean who is doing an exchange program in France, I can understand the frustration from both the mom's and the daughter's point of view. To those comments below, it is very natural and not at alll imposing nor nosy for a mother to care for their expectant daughters. In fact most new mothers go to their mother's house or a maternity center for about 2-3 weeks to nourish themselves with hearty homemade meals and to recover from the aftereffects of a birth. Just FYI. In many asian countries, family comes before individuals even if many well-developed or developing Asian countries have become more individualistic with democratization and western influences. Although the mom can really never make up for the time lost, she is trying her best in a way many westerners can't understand which can be frustrating to the viewers. But to Ms. Suyeong and her mom, I wish all the best for your family.

those who call him a loser should know he chose to stay in Korea with his wife so she can connect with her mother and her culture~ he can easily go back to France & find a job to support his wife but he chose to stay with his wife to support her~ hes not a lose but a very caring husband

[@akuxsukaassgnmnt]

thankyou! at least some relevant points here. why are they kept saying he's a loser. being tight and go on office like a prison everyday is their way as not being loser? they made that choice in life to be free..

[@waylt]

I agree. They both have graduated from university and can easily go back to France if things don't go well. However I doubt they will since they really seem to enjoy life in Jeju-do. I don't think Matthieu is a loser at all. People expect him to get a job in Korea but do not realize that he is not Korean and not being completely fluent makes it a lot harder to find a job. At least they are both making an effort to take Korean language classes hoping to cross the language barrier.

훌륭하게 자란 모습 보기만 해도 행복하리라 믿어요

[@steffytan6356]

I am not sure why ppl criticised her of married a loser. Basically they just want their life to be freedom, they are lively their life fullest and doing what the want. Can we actually do that, it need alot courage & sacrificing.

[@fumiekurihara268]

I was very happy first 2 episodes that the daughter and her mom reunited but as I was watching this episode I was very concern that her mom is bit over barring, I believe she want to make up all the time she lost with her daughter but this will just make situation uncomfortable... Hope everything will work out well.

[@symphoniix]

Wow the cultural differences is probably frustrating for the mother, you can see it in her eyes. And at the end the mother should have just went in and sat down to wait!

[@saga2828]

they are all so nice, but the cultural differences are hard to overcome. for example, i think that it's wonderful that mother wants to help the kids, but she shouldn't push them or order them. on the other hand, why didn't they let her come into their flat? and she had to wait outside... or maybe she just wanted to... anyway, i hope they'll learn to live together ^^

[@saga2828]

oh, i know now. it's explained in the next episode ;p

[@yasminsani2795]

some of us have different views which i believe due to different cultures

[@JillTomson]

They are not materialistic and live in freedom, living the way they want to live. They don't worry about what others think, material things, nor worry about working to get rich. They live well. I know they sometimes worry about money so they need to work sometime. The hubby should look up work in Jeju's many farms and orchards that are short of farm hands. You don't need to know Korean to pick oranges. There are plenty of jobs in the farms because there are shortage of farm workers.

이 방송 보는 한국 엄마들. 제발 걱정거리 일부러 만들어서 걱정하는 것 좀 고쳐주세요. 그리고 의견 차이가 있을 때는 자녀의 의견도 제발 좀 들어 보고요. 60년 전 사고방식의 사람과 지금의 사람과 사고방식이 같을 수는 없는 거에요. 그런데도 무조건 밀어붙이기만 하는 건 정말 안 좋은 습관이라고 생각합니다.

엄마가 고생할까봐 미안스러워서 그러는 딸들도 있어요
