2000년 실제 있었던 용산 미군기지 발암 물질 싱크대 무단 방류 사건을 바탕으로 봉준호 감독이 실제 목격 했다고 하는 일화를 바탕으로 만들어진 영화 입니다. 당시에 사람들의 환경 관리에 대한 공감을 이끌어 내기에 충격적인 소재 여서 더욱 기억 되는 작품이며 이 작품 이후 영화계에서 봉준호 라는 이름은 감독으로서 크게 성장 하게 됩니다

I watched it as a kid and loved it. I didn't know Bong-Joon Ho back then. Little did I know that I will admire him as an adult. That's greatness right there!

Bong Joon-ho's movies are so wonderfully odd in their humor. I can't get this feeling from a lot of modern directors. That funeral scene with the photographers in the gym is peak Bong slapstick tragicomedy.
@anonymous8916 ай бұрын
Interestingly what a lot of people don't get is the movie's ending and how metaphorical it was.The ending symbolised the ignorance of common citizens (maybe specifically at koreans since its based on a true incident) about such envirnmentaly hazardous behaviour. It is is shown time to time and even the characters are written so. For example it is shown even in beginning how the news was showing how a guy was found dead near river but they skipped it.

The little daughter actress went on to have a respectable career. 22 films and series after this. She did a phenomenal job as the lead in the Japan occupation film 'Resistance'. Name Ko Ah-sung.

Fyi: The American actor who plays the scientist who orders the chemicals dumped down the drain was the late Scott Wilson. Became known for his part in the 60's film, "In Cold Blood", based on the Truman Capote novel. The novel is given credit for creating the popularity of the true crime genre of books and films. What made the story terrifying is that it, actually, happened.

What did you say,you mean all this big mutation sh*t happened, because of chemical poured into the sea?
@keithkurumaji38867 ай бұрын
Unless I'm thinking of a different film, at the beginning of the movie, chemicals are dumped down a lab drain that flow into the Han River (I believe that's the name of the river). I think there's a scene of fishermen catching a mutated fish, too. Then, later, voila! Amphibious monster! If I'm wrong, somebody correct me, please.
@JUSTBADANG4577 ай бұрын
@@keithkurumaji3886 maybe this could be true event,that fish they caught was mutated because of the chemical dumping into the river that happened in actual and so they made it in a movie according to the rumours .🤔
@keithkurumaji38867 ай бұрын
When I was referring to a true event, I was referring to "In Cold Blood", about the murder of a farm family in the Midwest (I believe Kansas), not the "The Host". Sorry for the confusion.

Thank you for your reaction and I enjoyed it. However, this is not a simple creature movie. It could be a little difficult to understand the deep meanings and metaphors of this movie for non-Koreans. for example, the poison scene is based on the real event, so-called as 'McFarland case' in which no one has been punished. the movie is satirizing the reality that helpless Korean government and Korean people obey to the grandiose power which works sometimes irrationally. Many people take the protection under the great power for granted and deny to get out of it. In Korea, the grandiose power that I mean is America. This is quite complicated political thing that just few Americans are might aware of. Such as, Korean government has no right to control own army in war time on Korean Peninsula, only the U.S military has the right. Yeah, the movie criticizes American government in some aspect but mostly towards Korean society. What the man who jumped into the river at the beginning of the movie says is what the director wants to say to Koreans. "Don't you see that? Why can't you see the obvious darkness?"

Sorry if it is shown multiple times to others; my comment is not appearing on my side so I am posting again: Love to see a new reaction of the Host! I also love that you seem to have a good grasp of the background culture, not just in the way Vivian says a few Korean words and so one, but you both just seem to understand at least on a certain level quite naturally. Anyways The Hose had been my favourite Bong Jun-ho film for a while (But that goes to say, I saved the Memories of Murder until the real killer was caught 😂). Side note: dumping formaldehyde in RIver Han is based on a true story that happened I think around 2000
