Since then, he has starred in variety shows and film and television works such as "You Are Surrounded", " Flower Travel Notes ", "Three Meals a Day", and has become a veritable "comedy king" in South Korea with his comedy talent and superb acting skills.
This year, the comedy king Cha Seung-won returns with his new work "Come on, Mr. Lee" , which will be released in South Korea on September 11. As long as you are willing to open it, you will definitely be moved.
The story happened to a man named Li Zhexiu. Handsome and tall. She is the dream lover of all women in the community. However, the reality is very skinny. The mighty and handsome Zhexiu has some problems with his spirit. He can't understand people's words very well, and is always stupid.
One day, Zhexiu met an old lady on the road.
The old lady said that she could not read the map, and hoped that Zhexiu could get in the car and help him show the way. The pure Zhexiu believed the old lady's words, and was "abducted" to the hospital to meet a girl named Xiaoxing.
Xiaoxing is very cute, always smiling sweetly. Contrasting with Xiaoxing's sweet smile, is the top of her bald head. Leukemia deprived her of her right to grow up healthily, and she could only stay in a cold hospital.
Zhexiu is Xiaoxing's biological father, so the old lady hopes that he can be paired with Xiaoxing.A warm and touching story begins, earning enough tears from the audience...
Healing, tearing, angering. These are the three most important emotions in "Come on, Mr. Lee". Especially the appearance of the element of "anger" means that it is not a simple family story, but has more other complex emotions.
The key plot in the film is "Xiaoxing sneaks out of the hospital because she wants to buy a gift for a patient". Zhexiu was very worried and refused to let Xiaoxing leave the hospital. But the clumsy he did not succeed in stopping him, and could only follow his daughter secretly.
Because of the lack of father's company in the past years, Xiaoxing does not like Zhexiu very much.
Like a little adult, Zhexiu, who refused to give himself a blood transfusion, said he was stupid, and he didn't want to be as stupid as him. The feigned mature demeanor makes the audience feel amused.
There are plenty of jokes like this that make the audience laugh while watching the movie. But at the same time, the film did not forget the presentation of tears and the depth of the story behind them: there was a very sad past between Zhexiu and his daughter Xiaoxing, and this past happened in Korean society.
That was a fire that was considered indulgent. The location was the Daegu subway in South Korea, where 119 people were killed and 147 injured. As a firefighter, Zhexiu must go to the front line to rescue the trapped people from the subway. I didn't know until the end that my wife who was about to give birth was also in it...
This setting instantly elevates the core of the film, making it change from an ordinary "father-daughter family comedy" to one related to responsibility, gain and loss, and regret. story. Even, it boldly denounced the cause of the fire in the story, and grieved for the victims who lost their loved ones.
The character of Zhexiu is very distressing.
Rescuing the trapped is the responsibility of the firefighters, and it is inevitable. But life and his jokes are too big and cruel to understand. Although he is a good person, he is forced to suffer the pain of losing a loved one. Why are there so many unfair things in life?
The story starts with Zhexiu's innate fatherly love, and uses the attitude of Xiaoxing and other children who are seriously ill to tears.
Zhexiu didn't understand why such a bad luck would befall him. The reason why I became stupid is because deep down I want to escape this thing.
In contrast, children have too many life experiences and do not know what is gained and lost. So they are more fearless, seize every moment, and live the life they want most.
It is obvious that what "Come on, Mr. Li" really wants to tell is the survivor's attitude towards the harm "inflicted by life", so that the audience can get the desired answer through laughter and tears. Such a profound and watchable movie deserves to be seen by more people.
