82 nyeonsaeng Kim Ji-yeong

A realistic movie drawing attention to full time mothers' psychological and lifestyle changes after getting married and giving birth in Asian countries. A touching story with great actors, worth watching.

This novel cause anger which most of the people try to stop the movie showing and curses the actress because of ego pride. It's contain the real life of what woman is facing who the man refusing to admit or don't talk about it. Gender discrimination happen every where but it is very serious in Asia because of last time ancestors stupidity teaching. It's hidden message contain about gender equality is everywhere if u observe well. Great performance by all the actors especially the mother acting is touching when....

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?

'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.

Just fall in love with this movie. I really like gong yoo role here, eventho Im not married but I wish I can be like gong yoo character in the future. Bestttt
