1987: When the Day Comes

As a Chinese, I'm so related to this Korean film. I admire that Korean people can create this film to commemorate their own history, which we could not. The film is even banned in the largest movie-ranking platform, Douban. What Korean people have now is all because of their sustaining fight against dictatorship and the fight is still going on. Thinking about the Tian'anmen Square in 1989 and Hongkong in 2019, wish Chinese people luck.

However, objectively, I believe this film needs more efforts to do on the discription of female characters. There is only one main female character who severely influenced by two male characters.

This is a movie more than a movie. It's also a history, emotions and lives in Korea, 1987.

No actor(actress) has been consumed in vain in the movie.

Every moment is well directed. This is the great movie such like 'Citizen Kane' and 'Shawshank Redemption'. It's a historical movie, a humanism drama dedicated to freedom fighters all around the world.

*. 1987: The direct democracy has been declared in Korea. 2017: The corrupt government has been collapsed in Korea.

Nine stars for bloody South Koreans, salute all bravery and integrity.

Military power politics and authoritarian governments should be resolutely resisted. People need to learn from historical events rather than hide the truth. After all, the truth cannot be concealed.

Amazing film! One of the best films I have seen in a while. The film starts with a simple plot and a web of characters and a subplot develops. The direction of the camera and the pauses to show names (similar to kill bill) adds a bit of humor. The beginning of the movie has a lot of humor but slowly fades and transitions into the heart of the movie. The slower introduction of characters helps build the story. I would like to see more background on some characters as that tends to be revealed in different parts of the movie.
