What is the best Korean literary film in your heart? Why?

If you want to talk about your favorite Korean literary film, you should naturally go to Li Cangdong, a poet and director.

Li Cangdong has made many classic literary films, the latest of which is Burning, which shines brilliantly in Cannes.

Li Cangdong's other masterpieces include Oasis, Poetry, Our World, Mint, Yang Mi, Knife Xi, Green Fish and so on. Director Li is particularly good at talking about the joys and sorrows of marginal figures, and his personal favorite is the movie Oasis.

Oasis represents hope, but in the hero and heroine of the film, oasis only exists in imagination.

Xue Jingqiu plays a man who takes the fall for his brother who had a car accident. After he got out of prison, he became a marginal figure in society.

While visiting the families of the car accident victims, he met the daughter of the deceased with severe cerebral palsy.

A marginalized person, a disabled person, somehow developed feelings. Two lonely people can't integrate into society, but rely on specious love to keep each other warm.

Xue Jingqiu and Wen Suli's performance in the film can be called disfigurement acting. Xue Jingqiu, as one of the "Zhong Wudao Troika", needless to say, the heroine Wen Suli is twisting her limbs and facial features in the whole film. Only in some imaginary scenes can we see her beautiful face. It's not easy to sacrifice so much for filming.

In fact, Xue Jingqiu and Wen Suli collaborated as early as 1999, when they starred in Li Cangdong's Mint.

It has always been said that Korean films crush domestic films, mainly Korean commercial films. In the field of art films, South Korea is still worse than China. But in recent years, more and more films directed by South Korea have appeared in the three major film festivals in Europe. I wonder if domestic filmmakers will feel flustered?
