A Taxi Driver

If you've watched this movie you would hate the taxi driver in the first half of the movie. I hated his cowardice seriously. How could someone not feel angry about an issue pertaining to the society where injustice dominates. But later on, you'll realize that Kim Man Sup, the taxi driver embodies us, individuals. Whatever race we're from, we have an innate characteristic such as consciousness. Unless we have the consciousness of the person's situation, we cannot relate to them. We may lack empathy at first but that's because we're clueless about the feeling. The only way to understand is to listen to them and be with them. This also applies in personal situations.

I thought I wouldn't feel the satisfaction in this movie, and I thought wrongly. I was utterly satisfied by it. The storyline was on point. The sequencing of events was chef's kiss. And the acting of the taxi driver was great. My only concern was the one who played Peter.

Before I come to conclusion, I've got to say the nerve Man Sup had to pull away from his comfortable life was sympathetic. He had the choice to stay there and not come back. He had the choice to live a comfortable life but he chose compassion over comfort. Man Sup was disturbed by living with ease while the others were fighting for their life. Goo Jae Shik's death, on the other hand, was the turning point for Man Sup. He was already having second thoughts at that time, and when he finally saw the body, he felt more secured to go full-on in this war against those in authority.

The reporter in the film was risking everything he has, for the news to be delivered to the international media, despite it not being his own country. I don't despise the local reporters though, they did their best but it was meant for Peter and Man Sup to finish the mission. Their strong friendship made it easier for them to trust each other.

Another part I've noticed was when the soldier saw the plate number but still let them pass. That soldier knew his service, for the people not against them.
