      As someone unhoused, I remember being worried about where that narrative thread would go, and being relieved that the writers chose to send that particular message with it. Many of us out here in the street community invest more effort in looking out for and looking after others (including housed people who'll never know about our actions) than most people generally recognize.

    I’d like to point something out - Gong Yoo talks to the daughter in informal Korean, whereas the daughter speaks very formally to her dad. Normally kids talk to their parents more casually and talk to their elders (like grandparents or older generations in general or strangers) formally. Usually if kids talk to their parents formally (especially at a young age), it can mean that they aren’t close and most likely have a dysfunctional or cold family dynamic.

    • @dongjigeum5051
      @dongjigeum5051 Před 2 lety +62

      spot on. i would like to add that speech formality also heavily depends on each individual (particularly set by the older person; parent). although it's more common to see family members speaking in ban-mal nowadays, some still don't due to the parents' preference. the family in itself might be very very loving with a great dynamic, too but still carry a sense of formality in their conversations. applies to brothers and sisters, as well.

      Still, everyone reacts to that scene the same way - 'Huh? Why?', so I think they could have done a better job fleshing that scene out. Including explaining better her sister's motivation for opening the door. Just one or two more lines of dialogue from her would have made a difference.

    Well technically Gong Yoo's character (the dad and main character of the film) didn't work FOR the bitoech company that had a leak that caused everything but his company did invest in the biotech company so basically his company funded the research and production of the chemicals and stuff that caused it so he was involved in it just not like super directly. Also, homeless people sneak on trains all the time lol usually they're escorted out on the next stop if they don't have tickets and since he's on the streets he probably saw the first glimpses of the apocalypse forming and ran into the train for safety hence why he would be hiding in the bathroom having a mental breakdown in the beginning.

      The homeless man is an underrated character. He is selfless, and in this reaction, I noticed an additional act that he did to save whatever crew he was with. Here are all the things he did right. The first time we met him, he tried to warn everyone that something was wrong with the dead. He saved the lead from getting bitten by covering the zombie with a coat. He stopped the pregnant lady from using her cell phone because of the broken glass door where the zombies were on the other side. This was the additional scene that the homeless man did before he made the ultimate sacrifice for them under the train wreckage. He was a well-written character. He was looked down upon because of his status, and I have seen many reactors blame him for stepping on the soda can that he did not notice. He was a three-dimensional character. Since "Train to Busan" is also about class, he was the lowest on the totem pole but a genuine character at the highest point of that pole.

    @solonec.4285 Před rokem +27

    I'm glad you mentioned the homeless man and a your uncertainty of his role/purpose. The homeless man represents a person who has been rejected by society and often treated like they are invisible. In fact, Yon-suk (the business executive) found the homeless man's presence so detestable that he shifts the staffs' attention to him thus taking attention away from the other stowaway who was the true danger. When the train makes its first stop, the homeless man follows the main character Seok-wu because he overheard the phone conversation which shouldn't matter, but Seok-wu find him so detestable, he tells him to go the other way.
    To mirror the sentiment of being an "invisible" person, the homeless man is purposely never named in the film. It was important to for the homeless man to have enough of a presence that the movie can show that these invisible "undesirable" people have real value and can even be heroic but at the same time not give him too much of a presence which would compromise his role as an invisible person.
    I believe there's a moment when he trips and another moment when he steps on a can. I think these moments are to highlight that this person is functioning at a sub-optimal level: he's likely extremely malnourished and quite possibly suffers from mental illness as well. This makes it easy for the audience to dismiss him or even question the other characters for helping him stay alive and thinking of him as a liability. Remember though that the homeless man actually saves Seok-wu in one scene when he puts a jacket over the head of an attacking zombie and towards the end, he even sacrifices himself, allowing the daughter and pregnant woman to survive. This is to reinforce the idea that even someone we dismiss or think of as a liability actually has value.
    The homeless man saying something on the lines of "they're all dead" is a reference to Cassandra in Greek mythology who has prophetic abilities but no one believes her. In the same way, no one is interested in listening to what he has to say when ironically, by listening to him they might have been able to prevent avoided much tragedy.

From Korea, the US did remakes of korean films: Oldboy (psychological thriller and drama) which was kinda meh even though it starred Josh Brolin and My Sassy Girl (comedy film) which was okay, i heard. There is also a remake of a korean drama (series) The Good Doctor (a medical drama) that was pretty popular but nobody really knew it was a remake.
      I'm reserving full judgment until i see a trailer or something. If its a shot for shot remake of train to busan, people who have seen train to busan may not like it as much. But maybe people who didnt watch train to busan will enjoy it, who knows?

    I have learned that when watching movies like these you gotta automatically assume that the concept of a zombie infection doesn’t exist nor how they can safe themselves. This movie is a commentary on koreas hyper fixation with social status which is why everyone was listening to the antagonist, both the antagonist and protagonist started the same way but completely branched out in different directions. Interestingly enough, during the holocaust, survivors that stuck together and helped each other survive for much longer than those that were alone. Of course, a lot of people died but still many were saved.

    I love this film.. This was very popular in Asia when it came out. GongYoo is a big star. But seeing western reaction makes me realize our cultural differences. You see in Asia we don't act immediately when we see or heard something. Like, if I see that girl walking and panting like that, what can I do? I don't know 😅 what if she's just drunk? So it doesn't mean that people didn't noticed they're just minding their own business, this is still very accurate for me, I can relate 😁 Plus, in my country there's no emergency number like 911 in South Korea they do, I think it's 119 and 118. And yes we do like boiled eggs when travelling I didn't know it smells, maybe we're just used to it or something, it's being sold inside the buses too 😂. I'm talking about Asia not just specific countries because some of us do have similarities.

They could be aware of the situation but they’re just minding their own business as to not start drama.

    For awhile at first it made no sense to me why the older woman stayed behind to get killed, but now I realize, she is older and gone through so much shit already. Earlier in the movie the girl gave her her seat, saying her grandmother’s knees are always hurting. Perhaps it was just too much and she didn’t have the physical strength to make it forward in that moment.
    The girl feels it is her fault for wanting to go to Busan, but this outbreak was happening regardless. They barely were leaving when she saw an attack outside the train. The grandmother turned while on the phone. If they hadn’t gone, they would have both died.
    And oh my gosh, the ending… reminds me of Night of the Living dead. Spoiler……… Ben survives through all that shit, just to end up getting shot being assumed to be another zombie.
    Also realizing at the end that her song was the song in Lilo & Stitch, Nani sings to Lilo before she’s going to be taken away. In the Halloween episode of the series, Lilo says she sings that song when she is afraid and it makes her feel better.

    A lot of people miss this but the lady (In-gil) who was shaking her head "no" didn't think her sister (Jong-gil) survived, last she saw- she was being dragged away from her and her sister was on the ground with zombies approaching. So she was shaking her head no because she didn't want to live without her and when she saw her sister did survive and was in the next "car," it was too late. While she may also have been trying to slow the zombies down like other comments suggested, I think its more likely the prior - or seeing her sister changes her mind as she immediately moves towards the train car when she sees her sister.
