And that’s a good thing. Very, very good.

Hopefully this second season will be a hit. With the changes and things, this much star power can really be of great help in making sure we’ll see a season three - and maybe even a season four!

Rookie Historian Goo Hae-Ryung (2019)

2019 Korean historical drama / movie #06

█ Rookie Historian Goo Hae-Ryung (2019 MBC)

Official English Title : Rookie Historian Goo Hae-Ryung

Korean Title : 신입사관 구해령

Period : Early 19th century (fictional Joseon)

Director : Kang Il-Soo 강일수 & Han Hyun-Hee 한현희

Writer : Kim Ho-soo 김호수

Cast : Shin Se-Kyung 신세경, Cha Eun-Woo 차은우, Lee Ji-Hoon 이지훈, Park Ki-Woong 박기웅

Genre : Historical, Romance

Air date : July 2019 (MBC Wed~Thur 9PM)

During the Joseon dynasty of Korea, there were professional historians called Sagwan (사관 史官) who seated themselves in a corner of the court all the time and recorded everything Kings did and said on a daily basis. 

Therefore, those historians were regarded as a stalker by the kings and understandably many kings hated the historians so much for invading their privacy. (LOL)

The historians’ first draft of records were called Sacho (사초 史草), and even kings were not allowed to read them in order to protect the Sacho’s political impartiality. The Sacho records were compiled as annals only after a king passed away. In such a way, the Annals of the Joseon Dynasty (조선왕조실록 朝鮮王朝實錄) comprise 1,893 volumes covering 25 kings from 1392 to 1910.

Goo Hae-Ryung 구해령 (played by Shin Se-Kyung 신세경) is a female historian being pointed at as a freak, because she tries to fight gender stereotypes as her work is often looked down on.

Yi Lim 이림 a.k.a. Grand prince Dowon 도원대군 (played by Cha Eun-Woo 차은우) is the second in line to the throne.   Even though he's never been out of the palace, and also has never been in a romantic relationship, he captivates the public with great ability of writing romance novels. His love with Gu Hae-ryung, the honest historian and legal stalker, makes him realize the heart-throbbing emotion as well as the true world outside the palace.

Crown Prince Yi Jin 이진 (played by Park Ki-Woong 박기웅) cares so much about his younger brother Yi Lim. He will be depicted as an ideal monarch of Joseon dynasty who fights against greedy nobles for the starving and sick people.  

In addition, Min Woo-Won 민우원 (played by Yi Ji-Hoon 이지훈) is Goo Hae-Ryung's senior who happens to be the son of this drama’s villain, the first vice-premier Min Ik-Pyung. 

Song Sa-Hee 송사희 (played by Park Ji-Hyun 박지현) is her colleague historian with firely ambition.

This drama is supposed to take place at the beginning of the 19th century, but I think it is entirely fictional because the royal names of the princes are not the same as the actual historical names. An alternate history, maybe?

According to news articles, it is the story of planting a valuable seed of social change, confronting the old belief about discrimination between men and women as well as between nobles and commoners. OK, It has a good intention in tune with the times of #Metoo and feminism, but the problem is... is it entertaining? 

Currently, many Sageuk drama with good and ambitious intention have flopped in TV ratings because of the lack of entertainment value. (I’m watching you, Haechi, Nokdu flower and Different dreams) I hope this drama is not only righteous but also funny and entertaining.

The Guest

Gênero: Sobrenatural/ Mistério

Ano: 2018

Número de episódios: 16

Emissora: OCN

Elenco: Kim Jae Wook, Kim Dong Wook, Jung Eun Chae e Lee Won Jong

Sinopse:

Três pessoas passaram por experiências sobrenaturais quando crianças por causa de um espírito maligno chamado Sohn/ Park Il Do e tem suas vidas interligadas. Vinte anos depois crimes estranhos começam a ocorrer, os três acabam se encontrando e juntam forças para lutar contra o espírito. Hwa Pyung é psíquico e vem de uma família de xamãs, Choi Yoon/ Mateo é um padre exorcista e Kang Young é uma detetive que não acredita nem um pouco nessa história de espíritos, demônios e afins.

Personagens:

Sohn/ Park Il Do

 É um espírito maligno superior que vêm do mar leste e controla espíritos menores permitindo que eles possuam pessoas fracas. As pessoas possuídas enlouquecem, matam suas famílias e se apunhalam nos olhos. 

Yoon Hwa Pyung

É um taxista com um passado sobrenatural, quando criança foi possuído e sua família foi destruída. Desde o acontecimento ele procura por Park Il Do, usando suas habilidades xamanísticas  para encontrar pessoas possuídas. Hwa Pyung consegue ver o que o dêmonio faz.

Choi Yoon/ Mateo

Um padre exorcista muito habilidoso e frio que assim como Hwa Pyung tem um passado sobrenatural. Quando criança seu irmão mais velho foi possuído e matou seus pais, Choi Yoon só sobreviveu porque uma policial o ajudou.

Kang Gil Young

Uma detetive que adora espancar bandidos e não acredita em coisas sobrenaturais. Ela também tem um passado sobrenatural, sua mãe faleceu quando entrou em uma casa para salvar um criança de ser morta pelo irmão.

 Opiniões/comentários:

Comecei o drama pelo padre, ou seja, Jae Wook (kkkk metade das pessoas que viram esse drama provavelmente começaram pelo mesmo motivo). Eu não esperava gostar tanto do drama, na verdade achei que ia desistir de assistir logo no primeiro episódio porque eu estava realmente com medo, inclusive vocês bebem muita água?

O drama foi surpreendente e mega tenso, extremamente bem escrito e bem desenvolvido, tem um plot perfeito, uma atuação divina que merece um Oscar e uma reviravolta sem noção que na verdade faz mais sentido que a minha vida. OCN nunca decepciona.

A descrição do Park Il Do é bem detalhada, o que fica mais fácil de acreditar, além disso os atores que fizeram os possuídos traziam grande peso a avaliação do drama, a atuação foi ótima e bem realista, a trilha sonora também contribui bastante para dar aquele clima de capirotagem hahaha. O drama trouxe o porque o dêmonio pode aparecer e o porque ele existe.

Há muitas, MUITAS MESMO, cenas pertubadoras no drama, então na maioria das vezes eu deixava só esse drama para assistir no dia, porque eu não conseguiria ver mais nada depois. Uma das cenas mais pertubadoras foi a dos espíritos seguindo a garotinha pela porta e a que ela entra no elevador e o reflexo dela no espelho só entra depois, tem também o primeiro possuído que dá um show de atuação e a “missa negra”. Esse é com certeza um dos melhores dramas do gênero Terror/suspense.

Os momentos em que o Hwa Pyung tinha as visões dele, o ator conseguia manter um olhar totalmente fora de foco. Eu ficava doida de nervoso quando o Mateo ia fazer o exorcismo e começava a dar tudo errado, o ator foi muito bom em trazer suas emoções no drama. Os episódios tem um ritmo frenético e muitas vezes te dão aquele baque psicológico.

A amizade que os três construíram foi a melhor coisa do drama todinho, ok que de vez em sempre eles ficavam se batendo e quase se matavam, mas né gente, uma amizade unida pelo capiroto é para a vida toda não é mesmo?! Eles defendiam um ao outro como a si próprio e se protegiam como se não houvesse amanhã, porque na verdade poderia não ter amanhã mesmo. Dava vontade de entrar dentro do drama pegar os três e proteger de todo capiroto que rodeia, porque olha tenso.

Eu me prendi demais aos personagens sem nem perceber, isso é o quão bom o drama é. O fim do drama foi emocionante demais e bem inteligente, você não conhece a verdade até finalizar o drama, aliás o que acontece no mar leste fica no mar leste. Inclusive a OCN quase me mata mudando a classificação indicativa no último episódio. Toda vez eu desconfiava que alguém diferente seria o Park Il Do.

Algo que queria ressaltar é, se ninguém dissesse que havia um capiroto por trás dos crimes e não houvesse o aspecto “estranheza/sobrenatural” podíamos facilmente pensar que era só um ser humano motivado pelo ódio. Analisem as situações e os crimes do drama, parecem coisas que podem ser vistas no jornal diariamente com manchetes do tipo: “Filho mata pais” ou “Marido mata a esposa”. Sinceramente isso foi o que mais me assustou, o ser humano não precisa nem mesmo estar possuído para ser totalmente cruel.

OST’s favoritas:

오존 (O3ohn) - Somewhere 손

Hajin – Somewhere (Memory Ver.)

손승연 - 나쁜 꿈

Curiosidade:

Foi dirigido por Kim Ho Sung que criou Voice, ou seja, é óbvio que seria um drama incrível e pesado. Aliás né, Jae Wook estava em Voice também.

O diretor e o ator Kim Jae wook, que faz o papel de exorcista, foram às Filipinas para encontrar um exorcista da vida real e testemunharam o ritual do padre de expulsar demônios de indivíduos. "Eu ouvi o padre dizendo que as pessoas convidavam os demônios, não os demônios que os dominavam aleatoriamente. Assistindo a esse drama, os telespectadores poderiam acabar pensando que a fonte dos crimes poderia ser o povo", disse o diretor.

Se vocês querem saber quem é o Park Il Do, o porque eu perguntei se vocês bebem muita água e se os três vão conseguir acabar com a demoniação, peguem suas bíblias e vão até o Kingdom Fansubs ou Viki.

Até a próxima <3

Richard Bach’s second public letter

Richard Bach issued a series of public letters in Korea. So far only the first letter has been translated and posted. Here is the second one which was posted in the Korean Daum cafe.

Original letter: page 1, page 2, page 3, page 4, page 5

Richard Bach’s 2nd Public Letter

What is this public letter for?

To protect the True Parents who only appear once in history, to protect our identity, and to leave behind the vertical tradition of heaven for our future Blessed Families.

I can still vividly remember what True Father told me at the Las Vegas Cheon-Hwa-Goong palace a few months before his Sunghwa (passing). “Mister Park, take good care of Mother when I go to spirit world.” I understood True Father’s words to mean that I should attend and protect True Mother.

Ever since, I have been tracking down and took legal action against those who would irresponsibly put True Mother in danger or would challenge True Parents’ authority. I did this with the heart of protecting True Mother and upholding True Parents’ authority, who are our root.

Currently in 2018 there is a person who is exposing True Mother to danger, is damaging True Parents’ value, and is challenging True Parents’ authority internally and externally. That person is Secretary General Young-Ho Yoon.

1. Reason for sending out my 2nd public letter The reason for my sending a second public letter is simple. It’s because I have seen the foundation established by True Parents—the savior, Lord of the Second Advent, messiah who is the source of true love, true life, and true lineage—crumble from the inside even before we could make Vision 2020 a reality for the restoration of sovereignty.

Circumstances worse than the selling of Jesus for 30 silver coins 2,000 years ago are taking place within the Family Federation right now. For the last 4 years I tried to quietly resolve these internal problems while protecting True Mother from forces that were expanding a culture and habits based on remnants of the “Age Before the Coming of Heaven” that should be expunged from the age of Cheon Il Guk. But despite my strong will, True Mother was put in grave danger internally and externally by the irresponsible actions of some leaders.

All the responsibility for blemishing True Mother’s authority and putting the queen’s body in danger not only in Korea, but in all mission countries, rests on Mr. Young-Ho Yoon, the vice-director of True Mother’s Secretariat and Secretary General of the Family Federation for World Peace and Unification.

Although it can’t be said that there weren’t any problems with the people closest to True Parents after the inauguration of the Holy Spirit Association for the Unification of World Christianity and inauguration of the FFWPU, at the very least when a wrongdoing of theirs was exposed they would repent as Blessed Families and at minimum they would make an effort to establish an indemnity condition.

But, for the following three reasons Mr. Young-Ho Yoon and his wife Mrs. Shin-Hye Lee are the worst couple till now: First, Yoon and Lee’s couple are not a normal Blessed Family couple. They did not follow the value of lineage and procedure. Second, rather than live for the sake of True Parents’ providence, Yoon and Lee have abused their current position and authority for the sake of their close relatives thereby violating the hearts of members worldwide.

Third, due to the above-mentioned actions of Yoon, Lee, and their relatives, the organization is incapable of maintaining check and balance within the organization.

I already explained why they are not really a Blessed Family in my first public letter, now allow me to explain on the second and third point I made.

2. Mr. Young-Ho Yoon’s expansion of a culture of nepotism The Family Federation is losing its identity due to the culture of nepotism being spread by Young-Ho Yoon. His elder brother Kwang-Ho Yoon, his wife Shin-Hye Lee, his wife’s elder sister, his wife’s father, his wife’s mother, even his colleagues from university that graduated in 1996 are creating a negative link surrounding him that does not fit with the era of Cheon Il Guk.

Except for Blessed Families who are offering pastoral services on the field, there has not been a situation within the Federation or within any providential entity in which a husband and wife work together within the same organization’s division.

But, after Young-Ho Yoon changed his job to work at the International Headquarters, his wife Shin-Hye Lee, who was in charge of financial affairs in the International Headquarters, was moved to be under direct control of the Secretary General (Young-Ho Yoon). From an internal control and law-abiding perspective, this structure has a risk of breach of trust and embezzlement, etc. I raised concerns about this several times, and each time I recommended correction, but there was no leader who would correct this responsibly.

How can there be an organization where the husband compiles the budget, approves it, then the wife executes it and undertakes the accounting? And we’re not talking about an entity where hundreds of millions come and go, but billions.

Even if they are a Blessed Family, they can be exposed to temptations of misusing public funds according to each person’s position. An organization that does not prevent this institutionally will be that much more exposed to the danger of misuse of public money.

Institutional problems created by Mr. Young-Ho Yoon as the one mentioned above lead to procedural problems. For example, Mrs. Shin-Hye Lee who was just another deputy team leader (차장), was promoted to become a team leader (부장; or head manager) by the direct authority of the Secretary General. And, Young-Ho Yoon, who should be in charge of supporting the mission field as the Secretary General of the International Headquarters, is instead borrowing funds destined for missionary work to establish a company called “(Corp.) HJ Magnolia Group” with his personal name, managing the work of that new company with additional injection of public funds, and hiring his close relatives. Another concrete example is that Shin-Hye Lee, Yoon’s wife, has employed her elder sister to position of treasurer of the church affiliated hair shop, and Yoon allowed his elder brother Kwang-Ho Yoon to deliver goods for all sorts of church events without any bidding procedure.

Even when they witness Young-Ho Yoon’s unfair actions mentioned above, employees within the Chung Pyung complex remain silent because they fear being at the receiving end of harmful personnel treatment. Due to this silence, a culture of nepotism created by Young-Ho Yoon’s abuse of authority and corruption have spread beyond the Chung Pyung complex into the Korean mission field. Due to this, the culture of heart that our elder Blessed Families cultivated centered on True Parents is degenerating into a culture of nepotism.

Although there are countless examples of such degeneration, I will mention one more.

After Young-Ho Yoon moved over to the International Headquarters, in 2015 Hwa-Bum Lee (Shin-Hye Lee’s father) used 150,000,000 KRW to buy the Hae-Bo Unification Church center located at Ham-Pyung Kun, Jeon-Nam in the name of “Hyung-Cheol Lee” (Shin-Hye Lee’s elder brother), and only 2 years later on October, 2017, sold the church center building to an outside church. (The address of the Hae-Bo church is “328 Hae-Sam Ro, Ham-Pyung Kun, Jeon-Nam”, and the content above can be verified at the real estate registry.)

How is it that Mr. Hwa-Bum Lee, an elder Blessed Family member who used to be a pastor, uses his son to purchase and register a church—a space [given] by True Parents’ dedication for members to share the culture of heart—under a third party’s name, and then goes on to sell this to an outside church? What does this mean?

For reference, nepotism in the past referred to when the Roman emperor gave positions and power to his own family members. Many Christians naturally subjugated the Roman empire giving up their lives to give testimony of Jesus who had died at the cross, but the Roman empire eventually collapsed. Although there are many reasons for this, we have to remember that one of the biggest reasons for its demise is that a culture of nepotism had spread.

3. Collapse of order due to Young-Ho Yoon Currently in 2018, checks and balances in the Family Federation have completely collapsed. I wouldn’t say that main leaders in the past (Chung-Hwan Kwak vs. Sun-Jo Hwang) had competition in good faith, but they generated a type of tension and a proper check and balance was maintained. And other heads of businesses and providential organizations also fulfilled their respective responsibilities based on True Parents’ direct guidance.

However, currently Young-Ho Yoon and Shin-Hye Lee’s couple are misusing the position of vice-director of True Mother’s Secretariat at the Cheon Jeong Gung palace, involving themselves in personnel matters and overstepping their authority, not only at the Federation level but in all providential organizations and businesses. Through unprincipled personnel changes he has given important positions at the International Headquarters to his university colleagues, people who know his past corruption, or to those who aided and abetted him.

The acts of overstepping their authority or the misuse of public funds by Young-Ho Yoon and Shin-Hye Lee not only violate heavenly law, but it could possibly violate Korean law. That’s why I pointed this out numerous times. Some might say that sometimes it is hard to follow the laws of the world when doing the work of heaven. Perhaps one can say that if it is for the providence, but I am not sure how related to heaven’s providence it is to concurrently be holding the position of president of (Corp.) HJ Magnolia Group without distinguishing public and private, to immorally overextend one’s power over members/employees, to hire one’s relatives as they would in the outside world, and to give work/contracts to relatives.

The last few years, Korea has seen parliamentarians hiring the relatives of their aides, the abuse of power case with Korean Air, abuse of power with Asiana Airlines, etc. Following the public opinion on these issues the Korean government is punishing those who commit such improper acts, and this tendency seems to be growing.

Young-Ho Yoon and Shin-Hye Lee are promoting a culture of nepotism. Considering the fact that it is known that the Family Federation is being intently watched by various government entities, I warned True Mother’s Secretariat that if the illegal or unfair practices of Young-Ho Yoon and Shin-Hye Lee’s family members is recognized by these government agencies the legal responsibility would fall upon the involved individuals and in the worst case upon the Family Federation.

If the internal checks and balances within the Family Federation disappear and if the self-purification function does not work, then a shock will arrive from the outside. If we don’t make the effort to self-purify, the Family Federation starting with the Cheon Jeong Gung palace may be held responsible by auditing agencies of the Korean government for several types of illegal acts. And the main leaders related to this will not be able to escape from legal responsibility. I was worried about this and warned the relevant people in charge many times.

This was for their sake, but it was also in order to not bring any trouble to the True Mother they are attending. However, only because of the reason that they hold a higher position, they did not want to hear any problems or warnings about an issue that wasn’t in their area of expertise. They did not properly report such a serious matter to True Mother and ignored it.

4. Conclusion Everything has to return to normal.

The International Headquarters has to be led by a person competent in missionary and pastoral work. True Mother’s Secretariat should only fulfill its role and function as a Secretariat, and should not exert its power as if it were in the same position as True Mother. Nepotism, and checks and balances, these are things that not only Young-Ho Yoon, but all leaders should be careful of. And this obviously applies to me too.

To conclude, I am not sending this public letter as an expression of conflict between first and second generation. In other words, I am not saying that because I’m a second generation and Young-Ho Yoon is a first generation member he can’t do it and some other second generation should do it. This is not what I’m saying. I believe that if a second generation commits the same mistake as a first generation, they should be judged more harshly for being second generation. That is because the value of the existence of the second generation comes from fulfilling the role of a bridge to pass on the foundation the first generation parents created with their blood, sweat and tears, to the next generation.

I am worried that the tradition established by our elder Blessed Families who only looked towards True Parents and the precious values shown to the world through the Family Federation will lose their light if Young-Ho Yoon, who is not a Blessed Family member, spreads a culture of nepotism that extinguishes the culture of heart, tears down the order within the organization, and leaves his proper position exerting abnormal authority due to his excessive greed.

After sending in my first public letter I will not submit to any threat or pressure. I will go to the very end to fulfill the words that True Father gave me.

Thank you.

Train with some of the best Korean Martial Arts Grand Masters in Korea 2020

LifeCraft Asia is pleased to report on a most successful training holiday to the home of Authentic Korean Martial Arts Traiining (AKMA), the Republic of Korea (ROK), during the period Friday 22th to 31th March 2019. This is our second time at organizing such an event, following in the footsteps of Grand Master (GM) JS LIM. GM LIM has used his extensive network of blue chip contacts within the KMA community in Seoul and Busan that he has painstakingly built up over his 50 plus years in the Korean Martial Arts.

Before we go any further, we would like to give special thanks to GM HWANG, Young-Jin, the new President of the Korea KiDo Association and KukMuWon , for all his kind help and support in ensuring that this event ran smoothly despite several last minute hiccups.

(AKMA 2019) AUTHENTIC KOREAN MARTIAL ARTS TRAINING event was special in many ways; one of which was the sanctioning of the event by the newly formed and government recognized World Cultural Exchange Foundation (WCEF). Again, we were also invited to the inauguration dinner of the also newly formed KukMuWon or National Martial Arts Center, which is similar in mission to the DaeHan Kido Hwe, but meant to cater to the newer generation of martial artists and upcoming Masters, especially those from outside the ROK.

Due the lobbying efforts of GM Lim and the proven successful performance of LifeCraft Asia, we were able to get the formal consent of several top GMs and their Associations also be appointed to promote them globally. This was witnessed via the signing of several MOUs, itself a historical first! These MOUs complement, do not overlap nor infringe in any way to any of the existing global MOUs that GM LIM has with most of the key Associations.

Testimonial from participants (AKMA 2019) Seoul -ROK .

The various Grandmaters and Associations that participated in our Authentic KMA Tour in the order of appearance:

1.      Grandmaster KIM, Woo-Min, 8 Dan HapKiDo (HKD), KukMuWon.

4.      President OH Pyung-Won and Master HONG Jeong-Po Chief Trainer, Korea World Tukkong Association (ROK Army SF CQC).

5.      Grandmaster JU Ung-Seo, 8th Dan KHF and Master Baptise of the World EulJiKwan HapKiDo.

Special mention must be given to the following that we met and/or communicated personally with:

1.      Grandmaster KIM, Nam-Jai, Korea HKD Union and HKD KyungMooKwan.

2.      Grandmaster HWANG In-Sik, Poomse Technical Director, KukKiWon WTA.

3.      Senior Grandmaster PARK Hae-Man Head of TKD ChungDoKwan and GM IM, GM of TKD CDK.

Moving forward, we are pleased to announce that we are taking Registrations of Interests for our (AKMA 2020) training tour, which is tentative to be held from 20th - 29th MARCH 2020. Training modules will be similar in nature but not necessary identical to our 2019 Tour.

  Sim Deok-soo est un propriétaire grincheux qui gère un complexe d’appartements délabré. Soudain, ses locataires commencent à disparaître dans des circonstances suspectes. Un ancien détective retraité se présente, affirmant qu’un meurtrier en série de 30 ans est de retour.

    Origine du film : Corée du Sud Réalisateur : Kim Hong-seon Scénariste : Yoo Kap-jeol Acteurs : Baek Yoon-sik, Sung Dong-il, Chun Ho-jin, Bae Jong-ok, Jo Dal-hwan, Kim Hye-in, Park Hyoung-soo, Son Jong-hak, Lee Kan-hee, Park Ji-hyun, Jo Hyun-sik Genre : Policier, Thriller Durée : 110 minutes Date de sortie : 29 novembre 2017 (Corée) Année de production : 2017 Sociétés de production : AD406 Distribué par : Next Entertainment World Titre original : Ban-deu-si Jab-neun-da / 반드시 잡는다 Notre note : ★★★★☆

    “Ban-deu-si Jab-neun-da” (반드시 잡는다), ou “The Chase” pour la distribution internationale, est un thriller policier sud-coréen datant de Kim Hong-seon. Les acteurs principaux sont Baek Yoon-sik, qu’on a pu voir dans “The Last Princess” (2016), Sung Dong-il, qu’on a pu voir dans “The Accidental Detective 2: In Action” (2018), Chun Ho-jin, qu’on a pu voir dans “Lucid Dream” (2017), et Kim Hye-in, qu’on a pu voir dans “The Throne” (2015).

L’histoire proposée par “The Chase” nous invite à suivre Shim Deok-su (Baek Yoon-sik), un propriétaire d’un ensemble d’appartements qui officie également comme serrurier. L’homme est retraité, grincheux, acariâtre et très près de son argent, n’hésitant pas à interpeller vigoureusement ses locataires dès qu’ils sont en retard dans le paiement des loyers ou lorsqu’ils sont trop bruyants. Une série de décès va frapper plusieurs personnes âgées dans l’environnement de Deok-su et ceux-ci vont tout d’abord apparaître comme des morts naturelles avant qu’on ne se rende compte qu’il s’agit de meurtre. Deok-su va s’associer à Park Pyung-dal (Sung Dong-il), un ancien inspecteur de la police désormais à la retraite, afin d’enquêter sur ces assassinats et sur la disparition d’une des jeunes locataires de son immeuble…

La trame de fond suggérée par “The Chase” est intéressante et tourne autour de l’âge. Une série de meurtres est produite, reprenant la méthodologie d’une suite de crimes ayant eu lieu 30 ans auparavant. Est-ce un copycat ou est-ce le même tueur que jadis qui revient faire parler de lui. C’est à travers le développement, non sans une très bonne atmosphère de suspicion et de tension que les choses vont se dévoiler. Les deux personnes qui enquêtent afin d’élucider ces meurtres et surtout, afin de retrouver Kim Ji-eun (Kim Hye-in), qui a été, selon toute vraisemblance kidnappée, sont également des personnes âgées. Des retraités ayant dépassé les 60 ans. Afin d’apporter une touche de confusion à l’intrigue, Yoo Kap-jeol, le scénariste, positionne le personnage incarné par Sung Dong-il de manière à ce que l’on doute de ses dires, et même, de son intégrité mentale.

La photographie, délivrée par Jo Young-Chun, est particulièrement soignée. La majorité des scènes se déroulent dans des quartiers modestes. La séquence finale est assez longue, comme souvent dans le cinéma coréen. Elle se déroule en deux parties, dans une cave, puis sur un chantier. Les cinéastes jouent énormément avec la lumière, utilisant l’obscurité de la nuit en y ajoutant la pluie, afin d’ajouter un sentiment de noirceur aux événements. La bande sonore joue un rôle très important dans la mise en place de la tension, de l’atmosphère. Les personnages étant réceptifs aux moindres sons, principalement lorsqu’ils progressent en terrain inconnu, toujours à la recherche d’indice et/ou de la disparue.

Bien que les éléments de productions soient impeccables, et que le scénario nous tienne en haleine durant l’intégralité des 110 minutes que dure le film, c’est le duo d’acteurs principaux qui porte le métrage sur leurs épaules. Baek Yoon-sik et Sung Dong-il sont absolument magnifiques dans leur rôle respectif, s’appuyant sur des dialogues croustillants, n’arrêtant pas de s’envoyer des amabilités à la figure. Le premier offre un personnage grincheux, une sorte d’ours mal léché à la limite de l’insociable. Le second offre un ancien inspecteur de police expérimenté, mais dont les problèmes de santé mettent en doute la véracité de ses propos. Kim Hye-in dispose d’un rôle secondaire. Le personnage de la victime, mais apportant beaucoup de charme et de malice dans ses interventions. Chun Ho-jin est l’un des antagonistes de l’histoire, proposant un personnage terriblement crédible d’innocence.

En conclusion, “The Chase” est un très bon thriller disposant d’une histoire sympathique, d’une intrigue efficace et d’un développement soigné et très bien orchestré. Le rythme est en adéquation avec l’histoire, le récit est fluide et la narration est linéaire en dehors de quelques flashbacks rapides. La photographie est très soignée, avec un final dans une atmosphère familière sous la pluie. La bande son, ainsi que la bande originale sont très bien construites, participant grandement à l’ambiance et à la mise en place de la tension. Les scènes d’action sont très réalistes. La distribution offre de très bonnes prestations avec un super duo d’acteurs principaux au service de dialogues cocasses et drôles. L’ensemble est une agréable surprise et peut être considéré comme un très bon divertissement.
