But for the first time Mido is seen in a contrasting, strong red clothing/hat which I think suggests, whether he remembers or not what woo jin made him believe (and no matter what the truth is) he still loves her as a lover, as a partner not as a father. Or something terrible will happen. Has the second box with the photo album deceived Oh Dae Su already? in the end is it the monster or oh dae su. 3) Other important characters don’t make it into the movie at all. This is a typical act between a father and daughter. Which does indeed makes me think he’s ‘The Monster’, ‘The Beast’. He never would have knowingly done such a thing. Tsukamoto keeps his old pal’s feet on the ground; he arranges a meeting with Goto’s estranged fianc?e, so the pair can have some closure, and since Goto doesn’t have a permanent address, Tsukamoto is happy to let him crash at the bar, in exchange for some occasional bartending and cleaning up. 7) The protagonists’ motivations don’t match up. That’s what “Oh Dae-Su” means. Of course, Woo Jin himself faced a very traumatic moment in his life, holding and letting his sister/lovers life slip through his fingers and watching her die. I’m interested in how you came to that conclusion. Again, Park can’t find a spot for her in the film. I think Oh Dae-Su molested his daughter and his wife found out. ( Log Out / Thanks for sharing! Afterwards the man, empathising with Oh Dae-Su’s story, nods slowly and says ‘I see”, he then wants to tell O Dae-Su his own story, but Oh Dae quickly storms off and when he reaches the street the man crashes from the sky into a car. I just watched the film and read the analysis above. He’s an amusing little side character, kind of an otaku type, and there’s no analogue for him in Park’s film. Old Boy (オールド・ボーイ, Ōrudo Bōi) is a Japanese manga series written by Garon Tsuchiya and illustrated by Nobuaki Minegishi. Eventually Lee Woo-jin reveals this secret to Oh Dae-Su. [6] In 2005, Dark Horse Comics bought the rights to make an English translation of the book for its customers worldwide. I just thought this was an interesting connection. Overall an interesting interpretation, with a few stretches and misunderstandings of Korean culture throughout, but for the most part I agree. Stack Exchange network consists of 176 Q&A communities including Stack Overflow, the largest, most trusted online community for developers to learn, share their knowledge, and build their careers. He takes away his life because he would not find any more pleasure out of his revenge even though he wants Oh Dae to suffer more for his sister death or may his own after he dies and the hypnotist helps him out. I recently watched the original 2003 release of "Oldboy" . Just my thought on the end - Maybe because in the ending he had found peace once he had relieved himself of his own monster? Everything that happened between Oh and Mido were a result of hypnosis. Thanks! Korea is making some amazing films right now. New comments cannot be posted and votes cannot be cast, Press J to jump to the feed. Obviously, it can go both ways. Bullshit…dont try to read way too much into things. Lee Woo-jin holds Oh Dae-Su personally responsible for the death of his sister and lover, as, if Oh Dae-Su had held his tongue about what he saw Lee Woo-jin believes his sister would not have ended up dead. I really hope someone can shed some light on me for this but I notice when Dae Su checks out that hair salon to learn more about Woo-Jin’s sister, there’s a couple of close ups of the woman-on-the-phone’s knees and of the one who walks in through the door. It puzzles me because I don’t see a connection but Dae Su is currently taking notice of something. No incredibly, almost hilariously epic hammer fight. A true piece of art! Each man is in excellent physical condition on release, but Oh is noticeably older and more worn. His counterpart Oh Dae-su comes out worse for wear – he seems a bit older when he’s pulled off the streets and jailed, and is locked up with the tiny TV for fifteen years to boot. Or was that just a fabrication created by Woo-jin? That is why he could kill himself, but why he actually did it was to find peace. He’s permanently disfigured, and tormented. This is the reason Oh Dae su was kidnapped. the last part i agree with you bro. In the manga, Goto is similarly taken in by a pretty young bar hostess named Eri, but there’s no prior relationship. I’m sure that like 5 or 10 of you have recommended this movie over the past couple years. Oldboy was awesome. You can unsubscribe at any time. When either of these things are dropped into water they both end up sinking to the same place, the bottom, and in this case the bottom was the death of Lee Woo-jins sister. Our analogue to Mr. Han, on the right, is never actually named in the manga. Hm. Not being a very helpful member of society. The Antagonist obviously was not a normal person, and he did not lead a normal life as is evident from the incestuous relationship he had with his sister. This man had a love affair with his sister at a young age, Oh Dae-Su finds out about it and spreads the word to everyone in school, which leads to Lee Woo-jin’s sister and lover committing suicide. The fact that he smiled at the end meant he still knew. Not sure why anyone would need to contact the Korean Embassy to call someone out of country. does that mean oh dae su is still the monster? i really need to ask u some questions. He forms a grin that would lead one to believe the hypnotism worked and he is now blissfully ignorant, but it then twists into a pained grimace which suggests otherwise. I’m usually good at hitting metaphors, and picking up underlying tones, and not for one second did I even think about a psychological thriller interpretation. Even though i’ve watched this movie about a dozen times this possibility never occurred to me! Oh Dae got shit on from beginning to end – all because he was obnoxious and “talked too much”. However, the studio that produced "Zinda" went out of business, and thus no legal action was taken. It lived up to the hype. Oh will be happy with Mido but the burden of knowledge is carried alone. Revenge was the only thing he was after. Lee Woo-Jin’s sister is the personification of Oh Dae-Su’s daughter. Hallo! Does he remember or does he not? I think I know why he gave the girl the diamonds at the end… In the scene where “Woo-Jin” is accosting his “sister” in the classroom, she picks up a mirror and looks into it. Just to input, the name Mido means lost in the wrong road/end. ©2019 Voice Media Group Inc. All rights reserved. In shutter island he is left between making lobotomy willingly knowing his awfull past, or lobotoming him against his will, but with him believing he was a good man. This verse was chosen specifically just as the rest of the chapter is deliberately left unmentioned. The three films are not directly related, but are connected by similar visual styles and themes of revenge and retribution. After his release, Gotō must find his captors and discover the reason for his confinement. Contrast with the death of Oh’s buddy at the Internet caf?. Why does the antagonist "Puppet Master" kill himself in the elevator? I thought he cut out his tongue because it was what he had used on his daughter. Can someone please explain the ending of oldboy (2013 remake)? But since in the last scene the hypnotist says that there isn’t much reason for her to help him so I think it was Oh Dae who had asked her for the meeting but nevertheless the hypnotist could have made her presence felt in a way that Oh Dae reached out to her.
