Witness Review: Jung Woo-Sung's Authenticity and Looking Beyond Bias
🎬 My Crush on Jung Woo-sung
Starring Jung Woo SungI was intrigued from the beginning. This is because I personally like Mr. Jung Woo-sung.
I've never been a huge fan of any particular idol or celebrity, but Jung Woo-sung is different.
I've always liked the seriousness and tension you show on screen.
Sometimes it's a little disappointing when he's the bad guy...lol.
This Movie WitnessesIt was nice to see him come across as an honest and upstanding character.
To me, Yang Sun-ho is a type AB character, and Ji-woo, the girl on the autism spectrum, is a type A character.
Their chemistry was a major point of the movie.

🕵️ plot
In a village, a mysterious incident occurs in a house. The body of an old man is found wrapped in an envelope...
There was a witness to this horrific commotion who watched from afar: a girl on the autism spectrum who lived in the house directly across the street.
Clearis not considered intelligent, but rather sensitive to hearing and socially awkward, until she witnesses the death of an old man through the window of her home.
The suspect is a housekeeper, who claims to have tried to help the old man as he tried to kill himself. But Jiu's eyewitness account says it was an attack. He takes the case to a lawyer Soonho Yang (Uncle Jung)will take over.
💡 What I learned
The lure of power and compromise
Movies have a The contradictions of the world과 Power in the hierarchy, and Misbehaviorwill occasionally appear.
If you're a ruling class, you're probably familiar with the Byungwoo Lee, a law firm principalfor example.
Lee Byung Woo invites Soon Ho out for drinks and forces him to enjoy the company of the ladies (?),
In exchange, he offers to take on a big case.
I liked Jung Woo-sung's performance in the scene.
A subtle act of regret after a night of drinking.
As a person who lives a good life, I was really impressed.
If I had gotten a little carried away and gone down a bad path, I would have felt bad.
A letter from my father
Speaking of regret, Yang's father is also a big figure.
A father tells his son Lettersfor the name.
“When I was a kid, I was so excited when you told me you were going to be a lawyer.
Not because I wanted to be a lawyer, but because I thought you were a really good kid.
And we're all human and can make mistakes.
Love yourself, so you can love others.”
The moment I read this letter, I felt my heart sink.
How did a stay-at-home dad know what was going on with his son based on mood? I thought he was amazing.
About bias
One of the important keywords in the movie is ‘prejudice’is.
To be honest, I didn't have a lot of prejudice against disability as an adult. I've always taken it for granted.
People on the autism spectrum are often labeled as lacking in intelligence, but in fact It's just that they're so good at what they do that they're relatively hard to communicate with.. For example, that you're fast at math, or that your observations are as precise as a computer's.
If you had the intelligence of a computer, wouldn't you find slow conversations frustrating? From Jiu's perspective In fact, it might even be considered weird by the average person.
Even a friend who was close to me, a friend whose job was supposed to be unbiased, said that Stigmatizing people on the autism spectrumin the past. It's not that I don't understand.
Because some people don't like new, different things.
But don't you ever want to leave that fence? For the rest of your life?
Now, the Human lifespan with future technologiesThere will come a time when 100 years will be the default, 500 years, 1000 years, etc.
How many of us live on the fence for that long?
I ponder. Is this wrong, or is it just different.
I'm not sure yet, but my path is to experience the world outside the fence.
This is why the How to make the world warmer and brighter. I can't judge right or wrong.
📽️ Finalize
Movies Witnesses, It's a PG-13 movie, so I'd definitely recommend checking it out.
