Mother’s or murderer’s love?
Every mother gives a huge love to their children. Especially, Korean mother has a special love. Children are their everything and dream. Because of this, sometimes the Korean mother shows so dangerous love. We can see this love through the film that will be mentioned.
This movie handles a murder case. Also the mother tries to protect her son who mentally retarded man and was accused of murder. The mother believes that her son always nice although her son is not normal. So she does not think that her son is a criminal but think her son is accused wrongly of murder. Thus, her mother tries to solve the problem instead of polices. However, as time goes by, she is able to know that her son is a real criminal by a witness. Eventually, she kills the witness to save her son. To protect her son, mother also becomes a murderer like her son. After that, polices suddenly notice that they found real criminal. However, it is not true but just it was polices’ mistakes. Anyway, she goes to meet him who is wrongly accused of murder instead of her son. The man also is not normal like her son, and he does not have mother. After the mother meets him, she cries because she thinks that if the man has a mother, the man will not be wrongly accused of murder like her son. However mother does not tell the true that her son is a real criminal even though she knows everything for just his son.
Mother is called as ‘umma’ in Korea. However, the movie director chooses the title as a mother not ‘umma’. Why? You can see the similar pronunciation of mother and murderer. The director wants teach that most mothers can be a murderer because of her love toward us. This love is not good, but we are able to see that mother's love is so strong. After I watched this film, I thought that it is too uncomfortable film at first. However, as time goes by I also can understand mother’s strong and strange behavior.
