[vitos-ordination-song]

Watching Welcome to Dongmakgol. It’s been on my list for years now, I forgot where I even heard about it and forgot what it was about. It’s kinda a simplistic/sentimental/nostalgia bait premise… but it works on me

CHA EUNWOO tem uma nova visão em atuar em ação com “Island”

Desde que lançou a carreira dele no entretenimento com o pequeno papel em um drama filme “My Brilliant Life”, cantor e ator CHA EUNWOO tem construído o portfólio de atuação dele estrelando em diferentes gêneros de filmes e séries das comédias românticas a ação.

No último projeto de atuação dele, a série original Tving “Island”, o ator pegou o desafio de enfrentar a primeira fantasia dele, uma peça de ação.

A série baseada no webtoon de mesmo nome, segue a sinistra jornada de três personagens principais – um meio humano, meio imortal Van (Kim Namgil), uma rica herdeira Won MiHo (Lee DaHee), e um padre exorcista (CHA EUNWOO).

Os três se juntam para revelar um segredo obscuro que está escondido na ilha de Jeju e lutar contra o poder sobrenatural para pará-lo de destruir o mundo.

A primeira parte da série acabou no último mês, e a parte 02 será lançada na sexta (24/02). Foi dirigida pelo diretor Bae Jong, que em seus trabalhos anteriores incluí o filme de grande sucesso “Welcome to Dongmakgol”.

CHA interpreta um padre que foi adotado no exterior, mas foi para Jeju para performar um exorcismo. O ator disse que ele se sentiu atraído pelo personagem por ele se desviar da imagem de padre estereotipado.

“O que me deixou atraído pelo Yohan é que ele é um padre que não é como um padre. Ele é geralmente muito brincalhão, mas quando ele está fazendo o exorcismo ou atuando o poder de Deus, ele mostra o lado poderoso dele, que também é interessante. Porque esse personagem tem muitas camadas que eu queria expressar pela atuação, eu fui atraído para pegar o papel”, ele disse durante uma entrevista com The Korea Times, que ocorreu em um café no distrito de Gangnam, na terça.

Ele adicionou que ele se preparou muito para o papel e a sequência de ação da série, mas ele sentiu o crescimento como um ator.

“Como eu nunca tinha interpretado um personagem assim antes, eu precisei me preparar muito. Eu tive que aprender latim e italiano, aprender a atitude de um padre e a sequência de ações para executar um exorcismo”, ele disse. “Mas pelo processo, eu fui capaz de aprender e ganhar algum know-how dessa experiência. Isso também me encorajou a ser mais ambicioso sobre a minha carreira de ator. A série me ensinou muito”.

CHA compartilhou que uma das maiores razões que ele entrou como parte da série foi por causa dos co-stars, Kim e Lee.

“Eu vi isso como uma oportunidade para eu trabalhar com Kim e Lee, e aprender com isso”, ele disse, adicionando que ele aprendeu como abordar a atuação com eles. “Kim brincava e era engraçado nos bastidores, mas durante os ensaios ou quando nós estávamos gravando, ele inteiramente entrava no personagem dele. E Lee sempre permanecia na personagem dela, MiHo. E ver os estilos de atuação deles e como eles eram o set, tiveram efeito em mim”, ele disse.

O ator disse que a primeira experiência dele em algo sombrio, do gênero fantasia e ação o ajudou a ser mais aberto para diferentes gêneros.

“(A experiência dessa série) me permitiu quebrar os meus medos de gêneros. Claro, todo trabalho e personagem é único, e eu precisaria de diferentes coisas para cada personagem, mas dessa experiência, eu espero me desafiar em outro projeto de ação”.

Welcome to Dongmakgol // 웰콤 투 동막골 (2005) Directed by Park Kwang-hyun//박광현

1950, in the midst of the fiercest war...There was the most glorious moment!

November 1950, when the Korean War was in full swing... Dongmakgol is a village located in the cliffs of Hambaeksan Mountain along the Taebaek Mountain Range. A P-47d U.S. fighter jet that crashed here. Inside the crashed fighter was Smith, a bizarre soldier. Yeo Il, who lives in Dongmakgol, was on her way to witness the scene and deliver the news, when she ran into soldiers of the People's Army, lead by Li Su-hwa, and brought them to Dongmakgol. Just then, Pyo Sang-cheol and Moon Sang-sang, of the South Korean military, who got lost from their unit, happen to visit the house of the Chief of Dongmakgol. There the People's Army, and the Allied forces gather in Dongmakgol where tensions are extremely high.

welcome to dongmakgol (2005)

a fallen pilot from the american allied forces, two south korean escaped soldiers, and three north korean guerrilla soldiers coincidentally meet in a secluded village called dongmakgol, where its villagers have never seen a gun or heard of the ongoing korean war - what could possibly happen?

what takes place in the next 2 hours of screentime is a lovely mix of comedy, drama, wartime violence, nostalgia, and heartwarming  relationships that makes welcome to dongmakgol one of the better reunification films i’ve seen thus far. 

what really distinguishes welcome to dongmakgol from other war films, though, apart from the creation of dongmakgol itself, is the injection of absurd comedic moments (as the koreans might say, gags) that had me chuckling in my seat. those who watched the film would know - from the explosion of popcorn to the guerrilla soldiers wasting their ammunition on killing snakes - and in some way this resembles bong’s trademark casual juxtaposition of comedic moments and grave topics. yet what welcome to dongmakgol did not neglect to do was to emphasise the severe trauma war could cause soldiers, regardless of which side of the fence they stood on. to this, i found the ensemble acting so solid i felt for every character, even the unnamed villagers. it was also a pleasure to see young jung jae-young (!!), shin ha-kyun, and kang hye-jung.

its ending, where the north and korean soldiers leave dongmakgol to create a decoy base to prevent the american forces from bombing the village, definitely brought a tear to my eye. as did the departure scene, where the dongmakgol villagers - not knowing the magnitude of the soldiers’ sacrifice - weep goodbye to the strangers they had sincerely welcomed and taken care of. ultimately, i think welcome to dongmakgol is at heart a pacifist film, with dongmakgol representing a pre-war simplicity and innocence that both sides (and the director) yearn for.

(i was surprised by how explicitly anti-american certain scenes were, especially in depicting american soldiers’ disregard towards bombing potential communist bases, despite risking civilian lives. interestingly, this film was released around the same time as the host - and forms part of the anti-american zeitgeist of the early 2000s, while shedding light on foreign forces’ brutality during the war.)

tonally, welcome to dongmakgol reminded me of studio ghibli films, notably grave of the fireflies. this was achieved most ostensibly through joe hisashi’s music, which create a surreal and mystical atmosphere for the village. the stone figures / masks that decorate the paths leading to dongmakgol, or the appearance of butterflies whenever wartime weapons threaten to disrupt dongmakgol’s peace further emphasised the simplicity of dongmakgol and its connection with nature. the replacement of the symbols of wartime brutality with symbols of nature was a genius move - even the depiction of american bombs resembled fireworks.

welcome to dongmakgol, all the while placing the severity of war square centre, uses its artistic license to create an extraordinary, light-hearted tale of the korean war. it may seem like a cluttered film from afar, but it’s a surprisingly easy film to like and feel for. -- 9/10
