A Taxi Driver (Movie) Reaction [FULL]

this one got me emotional.

I do wonder how much of this is dramatized despite it very much being based on a true story

According to Hinzpeter’s own testimony during his lifetime, at the final military checkpoint, a soldier actually discovered the film in the car while searching it, but let them go anyway. In the drama adaptation, this was changed to the detail of a Seoul license plate, but in any case, a soldier who allowed them to pass like that did exist in real life. I know you enjoy films related to history. In fact, Korea has a strong interest in stories about its modern history, and many films set in these periods have been so popular that they reached the Korean box office milestone of 10 million viewers. The history of Korea’s democratization was extremely intense and painful, and since these events are not that far in the past—and with recent incidents such as the Yoon Suk-yeol martial law declaration controversy—public interest in films about democratization remains very high. To help you understand, here’s an overview of Korean history: 1. Gojoseon (c. 2333 BCE – 108 BCE) – The first ancient Korean state 2. Buyeo, Goguryeo, Okjeo, Dongye, Samhan (1st century BCE – 4th century CE) – Era of various small states and tribal confederations 3. Three Kingdoms Period (Goguryeo, Baekje, Silla; c. 4th century – 668 CE) ex) Queen seondeok(drama) 4. North–South States Period (Unified Silla & Balhae; 668 – 935 CE) 5. Goryeo Dynasty (918 – 1392) – Founded by Wang Geon, development of Buddhist culture ex) Goblin(drama) 6. Joseon Dynasty (1392 – 1897) – Confucian-centered governance, King Sejong, the Imjin War, Manchu invasions ex) Kingdom (drama), the painter of the wind(drama), the throne(movie), the face reader(movie), The Night Owl(movie) trailer: https://youtu.be/pSFrsJO-K7w?si=rS9JtyKFnuPMZOkd trailer: https://youtu.be/3EXTJ6NLFAY?si=zoB90cvFmg4-HpxM trailer: https://youtu.be/XOWE2vV9VVc?si=GVri9OZyL-xm7ULJ 7.

Late 1950s–1970s: Industrialization, military regimes ex) When Life Gives You Tangerines (drama) 12. 1980s: Democratization movements, June Democratic Uprising ex) Reply 1988 (drama), When Life Gives You Tangerines (drama), A Taxi Driver (movie), Moving (drama) 13. 1990s–present: Democratic consolidation, 1997 Asian Financial Crisis, transition to an information society ex) When Life Gives You Tangerines (drama), Moving (drama) 14. 2000s–present Here are some recommended films set in these historical periods. They are all high-quality works, and I can assure you that you won’t regret watching them. If you’re particularly interested in films about the democratization movement of 1980, I recommend watching them in historical order: - The Man Standing Next (set in 1979, assassination of President Park Chung-hee) trailer: https://youtu.be/_uRNaKDS0gs?si=rNp9zDR9PH42wc-7 - 12.12: The Day (Seoul’s Spring) (set in 1979, military coup) trailer: https://youtu.be/H_zrVAVlZw0?si=ADNBkxy6S2wEQg8m - A Taxi Driver (set in 1980, Gwangju May 18 Democratization Movement) - 1987: When the Day Comes (set in 1987, June Democratic Uprising) trailer: https://youtu.be/19hvVaeJ4tI?si=qzd92wqLhvd1M9zl
