that right . ohwon ( the painter and the main character ) be an exceptional person . what strike me most be the message this film might address to all of you people there . and the message be sad . it say that and it very difficult to do anything that amaze or maybe even genius without have to obey the government and establishment and other vip of this world . and even if you try and you might not be able to bear it . it be about the battle of a single person with a system . with many system . a great film of this wonderful korean director . please see it if you do have an opportunity .
