Bahas Film: Persona

Persona adalah film pertama dimana IU berperan sebagai tokoh utama. Film antologi ini dibagi kedalam 4 segmen cerita dengan judul Love Set, Collector, Kiss Burn dan Walking at The Night. Keempatnya dibintangi oleh IU dengan sutradara yang berbeda-beda. Selain itu keempat ceritanya tidak memiliki keterkaitan antara satu dengan yang lainnya.

LOVE SET menjadi cerita segmen pertama. Disutradarai oleh Lee Kyoung Mi (di kenal sebagai sutradara film pendek di Korea, dan juga berakting di beberapa film, termasuk The Berlin File), Love Set bercerita tentang pertandingan tenis antara seorang wanita muda yang diperankan oleh IU dan guru bahasa Inggrisnya yang tak lain adalah wanita yang ingin dinikahi oleh ayahnya. Bisa dibilang ini adalah kisah persaingan tenis dengan calon ibu tiri.

COLLECTOR menjadi judul film selanjutnya dalan antologi Persona. Disutradarai oleh Yim Pil Sung, (yang juga menjadi sutradara film Scarlet Innocence), cerita di segmen kedua bercerita tentang seorang wanita muda menarik yang membuat pria merasa sangat nyaman namun setelahnya Ia (wanita muda yang diperankan oleh IU ini) dapat dengan mudah berganti pasangan. Segmen ini menampilkan Park Hae Soo, yang juga bermain dalam drama Memories of Alhambra dan Prison Playbook.

KISS BURN menjadi judul cerita selanjutnya. Kiss Burn disutradarai oleh Jeon Go Woon, yang memenangkan penghargaan rookie director of the year untuk film Little Princess tahun 2018. Di cerita ketiga ini menceritakan tentang seorang teman laki-laki dan perempuan dan terlibat dalam kecelakaan bermula dari Bok yang dikurung dalam rumah karena ayahnya menemukan kiss mark pada tubuhnya.

WALKING AT NIGHT adalah cerita keempat yang bertema tentang depresi. Berkisah tentang pasangan yang bertemu dalam mimpi untuk mengatakan apa yang tidak bisa dikatakan saat mereka terjaga. Segmen ini disutradarai oleh Kim Jong Kwon, yang dikenal karena film-film pendeknya, dan dinataranya memenangkan Penghargaan FIPRESCI di Festival Film Internasional Moskow ke-38 pada tahun 2016.

Sebagaimana film pendek pada umumnya, keempat cerita pendek diatas membuat penonton membuat persepsi masing-masing atas makna yang tersirat dalam tiap film. Yang menarik disini adalah IU dapat memerankan keempat karakter berbeda dalam film dengan sangat baik.

Entah kebetulan atau tidak, ditahun yang sama boyband BTS, yang bukan rahasia umum lagi bahwa salah satu membernya adalah UAENA (sebutan untuk penggemar IU) merilis album yang diberi judul Map of The Soul (Persona) bahkan keduanya sama-sama rilis di bulan yang sama. Mengingat film Persona sempat delay karena ada tragedi nasional di Korea kala itu.

Film antologi Persona dijadwalkan memiliki season 2, namun hingga saat ini belum ada kelanjutan kabarnya. Kamu dapat menyaksikan film ini di Netflix.

Persona: collector (2019).

Dir.: Yim Pil-Sung.

🇰🇷Corea del Sur.

Un cortrometaje que narra el fin de la inocencia y que muestra cómo, a veces, nuestras acciones nos persiguen y acabamos recogiendo lo que sembramos. Increíbles Hae-soo Park y Lee Ji Eun.

Doomsday Book (2012)

When you watch a horror anthology, you have to sort of expect a mixed bag. I can't think of any where every chapter is of the same quality. Doomsday Book continues this trend, with one weak entry, one that's ok and a third that is far above the other two. There is no wraparound story, so let’s just dive right in.

A Brave New World

A Brave New World begins with a geeky, military research scientist Yoon (Ryoo Seung-bum) being bullied by his family into cleaning up their disgusting home before they leave on holiday. His luck turns around when he goes on a date with an attractive young lady (Go Joon-hee). Their evening is ruined by contaminated food, which turns them into flesh-eating zombies. The plague begins to spread uncontrollably.

There’s nothing you haven’t seen before here if you’re familiar with the zombie-genre classics. There isn’t even some kind of Korean twist or anything, it’s just a basic zombie story where no one understands what is going on until the zombie apocalypse is too far gone to stop. The one element that makes it stand out is one that makes absolutely no sense. Early in the short, Yoon throws away a moldy, disgusting apple in the garbage. That garbage gets recycled into cow feed, which for unexplained reason becomes the cause of the zombie outbreak. Is it a coincidence? Is it symbolism? According to the biblical quote at the end, taken from the book of Genesis and telling us about the forbidden fruit in the garden of Eden, it’s some sort of cautionary tale about knowledge or humanity getting into business it has no business in. It makes no sense.

The Heavenly Creature

Easily the best of the three stories, Park Do-Won (Kim Kang-woo) is a young technician called to inspect an android named RU-4. The robot (voiced by Park Hae-il) has given itself the name of In-myung and claims not only to have become a Buddhist but to have achieved enlightenment after working (and studying) in a monastery. The monks there want to know whether it is telling the truth or if it is a technical glitch. When Do-won gives the robot a clean bill of health, no one knows how to respond.

There are many fascinating ideas in this short. The robot has become self-aware and understands the un-scientific subject of religion. If the first robot Buddhist can attain enlightenment while so many humans fail to do so, what does it mean? Robots are already more durable, more intelligent, and better at countless tasks than we are... are we also inferior to them in matters of faith? Seeing the characters debate the question is terrific. Even if you aren't familiar with Buddhism, it's broken down very well and easily digestible. The one gripe I have with The Heavenly Creature is a long monologue about why robots need to be different from humans and what they can and should be able to be and do. It’s interesting, but feels forcibly inserted and kills the pacing. It's well worth your time but would have benefitted greatly from being a standalone film with enough room to spread out its messages and ideas more organically throughout.

Happy Birthday

A young girl named Min-seo (Jin Ji-hee) orders a replacement 8 ball for the one she broke. To do this, she steals her mother’s credit card and places an order through a strange website. Hopefully, her pool-obsessed father (Lee Seung-jun) and uncle (Song Sae-byeok) won’t notice it’s gone until the replacement arrives in the mail. She throws the original ball out of the window and it falls into a strange hole in the street. Two years later, the planet is being threatened by an asteroid 10 kilometers in diameter headed straight for them. In the upcoming end of the world, the dysfunctional family begins to bond.

There are some nice moments in the short and some amusingly unexpected twists. but this fails to live up to its potential. We’ve got theories about wormholes, aliens, ironic deaths, moments you think are going to be dark but aren’t all jammed in next to some stuff that doesn’t make any sense. There are funny moments with the side characters of the film (seen in news broadcasts and infomercials) and I really like the premise, but the ending is terrible. If you see the film and don’t get why, ask yourself if there was not a better way to stop what happens from happening (considering what the game of pool is all about) and if the destruction we see is really what it would look like, particularly considering the circumstances. Also, why is there an alien? It’s a mess. Someone could polish rework this one into a solid horror comedy though.

Overall, Doomsday Book is worth watching, but not good enough for you need to rush out or make a big effort to see it. Your best bet is to rent it. Then you get the opportunity to see the stories at a low price. It’s sort of in that middle where you’re kind of let down but also pleased with the good moments. (On DVD with English subtitles, June 27, 2014)

I honestly don’t see Spencer listening to k-pop artists past the first generation, and, even then, I really don’t see him listening to k-pop just in general. ( there are probably a few notable exceptions, as shown above ). He probably has some awareness of a few k-pop singers through OSTs for dramas, but, aside from that, Spencer’s tastes definitely run more traditional. 

If anything, if he’s going to listen to anything outside of trot / ballads, he’d probably listen to more of the k-hip hop/rap scene, but nothing popularised. He’s very good at finding undercover k-hip hop/rap artists that he enjoys listening to, just as he does with the hip hop/rap scene in America.
