Korean movie review - Because I hate Korea (2024)
Go Ah-sung presents an outstanding performance in "Because I Hate Korea (2024)", capturing the subtle emotional journey of her character, Gye-na. She plays a young woman who leaves everything behind to find happiness and a sense of accomplishment in New Zealand, disillusioned with life in Korea.
The film begins with a stark sense of frustration over Kye Na's life in Korea, which she perceives as oppressive and restrictive. Goa-sung skillfully conveys this initial determination to escape, immersing herself in a character that is mixed with challenge and fragile hope. Watching Goa-sung change and evolve as she immersed herself in a new environment in New Zealand, I can see that true satisfaction is not as simple as a change in scenery. Goa-sung's subtle facial expressions and introverted moments inject depth into Kye Na's journey, making the audience feel her struggles and moments of quiet revelation.
The film deeply resonates with viewers, especially those who are accustomed to the immigrant experience. It raises the essential question of whether the essence of happiness can be gained by leaving somewhere else, or whether you need something deeper inside yourself. The film does not just describe a journey to a foreign land, but also earnestly explains the meaning of self-discovery, happiness, that you explore there. Through Kye-na's experience, the film seems to subtly ask, "Can leaving lead to true happiness?"
