Here My Answer:
Film: Unstoppable Marriage
a. Information about the film
Unstoppable Marriage is a 2007 South Korean romantic comedy film. It stars veteran actors Kim Su-mi as Mal-nyon and Im Chae-mu as Ji-man alongside pop star and television actress Eugene Eun-ho and Ha Seok-jin as Hwang Ki-baek. This film tells about sweet and easygoing Eun Ho who grew up in a normal middle-class household with a strict and traditional father. Willful plastic surgeon Ki Baek was born into a wealthy family, and has the ego to match his income. Their two worlds collide quite literally when they meet through a paragliding accident. It's a classic case of opposites attract as they fight, falter, and fall in love, but their incompatible families are determined to break them apart.
b. Summary of cultural differences
The film shows how assimilation happens. There are some examples that pop up in this story. How a traditional toilet (squat toilet) changes to the modern toilet (flush toilet) and how Korean thinks that is strange if you must sit while you are defecating and how come the water flushes from inside of toilet. In Korea if you are not satisfied with part of your body, it can easily change by plastic surgery, almost everyone do this so you do not need to be ashamed and moreover their mother ask them and give the money.
The Korean still believes forecaster topology. They use chopsticks to eat, sometimes (for special food) they use fingers and spoon like us. In the movie, they show how the man family invites the woman family and the man family accustomed to using fork and knife and the traditional family use their hand. The traditional way use a short table and sit on the cushion on the floor. The movie also introduces traditional Korean doll that is made of mulberry paper and recycle paper. Right now, the Korean themselves do not respect to the craftsman like the first Korean. Their life tends to the western and fell positively to the western culture.
c. What can I learn from the film
From the film, I realize although we are in modern life, we should appreciate and know our culture. The western is not always better than the eastern culture and vice versa. In this film, I know how important to know another culture for daily life, appreciate each other help us life harmoniously. The film reminds me that "don't forget our own culture and don't underestimate another's" we must know the philosophy of the culture itself. It makes us the value of the culture.
d. Conclusion
Cultural intelligence is important, not only the intelligence of another but also of our culture. If you appreciate your own, people will appreciate yours, also appreciate another's make people appreciate yours.
