My Father (2007)

Duration: 107min

Starring : Daniel Henney, Kim Yeong Cheol

Directed: Hwang Dong-Hyuk

Languange: Korean & English

The movie is based on a true story, about a Korean boy adopted by American family and live in state since he was kid. He searched for his biological parents in south Korea and works as a volunteer in US armed forces in Korea.

James Parker finally meets his biological father Wang Nam Cheol who turn out to be a murderer on death row. Both slowly gets to know each other, and James finally discovered everything he does and doesn’t want to know.

I read from internet, that the release of this movie inspired controversy since the victim’s family did not support it’s production. However, the movie was on the top of South Korean box office sales chart on the first week.

I loooove this movie, not only because of Daniel’s excellence role but the whole moral of the story. The relationship between father and son, biologically or adopted means nothing when it comes to love. some scenes is identic to the actual event, as shown on the last part of the movie, it seems that the actual event scene taken from the documentary of the real “James Parker”. It’s very touching.

The DVD will be a great present for your Dad, and it will goes very well if you add “Man and Boy” by Tony Parsons.
