Comments from Bernadette Cha (Theresa's sister) upon viewing the film: Theresa and James stayed at the women's university. Aunt was a music teacher at Univ. They shot poorer areas first. Train was how northerners traveled during Japanese occupation and how Cha's parents left Manchuria. Parents lived in Manchuria where displaced Koreans lived in China during Japanese occupation. Manchurian Koreans vs Koreans. Seoul vs Manchuria. Seoul - modern vs Manchuria - harsh environment. Cha experienced end of war. Modern Korea vs old Korea of her youth. Contrast old vs new. Born in Korea yet a foreigner. Airplane ride-humorous. Korean men love rides. Fire is no safety, no laws. Buildings built with no safety. Earthiness of Korea. Set of imagination. Open scenes anyone can relate to.
