I wonder why youtube shut off the comments on Na's "Chinese" version of Remembering. Comments on the international version of the song were very complimentary. (on edit: okay i see one international version has Na singing in English)

Yes, the 800 isn't for everyone. My wife wouldn't watch it. it's pretty brutal. The cinematic technique and sets, remind me of the South Korean movie My Way. That film about WWII, covered the entirety of Eurasia. The two central characters, one Korean, and one Japanese, made the film easier to follow.

I posted about that movie in the world history group.

Yes, I wonder why the comments were shut off on Na's Chinese version. Irish_Dem May 2021 #5

there is a cold depersonalized aspect to the movie which is unsettling soryang May 2021 #6

The actual event was so surreal, the film had to show it as over the top Irish_Dem May 2021 #7
