South Korea experienced colonization and war in the early and mid-20th century.After colonization and war,the task of modernization was accomplished through the establishment of a modern state.The plan to complete the modern state reduced modernization into the economy.In the second half of the 20th century,Korean cinema sympathized with or criticized this project of modernization and represented poverty.The films of the 60s represented absolute poverty and showed unfounded optimism with"unrealistic realism".The 80s represented relative poverty and showed the pessimism of"critical realism".In the 21st century,Korean cinema has realized an"aesthetic turn"by showing the compatibility of modernization plans through the representation of the gap between the rich and the poor.
