Weirdly so hilarious!
I wanted to watch this movie for Hong Kyung because I love him as an actor! From watching the trailer, I thought it would be very serious, but I loved how much of a comedy it ended up being. Very funny! The cinematography of it was my favorite part though! There were such cool shots in this! Highly recommend!Also shout out to Kyung for speaking 3 languages in this movie!

la mire por hong kyung y está todo q veeer ?
Esta pelicula me decidi a miearla porque me salieron edita de tiktoks (ya saben que esa es la razon por la que me decido a mirar algo) tambien fue porque el actor hong kyung (uno de los co protagonistas) sale en esta peli (como habia visto weak hero, queria ver como actuaba en este nuevo papel)la trama es interesante porque es basada en una historia real, asi que eso llama mas la atencion.
la peli tiene momentos de comedia, que me daban mas coraje que gracia, dejame explicarlo. Me daban coraje, por el hecho de pensar que asi se comportan los gobernates en situaciones realmente serias o tragicas y se preocupaban por otras cosas o se lo tomaban a la ligera.
Yo si lo veo como una critica/realidad a lo que pasa con los que estan en el poder, aquello que nosotros los ciudadanos no logramos ver, como es que “resuleven” situaciones de este tipo pero al final solo muestra aquella cara de la luna. (referencia lol)
no se mucho de hacer reseñas ni nada de eso, asi que solo doy mi humilde opinion…pero ya no estare de mamadora :p
sobre el final si me dejo una sensacion de frustracion, porque el seo go (el guapo del hong kyung) al final termino siendo un heroe tras bambalinas como su padre, que ironico la
verdad. Yo realmente queria que fuera reconocido por todo su labor, porque apesar de que primero se vio obligado, conforme fue avanzando la trama se dio cuenta que podia ser reconido por su hazaña y lo tento el exito, al final lo hizo por humanidad y se dio cuenta que solo queria salvarlos, asi que el ver que todo lo que hizo fue ocultado por el gobierno fue como ???? >:c si me dio coraje
wey, le dieron un reloj tambien ptm
pero al final es una realidad en nuestras vidas, en la historia cuantos no fueron heroes y la realidad es que otros terminaron llevandose el reconocimiento por lo hecho…no es justo, pero son cosas que pasan…que el sistema hace que pase.
tengo que mencionar que el hong kyung estaba mas sexy que de costumbre, q hombre la verdad, esa voz (EN TRES IDIOMAS) todo que ver, el japones ufff
facilmente podría ser mi ruido blanco cada noche
todo con ese hombre esta realmente bien, no me arrepiento de verlo en esta peli
wey que onda con los “secuestradores” eran un chiste realmente, obvio yo pensaba que ellos no se iban a atrever a matar a los pasajeros y le atine, es que no me daban vibras de malotes, ni nada, solo querian ser vistos o que alguien hablara de ellos, esa es mi percepcion
si tuviera que decidir si lo recomiendo: diria que si, es una peli buena para pasar el
rato y entretenida ;p
tambien lo que me gusto es que hablaran japones, coreano y un poco de ingles

Pyongyang Yes or No
The description puts this movie into the genres of Action, Thriller, Mystery, and Crime, but it is actually an artistic comedy in the style of Wes Anderson. So it is quite unique for Korean cinema.In the plot, the hijackers want to go to Pyongyang, but it seems like no one really knows what to do. Director Byun Sung-hyun took a strange historical story and turned it into an absurd and satirical comedy where all the ridiculous things you could think of find their place. This is good news if you enjoy this kind of comedy, but bad news if you expect something serious and realistic (like the “news” in the movie’s title). For me, the jokes were interesting, especially the intellectual ones, though a few gags felt cringy. Still, once or twice I did laugh out loud.
I appreciate the movie’s artistic style and the detailed production — even the insert shots or flashback scenes that last only a few seconds clearly took effort. (Were some of them maybe made by AI?)
As a religious person, I didn’t like how the movie portrayed prayer, but I admit that it fits the tone of this kind of satirical cinema, which offers viewers a bit of light-hearted escape from a boring reality. Overall, this movie is a good choice for when you have some spare time or want something different.

Political satire - that's how it's done!
This was a well-written and well-acted movie. It's been a long time since I've watched a K-drama with the comedy tag that was actually laugh out loud funny. The storyline is very confusing, but that's to be expected with the multiple countries represented. I also like how they actually kept the factual details.The only reason I couldn't rate it higher was because of the language. The cursing was jarring and constant. If I was able to understand Korean better, if I'd watched it without subtitles, that would have been better. I would still know that the cursing was going on, but, since they talk so fast, it wouldn't have been an issue. Seeing it typed on the screen just took me out of the enjoyment of the movie. Seriously, has anyone ever watched something and said, "I wish there was MORE cursing." It's just unnecessary.

Expected a lot more honestly
I finished this movie a while ago actually but just completely forgot about it 😂😂 its so insignificant and it was quite honestly boring. It took me 3 days to finish it cause I kept pausing. Now call me whatever you want, but I’m usually not a big fan of media that over does its humor. It honestly felt like they were trying TOO hard to be funny and sarcastic… I get it was poking fun in politics yadda yadda whatever, it had almost the exact same style as Parasite but in this movie it just kinda bored me.Great actors though. The only reason I continued and was dedicated to finish it was for my boy Hongkyung… other than that… the movie was definitely a bleh fest. Its not that good, not bad either. I did expect it to be better with that type of cast though. But oh well!

Détournement, chaos et rires improbables... j’ai été surprise
Avec "Good News", on plonge direct dans une histoire complètement dingue inspirée de faits réels 😮💨 (le détournement du vol ✈️ Japan Airlines 351). On est en 1970, un avion japonais est pris d’assaut et des tensions entre le Japon, la Corée du Sud et la Corée du Nord explosent en plein ciel 💥. Au milieu de ce chaos politique, débarque “Nobody”, un personnage insaisissable chargé d’orchestrer une mission secrète pour sauver la situation. Autant dire qu’on est loin du simple film d’action... "Good News" joue clairement la carte de la satire intelligente, entre bureaucratie absurde, politique kafkaïenne et plus de 100 personnes prise en otage 😬Ce qui m’a scotchée, c’est cette vibe étrange mais géniale 😳. Tu sens que tout est grave, que les enjeux sont énormes… et pourtant, je me suis surprise à rire 😅. Les dialogues, les regards, les micro-gestes... tout est calibré pour te faire sourire même quand la tension est à son comble. Je trouve que ce contraste, entre drame et ironie, fonctionne à merveille 🔥. Ça lui donne un ton unique, qui lui permet de se différencier, mais du coup, je comprends que certains soient un peu déroutés 😁
Les personnages sont écrits avec une vraie finesse 👌🏻. Sol Kyung-Gu incarne ce fonctionnaire paumé, constamment tiraillé entre la morale et le devoir. Hong Kyung, lui, apporte une sincérité désarmante, le jeune homme perdu dans ce jeu politique, mais dont la naïveté rend chaque scène un peu plus touchante 🥹. Et puis, y’a Nobody… Ryoo Seung-Beom est fascinant dans ce rôle mi-ombre, mi-observateur cynique. Tu ne sais jamais s’il agit par conviction ou par pur amusement, et c’est exactement ce qui le rend aussi captivant 😏💫
Franchement, je m’attendais pas à ce genre de vibe, mais j’ai passé un vrai bon moment devant "Good News". C’est un film qui te laisse un peu perplexe, un peu pensif… mais dans le bon sens du terme 🫰🏻✨. C’est innovant, déroutant, un peu absurde mais intelligent... bref, une bonne surprise pour moi "Made in Korea" 😉✌🏻

O que devo dizer?
Essa história cara, realmente cresce o ódio nos personagens e em como funciona toda a estrutura social coreana, saber que simplesmente eles podem só se safar das responsabilidades só por causa dos seus cargos, meu irmão... O protagonista desse filme sofre e sofre muito, mas ao mesmo tempo é muito informativo, por mais que tenha a parte fictícia que são as piadas e literalmente toda a história, ainda assim, eles realmente fazem muita crítica cabeça e é muito bom, pra quem é estudante de sociologia ou só curte mais mesmo essa parte política é muito bom.Was this review helpful to you?
uma sátira política
se baseando em fatos reais do sequestro de um avião japonês, o diretor e roteirista souberam explorar o aspecto político muito bem nesse enredo.recheado até a tampa de sátira, várias piadinhas e políticos de alto escalão extremamente patéticos, o filme vai acabar te arrancando nos risadas.
a Estela do filme sem dúvida é o HongKyung, que mais uma vez dá um show de atuação. todos nós o conhecemos pelo papel de “vilão” em WEAK HERO CLASS 1, e aqui ele tb tem uma desenvoltura absurda. deslizando entre o coreano, japonês e inglês ele não deixa nada a desejar pra ninguém.
e por falar em ninguém, o ator SolKyungGu é um lobbysta de se tirar o chapéu! ele manipula todo o alto escalão para conseguir os fins que precisa.
o filme é muito bem escrito, a fotografia é linda e as atuações impecáveis! valeu a pena a tarde do meu sábado
