In the end who was that other guy with his arm cut off?
are you talking about the guy from the very last scene? bc if so he was at the opening for the movie with other entertainers and he was probably (if I got the hint correctly) part of that group who believed in the equality of all people. maybe he's kind of a symbol for rebel too.
Exactly my reaction. Maybe I would think differently if I knew about Korean history of this time period? The movie…
maybe bc it's a story not so history content but more about relations of two main characters. and there is the end for them, the end of their story. though not the end for the other people, for commoners
