The political activism of this generation came to a head in June 1987 with major protests that forced the authoritarian government to hold universal suffrage elections and implement key democratic reforms. Over 35 years later, the filmmaker reflects on the state of this democracy through a warm-hearted family portrait set against the backdrop of the country\u2019s recent history.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1800\" height=\"1033\" src=\"https:\/\/lepetitseptieme.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/K-Family-Affairs-Arum-Nam-et-sa-mere.jpg\" alt=\"K-Family Affairs - Arum Nam et sa m\u00e8re\" class=\"wp-image-40685\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lepetitseptieme.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/K-Family-Affairs-Arum-Nam-et-sa-mere.jpg 1800w, https:\/\/lepetitseptieme.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/K-Family-Affairs-Arum-Nam-et-sa-mere-300x172.jpg 300w, https:\/\/lepetitseptieme.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/K-Family-Affairs-Arum-Nam-et-sa-mere-1024x588.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/lepetitseptieme.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/K-Family-Affairs-Arum-Nam-et-sa-mere-768x441.jpg 768w, https:\/\/lepetitseptieme.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/K-Family-Affairs-Arum-Nam-et-sa-mere-1536x881.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/lepetitseptieme.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/K-Family-Affairs-Arum-Nam-et-sa-mere-600x344.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1800px) 100vw, 1800px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>Arum Nam and her mother<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Using a personal and intimate cinematic style, Arum examines her father&#8217;s adherence to convention as a senior civil servant and her mother&#8217;s fervent enthusiasm as a feminist activist. In the midst of these two contrasting dynamics, Arum seeks to discover her own role and how she can contribute to social change.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With her first documentary, <em>K-Family Affairs<\/em> (\uc560\uad6d\uc18c\ub140), the young South Korean director pulls off a coup: telling her country&#8217;s recent political history through her family reality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Family history<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>I&#8217;ve often spoken out against those so-called documentaries that tell an uninteresting family story. And I still say it: a family story is not a relevant subject for a documentary. But&#8230;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Although <em>K-Family Affairs<\/em> focuses on the director&#8217;s family, it&#8217;s mostly about the country&#8217;s politics, and the social changes that are happening or not happening. It has to be said that the young woman has an atypical family. Her father works for the government, while her mother is an activist who has spent most of her life attacking government practices. They met at university, while he was studying to be a journalist.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The director doesn&#8217;t dwell on the decisive moment when the father decided to change his career plans to become a civil servant. But we sense that there was a great deal of tension at the time. But the couple decided to continue their relationship. Through the parents&#8217; relationship, Arum deals with the fate of women in Korean society in the &#8217;80s, as well as today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some sequences are more touching, even unsettling, especially for a parent. In one of the sequences, taken from family archives, we see the mother sitting on the floor with her two little twin daughters, less than 1 year old. The director tells us, in voice-over, that when she watched this video, she discovered a look in her mother&#8217;s eyes that she had never seen before. A deep sadness, an empty look of a woman who, now that she&#8217;s married and has children, finds herself obliged to leave her job and career to look after the children and the house. Because that&#8217;s how a woman should live in society. Even if a woman has the right to go back to work after having children, it&#8217;s strongly frowned upon. This look, then, which the director takes the time to show us, hints at all the sadness of a woman who dreams of &#8220;more&#8221; than just being a mother, a wife.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another sequence, just as difficult to bear, is shot by Arum. Against a background of sea and trees, she reads a letter she wrote to her father the previous year. An extremely harsh letter to the man she loves. In it, she refers to one of the country&#8217;s greatest tragedies, the sinking of the Sewol, when her father was in charge of this government department.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" src=\"https:\/\/lepetitseptieme.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/K-Family-affairs-Histoire-de-famille.jpg\" alt=\"K-Family affairs - Histoire de famille\" class=\"wp-image-40681\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lepetitseptieme.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/K-Family-affairs-Histoire-de-famille.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/lepetitseptieme.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/K-Family-affairs-Histoire-de-famille-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/lepetitseptieme.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/K-Family-affairs-Histoire-de-famille-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/lepetitseptieme.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/K-Family-affairs-Histoire-de-famille-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/lepetitseptieme.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/K-Family-affairs-Histoire-de-famille-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/lepetitseptieme.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/K-Family-affairs-Histoire-de-famille-600x338.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>The letter to her father<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>\u201cRecently, many of the youth that you wanted to protect had their lives taken away from them.

The director explains how bad she felt being at school and having no one to cry to. That she felt she had to do something. That&#8217;s when she wrote that letter to her father. On two occasions, she tries to broach the subject with her father, who avoids answering each time.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1800\" height=\"1033\" src=\"https:\/\/lepetitseptieme.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/K-Family-affairs-Histoire-politique.jpg\" alt=\"K-Family affairs - Histoire politique\" class=\"wp-image-40687\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lepetitseptieme.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/K-Family-affairs-Histoire-politique.jpg 1800w, https:\/\/lepetitseptieme.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/K-Family-affairs-Histoire-politique-300x172.jpg 300w, https:\/\/lepetitseptieme.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/K-Family-affairs-Histoire-politique-1024x588.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/lepetitseptieme.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/K-Family-affairs-Histoire-politique-768x441.jpg 768w, https:\/\/lepetitseptieme.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/K-Family-affairs-Histoire-politique-1536x881.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/lepetitseptieme.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/K-Family-affairs-Histoire-politique-600x344.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1800px) 100vw, 1800px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>The director&#8217;s father<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Her father is a man who places a great deal of emphasis on his role in government and, as such, must remain neutral and never give a political opinion. For his daughter, this is unacceptable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are also a few comical moments to lighten the narrative. For example, those tender moments when the twins celebrate their birthdays. The girls were born on the same day as the very first suffrage in this new democratic country. And since elections were held at fixed intervals, every 5 years, their birthdays fell on election day. Wasn&#8217;t this a sign of destiny that these girls should get involved in their society?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This anecdote is, of course, an excuse to bring up the monstrous demonstrations the country experienced in the 90s and 2000s. These included the demonstrations that led to the arrest of the former president, and those that led to the fall of the current regime, which meant that the twins&#8217; birthday no longer fell on the same day as the elections.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>A little more&#8230;<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>With K-Family Affairs, Arum Nam manages to deal with complex social issues such as politics, tragedy and women&#8217;s rights in a light-hearted tone, using anecdotes from her family.

The young woman wonders how far Korean society has come, and how solid these changes are. After all, in recent years, we&#8217;ve seen a resurgence of conservative extremism all over the Occident. It would seem that Asia&#8217;s democracies are not immune.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This documentary is a must-see for anyone interested in equality and progressive progress worldwide.
