I Am Happy

Korean Movie Review



A man (Hyeon Bin) suffers from mental illness after having lived with a mother suffering from dementia and a brother addicted to gambling. Now institutionalized, he falls in love with a nurse (Bo-young Lee) at the psychiatric hospital.
Man-soo runs a car repair shop in the small town. He lives with his elderly mother who suf- fers from dementia. One day, Man-soo’s older brother, a gambling addict, threatens him for the contract to the shop after stripping him of everything, but Man-soo doesn’t give in. But later on, his brother’s unavoidable death, his mother losing her memory, and his girlfriend leaving him because of his poverty all became heavy burdens on him. Man-soo locks himself in his room for a couple of days and is then sent to a mental institution later.
Later on Man-soo comes under the delusion that he has become a millionaire. He issues blank checks to the patients at the hospital showing off his wealth. In particular, he likes the head nurse of his ward, Su-kyung. She has been taking care of her father who has been sick in the hospital for a long time. Su-kyung receives consolation from Man-soo’s bright smile and warm words although he’s a mental health patient. But behind this bright smile hides his madness, not knowing what or when something will happen.

After his scandalous films, YOON Jong-Chan came back with another story about wounded souls. The director used a horror plot in his outstanding debut “Sorum”to describe the mentality of people who have been hurt, and in his second film, “Blue Swallow”, he told us a story about a woman aviator PARK Kyoung-won who was destined to fail. This time he has captured an idea from a short novel called ‘Mr. Cho, Man-deuk’ by LEE Cheong-joon. The story line and main characters differ slightly from the original story, but it still reflects life at a psychiatric ward. The story begins as troubled Man-soo becomes an inpatient at a psychiatric ward. Man-soo has a flabby family and a gambling brother, who comes to the hospital and bullies Man-soo for her credit card. These sad and angry memories about his family always ties Man-soo down and he tries to hide behind the world of his own creation. Soo-kyung, a nurse, who watches Man-soo everyday, is not exactly having a great life, either. She has a broken heart and also tries to recover from sad memories with her family. Where these two main characters meet is where all the wounded souls stay. HYEON Bin’s transformation into a sad inpatient and the clean image of LEE Bo-yeong stands out in the limited space of the psychiatric ward. The title of this film is a bit of a paradox, but clearly states the wish that we all have for a happier life.

Hyung Bin is Back in the Big Screen with “I Am Happy”

Hyung Bin is finally back on the big screen with romance-drama “I Am Happy”.  The last movie Bin made was in 2006 “A Millionaire’s First Love” which is regarded as one of the best Korean dramas ever made.

“I Am Happy” is about two lonely people whose lonely lives crossed in a mental institution and found consolation in each other’s company.  Hyun Bin will play the role of Man-soo a man suffering from a mental illness called megalomania or otherwise termed as “delusions of grandeur”, an abnormal behavior that denotes obsession to having/obtaining extravagance and grandiosity. He acquires this psychological disorder after living with his mom with dementia and his older brother, a gambling addict.  Man-soo owns a car repair shop in their small town when his gambling brother committed suicide leaving him with a huge amount of debt. Later, his mother loses her memory and her girlfriend left him because of his poverty. He was deeply absorbed in the situation that he locked himself in his room for a couple of days and suffers insanity. He is then sent to a psychiatric hospital where he began to have the delusion that he has become a millionaire and issues blank checks to all the other patients in the mental ward.

There, he admires the head nurse assigned in his ward, Soo-kyeong portrayed by Lee Bo-young, who also have loads of pain from life. She has been taking care of her father with liver cancer who has been sick in the hospital for a long time causing her to incur debt for his treatment, apart from the fact that she also has a terminal-stage rectal cancer.

Knowing the movie plot alone makes me a little depressed.  But the movie was based on a novel “Mr. Cho Man-deuk” written by Lee Cheong-joon about a true story he heard from his friend.

According to the film’s director Yoon Jong-chan, he liked the story which talks about a man who goes crazy because he can’t bear the weight of reality, and thought of doing an adaptation of it on film. He was interviewed during their media preview and press conference held last Nov. 13, 2009 at CGV Theatre, Seoul, South Korea, together with the two leads.

When asked, why the title of the film is “I Am Happy” when the characters in the story are far from being happy? Director Yoon replied, “It’s a paradoxical statement, the man is happy because he goes crazy from his miserable life. But I felt that the fact of being alive, just that itself, could be considered a blessing. People who are going through rough times might be consoled after watching the film, especially when they see that the main characters go back to their normal lives after overcoming their difficulties”.
