Memorable Quotes
저승법 제1조 1항. 이승에서 용서받은 죄는 저승에서 다시 논하지 않는다.
— King Yeomra
Context:
King Yeomra declares this law during Ja-hong's final trial in the Hell of Filial Impiety. After witnessing through Soo-hong's dream that their mother had already forgiven Ja-hong for the darkest moment of their past, Yeomra applies this fundamental law, nullifying the charge and granting him reincarnation.
Meaning:
"Underworld Law, Article 1, Clause 1: A sin that has been forgiven in the living world will not be judged again in the underworld." This quote encapsulates the film's central message about the power of human forgiveness over divine judgment. It is the legal and moral principle that ultimately saves Ja-hong.
고개 드세요, 김자홍 씨. 당신 아직 죄인 아닙니다.
— Gang-rim
Context:
Gang-rim says this to a distraught Ja-hong early in the film as they are about to begin the trials. Ja-hong is overwhelmed and feels like a sinner, but Gang-rim reassures him that his fate is not yet sealed and that they will fight for him.
Meaning:
"Lift your head, Mr. Kim Ja-hong. You are not a sinner yet." This line establishes the role of the guardians as defenders and provides a crucial sense of hope for Ja-hong at the beginning of his daunting journey. It signifies the principle of being innocent until proven guilty, even in the afterlife.
