ABSTRACT

In recent years, both Korean and Chinese Realistic theme category movies have exerted great influence, especially those movies in South Korea that awaken the world to criticize the society, face up to social pain and illness, and express themselves boldly. At the same time, Chinese films also have their own unique artistic styles. Therefore, this thesis makes a comparative study of the most representative films from both countries. These two films have similar story materials, social influence and audience identification, as well as different film expression and audience understanding. From the perspective of semiotics, this paper makes a detailed and specific analysis of the characters and metaphors in the process from the director's coding to the audience's decoding. China is characterized by rich metaphors, restrained expression, indirect and gentle social feedback, while Korea is characterized by bold expression, profound audio-visual language use and great social influence.
