In my country, people are generally divided into two groups when it comes to watching movies: those who prefer local films and those who enjoy foreign ones. Local films often focus on family issues, such as conflicts between a stepmother's love and a daughter's love, as well as other common love stories between poor boys and rich girls, or vice versa. These types of movies are especially popular among older generations. In contrast, younger people prefer foreign films, especially Hollywood and Korean dramas. These movies are more modern, creative, and exciting compared to the repetitive and predictable stories in local films.
