I watched Seo Bok, and it got me thinking. Cloned or not, if they've got thoughts and feelings, they're human in my book. But then, what if they don't age or die? That's a whole new kettle of fish.

Cloning humans? That's a slippery slope. If they're made in labs and tinkered with, they might look human, but are they really? I'm not so sure.

In reality, if human cloning were to happen, clones would indeed start as babies and go through the same developmental stages as any other human being. They would have their own personalities, experiences, and choices, which could lead them to diverge significantly from their genetic donors. The portrayal of clones as fully formed adults in this series might simplify the narrative for dramatic purposes, but it doesn't accurately reflect the complexities of real-life cloning.

I empathize with the clone in this movie because he's not treated as a human; rather, he's treated as a mere specimen. Growing up in a lab, he's denied the dignity and rights afforded to individuals. Instead, he's regarded as nothing more than an object, akin to a kidney bean or a specimen.

As someone who values individuality, Seo Bok prompted me to rethink my stance on cloning. While clones may share our DNA, their lack of unique experiences raises questions about their humanity. If they're denied autonomy and treated as mere commodities, it undermines the essence of being human.

I found Seo Bok to be a rather tedious cinematic experience, bordering on the verge of tedium. The film's runtime of two hours felt excessively protracted, with a slow-paced narrative that meandered aimlessly, devoid of the riveting action sequences one might expect from a sci-fi thriller. It wasn't until several hours into the film that any semblance of excitement or intrigue began to manifest. Furthermore, the pacing lacked the necessary momentum to sustain engagement, leaving me disenchanted and longing for more dynamic storytelling. In essence, while the premise held promise, the execution fell short of delivering a compelling viewing experience.
