Cannot say whether it's social criticism or just a reflection of life
zzmale10 March 2004
The literal translation of the title of this movie is: Whoever comes is alway a guest.

To certain aspect, this movie appears to be a reflection of a modern problem in a new era: due to the rapid life cycle of highly competitive modern market economy, i.e. a capitalist society, everyone is busy trying make money, or at least busy at jobs for simply trying to survive, and the traditional type of friendship in which everyone had time to visit each other is diminishing fast. Capitalizing on the people's eagerness for the type of close friendship of the old era, some people take advantage of others by exploiting this weakness. In this aspect, the movie also appears to be a work of social criticism.
