I wouldn't say Padak's death is without buildup or comes out of nowhere. Not only is it explicably said the order was changed to mackerel, but before Padak is served up there's an animated music number between Padak and the Master where they make amends, which ends with Padak being scooped up in a net, reflecting how she has been taken to be eaten.

Personally I love the way they revealed Padak's death in the film, it was done perfectly. We had all the slow suspense and build-up already from the Master, to do it again with Padak so soon would lose effect, and this way it's almost as if his horror got transferred to her. It wasn't mentioned in this review but I also adore the transition from the cartoon animated song portion to the death reveal. The cartoon is a very artistic, poetic depiction of Padak saying goodbye to the Master, but it's kind of slowly revealed so as you watch the story unfold you start to put the pieces together (along with the knowledge that the customer now wants mackerel), realising by the end of the cartoon segment that Padak has been caught and is being taken to the afterlife. Then the huge shock and stark contrast between such a subtle and beautiful, almost ethereal piece to the sudden confronting image of Padak being served in pieces and mocked by the customer creates such a feeling of outrage at how disrespectful and cruel this was.

Funfact: Padak is also the name of a Korean dish.

There are multiple meanings, this film is originally called 파닥파닥, which translates to ‘flap flap’ which are sounds made when fish are out of water. The Korean dish is called ‘파닭’ where the 파 means Scallion and 닭 meaning chicken I know because I’m Korean

The reason for Padak's attack on the clownfish is cause she's a mackeral, much of their natural diet consists of smaller fish and plankton. Her reason for rejecting the dead fish was purely out of defiance to the flounder, cause eating the food he provides would ultimately make her as dependant on him as the others.

I appreciate a lot of Korean cinema because it's extremely realistic in going against the grain for tropes. Heroes don't always win. The protagonists aren't always redeemable. It's depressing, but it also teaches you a lesson. Korean films have impacted me more than any other nation's, and I've seen so few. (Of course, I know this means they I might have just gotten very lucky in my selection, but still ...)

Look up Temple Grandin and you'll see what I mean. The reality of meat is that you have to kill something to get it. The reality of GOOD meat is that you have to do so in the quickest way possible, so as not to prolong the animal's suffering. If you can't do that, then you are a sad, pathetic human being.

Steve Reviews, what I like about this movie is that in the end Padak accepts her fate and that she wouldn't get to escape. She knows it's okay to face death. When Padak realizes her tragic end, she doesn't change one bit, and does the best thing she knows how to do; inspire others. In ''Forgive Me" we see Spotty take her fin as if to comfort her and is guiding Padak to the afterlife. When the Master was trying to escape, Padak encourages him in spirit . You can literally hear her voice going, " You're almost there!" and "don't stop!". Padak, even when dead still lives on in heaven with Spotty. And the reason that Padak ate the Nemos was because she was starving and she snapped and went in a feeding frenzy. She didn't have anything to eat for a while. But, to be fair, Padak stopped and realized what she was becoming. I give the movie a 6/10.

I think the way the humans were animated is clever. Humans aren’t aliens to us - but they are to the fish. It’s difficult for us to see ourselves as aliens, but the way it’s animated pulls it off really well. Not only how creepy the people look but also in how slow & janky they move - fish are extremely fluid & agile in the water - it makes sense to see that contrast when looking at humans in their perspective This can also be seen in the environment, the water, ocean & nemo tank has a sense of being a fairly sparse, clean & a fluid place - whereas the humans open air world is full of grime, clutter & everything grounded. The human’s world of densely populated cities & claustrophobia is then replicated onto the fish by shoving them all into small overcrowded tanks - the fish are subjected to a completely an alien world.. helping us see the perspective of our self’s being alien.

I'm not really shocked. I owned fish before, they don't empathize with fish that are not the same size at all. They do try to get along with those of the same size, probably because it would waste their energy.. but smaller ones get attacked, even if they are the same species. This doesn't mean that they deserve to be consumed while alive however. There are obviously ways to kill a fish before eating it. Than again... fish don't bother to kill each other before eating. They don't have a concept of mercy. However I do understand humans do, so its odd not to do it just for that reason. Lets just say I'm not really taking sides, I'm on the fence about this topic.

Yeah it’s how fish when they say that humans are monsters, no pun intended

I will always thank this video for introducing me to Padak for the first time This film impacted me in more ways than I can describe. Not only has the film gone into my top 10 films of all time for many reasons but it has also inspired me creatively through various ways like how to tell an interesting story in one location or how to make sympathetic yet morally ambiguous characters Oh, and I guess it also put me off fish for life 😂

Ya’ll forgetting that by the time Padak ate the clownfish, she must’ve been bloody starving. She hasn’t eaten in days.

I feel like Spotty and Padak's deaths were basically the breaking point for the master to work up the courage to escape and live. The entire film he accepted that they were all already dead and trapped forever.

Honestly, considering how much whiplash this film gives based on your synopsis, I was honestly surprised the Master actually got to survive. I figured that a bigger fish would just devour him in one bite mere moments after he landed in the ocean.

I actually watched the whole movie a few months ago and it’s pretty deep. I don’t really think of it as a horror movie, I see it more as a POV fish life movie. Despite humans eating fish to survive, this is supposed to take place in a fish’s perspective.

PADAK is a award winning Korean animated movie for adults. The movie is in the list of one of the most saddest movie endings. The movie is mostly known in Korea because the movie is just about a normal thing that happens everyday, we eat fish, and fish get caught and put into tanks in fish restaurants. The special thing is that this movie is representing that, but in a fish's view. Yes it is very sad. I dont like how this youtube video is making this movie seem like a dark stupid movie. It's a great movie. You should watch it.

Also, sometimes salt makes muscles twitch (look up any video of like, squid tentacles reacting to, I think soy sauce, despite being very much dead they twitch and writhe cause of how the salt reacts with it). I've help clean fish for eating and I can confirm that despite being very very dead, they did give the occasional twitch when I started cutting in.

It has killed a lot of starving people actually. They were starving, then they get saved so they eat a lot of food. More that they can digest with the little bit of energy they have left so they die.

I think Padak was a important movie. In every movie everything good happens to the main character. They never die, but thats not how life works. Good people can die and I think more movies need to showcase that.

Definitely a movie that goes hard on the sense of powerlessness and helplessness. Seeing the ocean but knowing they'll die trying to get there, or die hiding in a cramped tank, or die being cut up on a board... pretty bleak. If you anthropomorphise and humanise animals, then as well as empathising with their suffering, you have to accept that what they do to each other is brutal. Imagine an antelope begging for mercy as lions tear it apart for an hour, while its family watch on from the top of a hill.

I'd watched the movie immediately after watching this, and turns out Padak only went hog-wild on the clown fish, because she wasn't eating in the tank, and was ravenously hungry, so she lost her mind in a fit of hunger and ate the smaller fish in desperation. Plus food chain reference or something, cause clownfish are prey items to larger fish breeds.

no bad ending, just a bittersweet one Padak died, but the Master had a change of heart and was the one that ended up escaping

I think the ending is great. Padak and spotty being red herrings (hehe) but their hope and dedication eventually changed the most cynical and and lost fish among them to finally give it his all to escape the only hell he's ever known. I didn't think "he left those other fish in the tank to die", I thought that now those fish might also have hope of one day escaping.

I remember watching this movie as a kid. I was at a playmate's house with like 5 other kids. My mom found this movie from a korean website for us to watch thinking it is a sweet kids movie because of the poster. I was mildly surprised to see how gruesome it is but I watched it to the very end. It had no subtitles so I couldn't understand what the characters were saying. As a result, this movie wasn't memorable to me despite how dark it is. It wasn't until I saw this video that I suddenly remember watching this film.
