Sex and nudity in Miracle: Letters to the President

Light and non-sexual: a single, mildly suggestive private moment where the hero quickly closes a book when his sister enters his bedroom; no nudity or explicit sexual activity (IMDb Parents Guide notes this brief scene).

Violence and gore in Miracle: Letters to the President

Mild-to-moderate physical peril focused on train-related danger and accidental injuries — no graphic violence. There are several tense near-miss moments on the railway where commuters step aside as trains pass and at least one brief on-screen trip/bruise; scenes are played realistically and can be frightening but are non-graphic.

Language in Miracle: Letters to the President

Mild. Occasional coarse words and raised voices in arguments or tense scenes; profanity is infrequent and not pervasive (IMDb Parents Guide lists only mild profanity).

Drugs, alcohol, and smoking in Miracle: Letters to the President

Moderate. Multiple scenes show adults drinking alcohol (social drinking and at least one intoxicated character) and some smoking; substance use is visible and influences a few scenes, though it isn't glamorized.

Mature themes in Miracle: Letters to the President

Moderate emotional themes: poverty, community neglect, civic frustration, and family responsibility (Joon-kyung's drive to help his sister and neighbors). The plot centers on grassroots activism — repeated letter-writing to the President, local bureaucracy, and the social cost of living by active train tracks.
