"I don't want to be friends with Choi Hung, I can't do it, but he seems to be able to."
"That Year, Our Summer" aired to the 10th episode, how many netizens followed Yan Xiu to shed tears?
At first, Nagging really just wanted to watch one episode, but when he looked at it, he unconsciously cried and laughed. Although the love of cats, cats, dogs and dogs has gradually become the entanglement of cats and "two bears", and the mother's family shouts that Yan Xiu simply and the male er Zhixiong are good, but as a Korean drama with no. 2 in the Douban global word-of-mouth ranking, "That Year" still makes you want to stop in the love-hate interweaving.
Imagine when you have a "dog-like" boyfriend, well-behaved and cute, obedient and sensible, and don't be too happy! And when you have a "cat-like" girlfriend, handsome and cool and cold, careful and intimate is a bit stronger. Although it is not so docile and cute, it is just in tune.
Doesn't that feel good?
Choi Woo-sik Kim Do-mi is the second partner, goodbye is no longer a brother and sister
Choi Woo-sik and Kim Do-mi, once collaborated in the movie "Witch". The unique affection and bondage between the two also makes the story line full and complete.
Many netizens who have bumped the CP of the two people have also made a ridiculous statement: Just when I was sure that the two could be together, Kim Duomei slapped Cui Yuzhi with a slap and fainted!
Who would have thought that Jin Duomei, who had innocent faces written on her face at the beginning, was actually a black girl with full ability. But because of the different positions, her and Choi Woo-sik's rivalry is destined to be only fighting and killing.
Kim Yoon-jin, the director who is crazy for the witch CP, because she likes the partnership of two people too much, so when she started filming "That Year, Our Summer", there was only one hard requirement, that is, the male and female protagonists must be Kim Do-mi and Choi Woo-sik.
In fact, Kim Do-mi and Choi Woo-sik agreed to shoot precisely because each other agreed to star. This kind of two-way rushing feelings is really too good to stumble!
Unlike the cool film setting of "Witch", "That Year, Our Summer" is more like a simple love story that thanks for youth and cherishes the present.
Its appearance makes the audience feel a sense of relaxation in the love drama for a long time, and there is no need to mention realistic issues such as age, marriage and childbearing, but about throbbing, memories and time. Love is a videotape, the light that comes out of the gaps in the leaves, the salt that is sprinkled on each other after five years.
The love between Choi Woong (Choi Woo-sik) and Kok Yeon-so (Kim Do-mi) is not so smooth sailing, nor is it so beautiful. Lovers who broke up after five years of dating met again because of an event.
When they met again, Cui Xiong not only sprayed water on the face of his former girlfriend, but also sprinkled salt to help him when the other party left. These seemingly childish and excessive behaviors, Cui Xiong practiced hundreds of times. Even after five years of breaking up, he had never seen Guo Yanxiu, and he had not forgotten to practice.
And the reason why he was so obsessed with practicing was probably because he believed that the two of them would meet again one day. In fact, Cui Xiong never let go of the relationship he once had.
In this relationship, Cui Xiong and Guo Yanxiu are strong people, obviously very concerned about each other, Ming Ming love is not good, but always can reply to each other with the most indifferent tone. Not because they weren't firm enough, but because they were all tempting.
After the age of youth and madness, without the blood that once boiled, the two of them knew better than anyone that love was never the whole of life.
This kind of helplessness in real life is also the most moving appearance interpreted by film and television dramas for the first time.
Strong women and weak men? In fact, they are all the same losers
If you have to do a simple combing for the characters, it is not difficult to find that Choi Xiong and Guo Yanxiu are two people who exist in different worlds.
Cui Xiong has a lazy personality, and his favorite thing to do is to lie in bed and watch the sunrise and then watch the sunset. From childhood to adulthood, I was very introverted and did not like to learn, so my grades always counted down.
He grew up living in the love of his parents, even if the grades are poor, even if there is no pursuit, even if he is confused about the future, it does not matter. Because he has a family and a way out, even if he doesn't do anything, he is still the best child in the eyes of his parents and can still enjoy life.
Guo Yanxiu is a very strong girl, and she has done everything she has identified since she was a child. Keeping the first in the class all year round, you can have no friends, but you must not lose your dignity.
Relying on her grandmother since she was a child, she is extremely lacking in love, and she very much hopes to be recognized by others, and she also hopes that she will be able to get rid of her sad fate one day.
After graduating from college, she couldn't wait to devote herself to her work. Not because she doesn't want to study, but because she doesn't want to go out of money to pay for her medical bills when she's sick, and she wants to provide a better living environment for grandma.
The reason why Guo Yanxiu chose to break up with Cui Xiong was not because the other party was not good enough, nor because she did not love each other enough, but because she did not want Cui Xiong to see through the strong inferiority of herself.
"What you desperately pursue is only what others can get at your fingertips", the reality and coldness of this sentence also make Guo Yanxiu retreat in front of love. She once wanted evenly matched love, but became a deserter in her feelings.
And Cui Xiong, the boy who loves Yanxiu more than he loves himself, is always childishly reluctant to say his love. Even if Guo Yanxiu repeatedly tempted, he stubbornly did not like to express.
This shyness about love finally made him lose Guo Yanxiu's persistence. He can obviously say it, he can obviously express it well. However, he always thought that the other party understood, but ignored the feeling when Guo Yanxiu was eager to get an answer.
So, even in the five years they've been in a relationship, there's joy, there's joy, there's arguments, there's love. But in the end, the two people were separated. Standing in the past relationship and looking back at the present, the two people at that time were losers in love.
When love approaches again, the loser becomes the winner
Choi Woong and Guo Yanxiu, who had to cooperate again to make a documentary because of their work, once again broke into each other's lives. The feelings of the two people are also a lot more possible at this moment.
It's like joy, loss, embarrassment, reluctance... A cup of bubble American style bumped into ice cubes, with a strange taste but a strong aftertaste. Complex emotions drain memories of summer, and the mist of water that punctures the bubbles works together with sunlight that crosses the gaps in the leaves, forming a rainbow of pigments that are diluted as faint as ever.
From the initial awkwardness, sadness, and discomfort, to slowly accepting the existence of the other party. The shots interspersed together in reality and memory are more like helping the two recall their former love.
And the questions that the two of them did not dare to face, or that seemed childish, were finally answered one day when they grew up. In fact, love has never disappeared, but they were once, not good at expressing, stubborn pride.
Cui Xiong has been insomnia for many years because he cannot walk out of his emotional life. Guo Yanxiu, on the other hand, because of his single social life, has never been able to find the object of his conversation and can only digest himself. Both of them were licking themselves, hoping to wait until the day the wound healed.
But in the end, I found that the only medicine that could make me sunny and happy was the other party. Cui Xiong, who is attached to sleeping pills to fall asleep, has a good night's sleep quietly for the first time because of the appearance of Guo Yanxiu.
And guo yanxiu, who was asked by Cui Xiong again, was finally willing to face his heartache in recent years, and for the first time he shed tears in front of people.
Yes, Guo Yanxiu is Cui Xiong's best sleeping pill, and Cui Xiong is Guo Yanxiu's best umbrella. How can two people who need each other like this let go of each other's hands?
On the last day of the forced trip, in the pouring rain, Cui Xiong once again returned to Guo Yanxiu's side. As he said, at the moment when Guo Yanxiu appeared, he seemed to have decided that he would continue to fall in love with the girl in front of him, and then repeat the love without hesitation.
Yes, no matter who can not replace the love, only the former protagonist can make up for the time. Going around in his feelings, Cui Xiong will still be pulled by Guo Yanxiu.
He had never thought about how to live, but in order to bring a sense of security to Guo Yanxiu, he tried to explore a balance between hobbies and work. When he really made money with paintings, there was no one around him.
I believe this is also why, after Guo Yanxiu reappears, he will often be nervous and uneasy, obviously in the eyes of others, he is a cold, boring and even a little cold existence, but as soon as he meets her, he begins to mess with himself.
There are not so many thrilling life and death, it is a very daily and ordinary love. But it's really good, and a multi-angle narrative will make people have more different feelings, even mundane things can make people empathize.
Comparing more elements and setting more film and television works, "That Year, Our Summer" is more prosaic in terms of storyline, characters, and main line, but it carries the sincerity that many film and television works do not have.
From falling in love to getting married, from high school to college to work, from falling in love and breaking up to meeting again, this process is the love that many people are experiencing, or have experienced. The only constant is that the person who loves you goes around and reunites like some kind of fate.
Just as Choi Hung began practicing sprinkling salt and spraying water, he always believed that Guo Yanxiu would return to his side. Perhaps, like most people, he is ashamed to express his feelings.
After the precipitation of time, he was finally able to grow. This time, he plucked up the courage to express his love to Guo Yanxiu - although he saw that the netizens behind him would also be confused, who is Yanxiu's soul mate, can the broken mirror be reunited? (If you can't, you may already be on the way to beat up the screenwriter)
But Nagging still believes that the incomprehension and grievances of the past will eventually become relief and re-encounter with a better each other. The moment when the dog meets the cat is "That Year, Our Summer".
