I want to be a neighbor of Toshimi Kobayashi Wen/Amei

　　One of the happiest things lately is watching the new drama "Forest Homestay" starring Satomi Kobayashi. In each episode, the hostess of the homestay, Toshimi Kobayashi, receives a new guest.

　　In the impression, Satomi Kobayashi in the film and television works seems to have been opening a store. The earliest one, of course, was 2006's "Seagull Canteen".

　　At the beginning of the movie, in distant Helsinki, the seagull canteen she opened has not been open for more than a month, and passers-by are just curious to look at this calm Asian woman inside from the large glass window, until one day, finally, the first guest walks in, then the second, the third... The story unfolds faintly.

　　After that, it is 2013's "Bread and Soup and Cat Good Weather", in this short drama with only four episodes, the heroine experienced the sudden death of her mother, was maliciously transferred to the company, resigned to open a shop, was told by her mother's friends about the identity of a biological father she had never seen before, and she also had a half-brother she had never met... Even I was taken aback by the list, these plots put into the hands of Korean screenwriters, enough to produce thirty episodes of sadness and joy. But "Bread and Soup and Good Weather for Cats" is a drama with a peaceful atmosphere, and in retrospect, I only remember that the heroine has been walking, cooking, opening a shop, chatting with guests and neighbors, and the kittens upstairs crouching at the window, like its owner, quiet and silent.

　　One of the hot topics of discussion on the Internet lately is whether to step out of your comfort zone. Most of the dramas starring Toshimi Kobayashi can actually be described as "walking into the comfort zone", which can be determined that there will be no dog blood plot, and even if there is, it will be handled lightly. Just like in "The Lonely Foodie", the audience never has to worry about Mr. Inokashita Going to the wrong restaurant and eating unappetizing food. This sense of security should also be one of the charms of Japanese healing film and television.

　　Slightly different from the previous two, this latest "Forest Homestay" has a little bit of fantasy color, the first episode was scared by the dog barking to half death Mr. Fox Spirit, the fifth episode wearing a hospital suit suddenly appeared at the door of the homestay's ex-boyfriend, although not pointed, but he suddenly disappeared after thinking about his words and deeds in this episode, it is inevitable to have a sad association: "He is only afraid that he is no longer there." There is also Saki Makoto, who appears at the end of each episode but does not say a word, which seems to have nothing to do with the plot, but like Michael Kane forever in Nolan's movies, Satomi Kobayashi is missing this old lady, and the audience will be lost if I really am.

　　In these film and television dramas, the typical image of Toshimi Kobayashi is always similar: she is independent and has no family around her. She seemed simple, quiet and not much, always cleaning up the room and wiping the dishes, occasionally sitting under the porch with a cup of tea. But every viewer understands that behind this simplicity is the vicissitudes, as it is said in "The Three-Body Problem": a photo of an empty sky contains an order of magnitude larger than the amount of information in "Qingming on the River".

　　Who wouldn't want to be a neighbor to Toshimi Kobayashi? In distant Helsinki, drink a cup of coffee with cinnamon rolls brewed by her mysterious incantation, open the bright large glass doors in the alleys of Tokyo, always have fragrant bread with vegetable soup, and in the tree-lined mountains, her homestay can set up a tent in the living room, talk to her under the porch, or burn her past memories.

　　In the final episode of "Forest Homestay", Toshimi Kobayashi generously gives the key to the homestay to the daughter of an old guest, and once again walks away with her bag. Just six episodes, really unfinished. Believe she will go to another corner of the world, put down her bags, open a new store, open a store that is good, can not be her neighbor, but also willing to be her guest, at least, we have had the privilege of being her audience, watching her chat, clean, cook, smile, quietly out of mind, watch a hundred episodes without problems.
