Recently, I have been watching the Korean drama "Funny Family", and apart from other factors, this drama alone is still very worth watching.
Today I'm going to share the episode I feel the most about blooming.
The main content of this episode is that Ms. Luo Wenji is full of flowers every spring when the flowers are in full bloom and goes out with her companions.
But in the play, Luo Wenji is the grandmother of the Li family, responsible for the daily diet and living of the family of 7 people, as well as the eating preferences of the guest gang of about 1-4 people, and also takes care of the son of the younger son, Junxi.
As a housewife, Luo Wenji's daily work is complex and workload, often having to juggle multiple tasks at the same time.
The life of the Li family is inseparable from Luo Wenji every day, and once Grandma Wenji got angry and went to her eldest brother's house to hide, and the Li family was confused.
The Li family, especially Grandpa Li Shuncai, has a deep opinion on this. Many times, when Grandma Wenji was playing with her companions, she took Grandma home for various reasons, and also warned Grandma Wenji with a little jealousy not to laugh and have fun with the old men.
Later, Grandma Wenji explained the reason why she loved spring and went out to play desperately.
After the family listened, they were quite emotional, and Grandpa Shuncai understood Grandma Wenji's intentions, gave Grandma Wenji a sum of money, and wrote down words of encouragement.
Grandma Wen Ji was very relieved to see the warm words, and called Yongji's mother again and went on a spring tour together.
At this point in the story, the episode ends.
The early stage is funny and funny, the middle is moving, and the ending is warm and real. The entire plot transition is smooth and natural, but it loses no time in telling the meaning behind it, which is impressive.
As a general comedy viewer, I think this is the best interpretation of the saying "the core of comedy is tragedy".
On the other hand, the comedies of mainland entertainment, especially the sketches, do not know when they have become happy and sad. The plot is blunt, and there are many components of using network strips. In the past, sketches were made of buzzwords, but now they are the complete opposite. The audience was also mostly embarrassed. The ending is sensational, as if the previous jokes are just for comparison.
The key to previous sketches is irony, contradiction or misunderstanding. Works of irony can pinpoint the shortcomings of the times; works with contradictory themes can be close to reality and resonate with the audience; works that misunderstand the theme can grab the audience's eyeballs and psychology, and the ending is profound.
I'm just an ordinary person, not a comedy insider. The primary purpose of watching comedy is to be comfortable and joyful, and to forget about the troubles in real life for a while. Educational works deserve praise and support, but any literary and artistic work must first be popular with the people.
If you watch a comedy and it is even more sad to watch it, it is better to look at your meager income, high housing prices, confused life...
Isn't the tragedy-centered embarrassing comedy satirizing the audience itself?
