"The blind pursuit of goodness and benevolence can only be exchanged for false glory."
Song Hye Kyo's revenge is like the first sandstorm of spring.
Wen Dong-eun, who has endured for several years, finally sent the bullying group led by Yeonjin to hell. At the grave of the dead Yoon Chao-hee, she said, "Time has finally moved forward, congratulations on the age of 19 and I are both 19 years old."
Regarding "revenge", the two popular male characters of "Dark Glory" had a conversation:
Ha Daoying: "Are you helping her take revenge?" Then you should stop her. ”
Zhu Ruzheng: "You have to find these to get back to the starting point." I support her in returning to her beginning. ”
Don also said to his fellow bullied companions, "Don't act rashly, this is our opportunity to save ourselves back then." ”
Can revenge save a person? Like asking if bullying others makes you happy? None of them are right. True salvation comes from the inside out, and even if the revenge is successful, Donn does not reach self-consistency with his inner self. So the scene where Song Huiqiao is on the rooftop is the initial ending that Dongen set for himself.
The psychological strength that supported her survival was not the success of revenge, but her discovery that "now I finally find that I also have a very good group of adults around me."
Who are those people? It was Mr. Officer, whom she had been docking with, who said to her after understanding the ins and outs, I should have listened to you say this, even though it was 18 years late. It is the landlord aunt who once agreed with her to "die in the spring", recognized her on the first side after the reunion, and took the initiative to block her biological mother's entanglement for her. Donn asked, "Why do you say I don't live here?" The landlord said, "At least someone has to be on your side to support you." It was the aunt who had always volunteered for her to "drive", praising her "you laugh really beautifully" ... The weak united as an alliance, and those who did not dare to resist gave the stormtroopers strength.
Because you saved me, you have saved you in my place.
Looking at Dong Eun's idea of revenge, he disintegrates Yeonjin's world from the three perspectives of "family affection", "husband and wife" and "friendship". Compared with the roar and madness of the bullying group, Don's revenge can be called a calm and elegant art. She calculates the human heart.
Family affection – Dong-eun gives Yeon-jin's mother a choice between defending her own interests and helping her daughter, and this mother of course chooses to save herself first. Without her mother's protection, Yeonjin is just a giant baby. She shouted her mother's name in prison, but the other party never looked back. Dong-eun's biological mother is the perpetrator of her own pain, and now Yeon-jin has tasted this taste.
Husband and wife, Dong Eun, let Ha Do-young know Yeon-jin's past, and his daughter's biological father is Jeon Jae-joon. The blue packaging bag that Yeonjin mentioned home in Ha Doying's eyes was a green hat. Ha Do-young took her daughter away to England and did not accept Yeon-jin's letters, and the upper-class marriage she maintained failed.
What is Yeonjin's marriage truth? Ha Do-young married her because she dressed little and more expensive among the three blind dates. (Wearing less means high availability, expensive means a good life) There was no true feeling. She herself is divided between "Good Wife and Good Mother" and "Cheating and Cheating". Her marriage plays too high.
Friends - dead death, wounded wounds, dog eats dog hair. It is necessary to mention a golden sentence of the film review of "Dark Glory" here, "More lively than Gu Li's birthday is Sun Mingwu's funeral."
The revenge performed by Song Hye Kyo shattered the foundation that built Yeonjin's world, and she even became the target of bullying in prison, and wanted to broadcast the weather for them. She made her see clearly how hypocritical the glory she was in, how vain her superiority was, she was just an ant under the laws of the elite in her mouth rather than a dominator, so she could only bully people who were weaker than herself. Dongen may be bullied because of her beauty, and Zhaoxi may be bullied because she is jealous, the essence is because they are seemingly weak people.
Without her mother, without her mother's "gunman", Yeonjin is a person who has no way to fight back. 18-year-old Yoon Chao-hee has long seen Yeon-jin's "vulnerability," she once said, "Because I'm not afraid of you anymore, I'm afraid of your family's money." I decided to forgive you because I am a better person than you. ”
Yeon-jin's every loss of control is due to self-esteem and superiority, but she herself has not thought about "why" she is so unscrutinized. She gets used to surviving with the "laws of darkness", and as a result she becomes one of those symbols that goes with the flow.
Yeon-jin's Law
1. As soon as we respond, it is announced to the world, and not responding is the best choice.
2. Someone dies, it was yesterday's thing, and today is to do today's thing.
3. I don't need to have dreams, I'll just pay them when they realize their dreams.
4. Where we need friends at this age, we only need accomplices.
So Don'en's revenge is an almost perfect revenge.
The object of her revenge includes her mother. Cutting the mat with the original family, many people can't do it, but the woman played by Song Huiqiao did it, and she sent her mother to a mental hospital. Because she doesn't call her "mother," it's just "another curling iron that can burn me."
Dong-eun's mother can reconcile with Yeon-jin for money. For the sake of profit, Donn can be allowed to lose his job. In the face of her daughter's disobedience, she even wanted to set fire to her and cut her face, and the mother and daughter died together. She always regarded her daughter as an accessory that she could manipulate, ignoring all her emotions and rights as a person.
In "Dark Glory 2", Song Huiqiao's acting peak moment is to cry sadly, "How can you collude with the woman who ruined my life?" How can you abandon me again? You are my first perpetrator. You are not allowed to laugh. Finally she said, "Mom, thank you for not changing at all." ”
There are many mirror comparisons in Dark Glory:
Father: The showdown between the two fathers.
Accomplices: Dong Eun and Zhu Ruzheng, Yeon's mother and the police. Zhu Ruzheng said, "I just made the choice to be your accomplice," and they bonded with emotion. And Yeon-jin's mother and her accomplices are maintained by a profit trade.
Mother and daughter: Dong Eun and mother, Yeonjin and mother, aunt and daughter.
In the mother-daughter group, the family relationship between the aunt played by Lian Huilan and her daughter Shanya is the most moving. Her husband has been drinking, gambling, and domestic violence for many years, and his wife and daughter have beaten him, and she and Don make a deal to kill her husband as a bargaining chip. The daughter is the only happiness in her tragic life.
In front of his daughter, who was beaten and bruised, Hyunnam cried and said, "My daughter is good, kind, and elegant." Is it because of my own name and did not spend money to find someone to name her, will her life be so bitter? And the daughter comforted her, Mom, do you remember what movie I said I hate the most?
"I hate tear gas the most."
The escape journey of mother and daughter turned into a rare trip. The daughter was surprised that her mother could actually race and said that you are so cool! And put on the single of his favorite idol in the car.
Because Hyunnam has a bright future with her daughter in her heart, she also has the romantic ideal that ordinary women still do not give up in their hot lives. While beaten by her husband, she said, "I'm going to wear red lipstick, I'm going to wear a leather jacket, I'm going to a far away country, and I'm going to go around on the road and never look back." "Every scene in Hyunnam is a "queen".
"Dark Glory" is full of opposition, rich and poor, doctors and patients, employers and employees, husbands and wives, these various social relations have evolved into the relationship between "perpetrator" and "victim" because of the breakdown of balance. "Dark Glory" portrays the eternal unrepentant side of the perpetrator.
For example, Yeon-jin, who reunited years later and learned that Dong-eun had become a teacher, her first reaction was, "You should thank me, right?" If it weren't for me, you wouldn't be a teacher." For example, Hyunnam's husband, after beating his wife, chose a floral dress for her, and planned a trip abroad, as if forgetting his fists and feet. For example, the villain who killed Zhu Ruzheng's father was full of malice and tortured the teenager with letters for years. In the end, they all deserved it. "Dark Glory" makes people feel in awe of the word "human heart". The perpetrator turns around and becomes the victim.
Don's headwind reversal is pleasant, and more people in real life have silently tolerated it. Dong Eun can't bear that the bullying group "forgets" herself, but she also really wishes that she never remembered Yeonjin or the bullying she suffered. If she were back at 18, she wouldn't want this perfect revenge.
