I have to say that the twilight love presented by the famous Korean cartoonist Jiang Cao's "I Love You" subverts my cognition of love, and has always been very arbitrary to think that love is the attachment of young people, the numbness and boredom of touching the right hand with the left hand in middle age, and the endless nagging of stumbling after old age. However, the twilight love in the ginger grass brush truly expresses the true meaning of love, that is: love occurs regardless of age; The temperature of love, regardless of the years.
Jiang Cao's "I Love You" takes four old people as the main line, telling about their intertwined family affection and love, it is said that after the TV series adapted from the comic was released in South Korea and China, it once triggered people's deep thinking about love and family affection, among which "some love, only death can cut it off, and some love, it can transcend life and death" The classic phrase "made many people deeply moved by the sad sunset love of the four old people, it is no exaggeration to say that many people learned love and responsibility from this comic book with tears.
"I Love You" tells the story of the old man who delivered milk on the snowy ramp met the old lady who collected the waste, and each of them carried a hard life in the first half of their lives, the old man went his own way when he was young, had a short temper, and did not feel guilty until his wife died of illness; And the old lady was abandoned in the corner of the city by her beloved man when she was young, and after the death of her child, she was unmarried until she was old, and she worked hard to survive by picking up garbage. Such two elderly people meet in the silent streets of the early hours of the morning, and the lonely and difficult life makes them gradually get closer and care for each other. Under the needle of the old man and granddaughter, the throbbing like first love germinated in the hearts of the two old men.
Another love of the elderly couple shown in the book is that the parking lot keeper Lao Zhang, who has been patiently watching over his wife with Alzheimer's. Until one day, Lao Zhang learned that his wife was terminally ill and witnessed her painful episodes again and again, and Lao Zhang, who was like a knife, made the sad decision to commit suicide together.
Two dusk loves, full of strong love and romance, the friendship between the four elderly people is simple and pure, the roar of the motorcycle motor that came out at 4 a.m. on time has become the "wake-up alarm" of everyone on the street, a hairpin, a pair of gloves, and a street lamp have become the most textured emotional expression of the elderly.
It turns out that true love requires experiencing romance in youth, regret in middle age, and silent mutual silence precipitated by time after old age, even at the end of life, you must persistently take each other's hands and tell him: "I'm a coward, without you, I'm afraid I can't live." You hold my hand, we will see you again in the next life."
In this fast-paced society, we often neglect the most precious people and things around us. "I Love You" reminds us with warm stories and sincere emotions that love should not only exist in our youth, but should accompany us throughout our lives until the end of life.
Li Bai once said, "The situation does not treat people, and the hair must be made into silk", life is only once, it is short and easy to die, there is no time to regret, there is no time to sigh, there is no time to recall. Why not cherish the people in front of you, enjoy the healthy, stable, happy and worry-free time of "standing with you at dusk at leisure, laughing and asking for porridge in front of the stove", and then, in the final stage of life, let sincere love save us from fear and loneliness in old age, let us regenerate, and give us the courage to face death together, which is perhaps the most important and valuable message of "I Love You".
