Two lonely people, but gradually attracted to each other, step by step fell in love...
▲ Stills from the movie "Love Parasite"
As can be seen from the stills that have been made public, Sasaki (Naina Komatsu), who wears headphones as armor, artificially cuts off contact with the world and walks on the road like this, and Takasaka (Hayashi Shudo) in a similar situation will have a date with the purpose of adapting to modern society. The two men rode on their backs to the sunset, and the distance between them gradually shortened, getting closer and closer.
Lin Shudu and Komatsu Nai Nai are the descendants of the same firm, and this is also the first time the two have cooperated. Two people fall in love because of "worms", and the true feelings and falsehoods are intertwined. For the actor, it is a great challenge to fully interpret this. Both Komatsu and Hayashi discussed the plot many times during filming, encouraging and supporting each other while jointly formulating performance plans. (Yuzu/Translation)
