Love + soul crossing + reverse crossing + suspense.
Thailand burns the brain, the whole process of notes.
Taiwan drama has made a big move again.
Taipei, KTV.
Today is Huang Yuxuan's 27th birthday.
"Yu Xuan, happy 27th birthday, make a wish soon.".
"My first wish is that everyone will perform well this year and receive a full year-end bonus."
"My second wish is that everyone be healthy and safe."
"Third, rest assured."
"Well, my third wish...."
The moment you finish blowing out the candle, you appear in front of you.
If you are not.
Then I'd rather cross time and space.
Because.
"I Want to See You".
In 2019, taiwan dramas are really amazing.
March, "Our Distance from Evil."
This year's only Chinese 9.5.
The content is adult, and many adults can't accept it.
In August, "The Cultivation of Ordinary Women".
In the past 13 years, Huashi has had the best ratings for self-made dramas.
With sincere and grounded emotions, it has warmed the hearts of countless people.
November, end of the year.
Still not idle, and play bigger.
"I want to see you", with a score of 8.0, rose to 9.1 after a month.
Genre, idol drama.
I know, you have to ask a question about what?
Why can other people's idol dramas score 9 points, while ours can only hover at 4 points?
Is it inclusion?
You think too much, don't forget, "Sin Dreamer", which is known as "Netflix's first Chinese drama", has been beaten by us.
Let's look at the lineup first.
Produced by FOX and directed by Huang Tianren.
Yes, even if he succeeds, he also loses Huang Tianren.
The heroine, known as "Little Guilun Magnesium", has starred in "Blood Guanyin" and won the Queen of Admiralty with "Must Marry a Woman".
The male protagonist is the surprise fished out of the dumb "Sin Dreamer", the walking hormone Xu Guanghan.
In the old work "Hijira", which was turned over, it became a veritable "salt boy".
Okay, let's follow the showrunner.
Back to the very beginning.
Why can a Taiwan puppet rank among the 9-point dramas?
Their looks?
Sweet and greasy plot?
Neither.
The most important thing is the high-energy reversal that pierces the soul.
Just let the time machine twist and listen to the song into their world.
Last Dance & China Blue - The End of Love
01 Love sadomasochism?
In 2019.
Her name is Huang Yuxuan (Ke Jiahui).
His name is Wang Yisheng (Xu Guanghan).
They were together for 7 years and their love story was sweet.
This sweetness begins with confession.
Not long after going to college, the two people had just met, and Wang Yisheng said to Huang Yuxuan——
"I like you, it has nothing to do with how long we have known each other, I liked you deeply before you knew me." 」
Sounds very dirty, but very easy to use.
The two naturally walked together.
Like all couples, Wang Yisheng will buy Huang Yuxuan what she loves to eat, and will also take the bus together and listen to concerts.
Huang Yuxuan has a personality and an opinion.
And Wang Yisheng is a little naughty.
Therefore, their daily routine is that Wang Yisheng will make Huang Yuxuan angry and coax him from time to time.
If it is an outsider, it may be annoying, but it is a pleasure in couples.
At night, do something shameful in the sheets.
From college to graduation to entry into the workforce, they had a really good time.
Moreover, since the age of 20, Wang Yisheng has changed the law every year to prepare a birthday surprise for Huang Yuxuan.
Never absent.
Until one day, an air crash took Wang Yisheng's life, and the body was not found.
When Huang Yuxuan was 26 years old.
Even though two years have passed, Huang Yuxuan still can't walk out.
To outsiders, she doesn't look like she's been emotionally injured, either going to play or go to the movies on weekends.
But in fact, everything she sent was a place where memories had been left before.
It's not so much about sharing life as it is about wanting to show someone.
Due to excessive thoughts, it seems that he can always be seen in a flash.
Once possessed, she felt that the world was big and that her future could be without him.
Only when I lost it did I feel the taste of suffocation.
Not to mention, he also accidentally knew that Wang Yisheng was about to propose to her.
Man is dead, and only regret remains.
I'd love to go to one more favorite concert with him.
And all this, until Huang Yuxuan received an anonymous package after attending Wang Yisheng's memorial service, a earth-shattering change occurred.
There's a tape in the package with their favorite song —
Wu Bai's "LAST DANCE"
Listening to songs, sitting on the bus, my mind is full of the past.
Just as the bus was passing through the tunnel, suddenly...
Don't speculate.
And a couple.
In 1998.
Her name is Chen Yunru.
His name is Li Ziwei.
There is also a him, named Mo Junjie.
The three of them were ordinary high school students.
Although in a high school, I didn't know each other at first.
Until Li Ziwei and Mo Junjie came to Chen Yunru's "32 Record Line" where she worked.
Li Ziwei said that he wanted Wu Bai's "The End of Love" record, but unfortunately it was temporarily out of stock, and Li Ziwei, who had a ulterior motive, left a phone and let him call him after arriving.
So they came and went, plus Li Ziwei and Mo Junjie were originally good buddies, and the three became friends.
However, in a threesome, there must be a love triangle.
They are no exception.
Chen Yunru was gloomy and inferior, silent, had no friends, and even her family did not want to see her.
On the contrary, Li Ziwei is sunny and cheerful, like a small sun.
And Mo Junjie is the kind of ordinary warm man, well, you know.
Well, the mind arrow is clear at a glance, Mo Junjie → Chen Yunru → Li Ziwei.
Moreover, after Li Ziwei and Mo Junjie gave Chen Yunru his 17th birthday, Chen Yunru confessed to Li Ziwei.
Unsurprisingly, Li Ziwei refused, they were just friends.
Chen Yunru, who was originally lost, returned home, but saw that the home was turned over in a mess, and her mother seemed to have taken her brother away.
The collapsed Chen Yunru ran to the street, and suddenly...
Seeing this, the playwright believes that many people have already found out and called out in surprise.
That's right.
Huang Yuxuan and Chen Yunru looked the same.
Wang Yisheng and Li Ziwei look the same.
It looks the same, but the name is different.
And it's a difference of 11 years.
What's going on?
02 Brain-burning suspense?
When Chen Yunru woke up again, in the hospital.
Gauze was tied to his head and seemed to be badly injured.
Sitting next to the bed was Li Ziwei.
As soon as we opened our mouths, we knew that she was no longer her.
Because she called him, "Wang Yisheng.".
Only In Huang Yuxuan's world, Wang Yisheng was thinking of him.
At this point, the high-level point of this 8-point love drama slowly appeared.
Soul wear.
That is to say, Huang Yuxuan came to 1998, Chen Yunru's body.
And have double memories at the same time.
One was from Huang Yuxuan, and the other was Chen Yunru herself.
However, because the crossing was so sudden, she wasn't sure which memory was real.
People around her told her that her name was Chen Yunru.
Injured by a sharp object.
The murderer is unknown.
When Chen Yunru was discharged from the hospital, everything seemed to return to its original state.
However, it seems to be a little different.
Although the girl in front of her still looks like this, it seems to have changed as a person.
Chen Yun was as shy as a promise, and was shy to speak.
But when you wake up, you are generous and cheerful, energetic, and your whole body is shining with attractive light.
Li Ziwei seemed to be slowly falling in love with this girl.
Huang Yuxuan also gradually adapted to Chen Yunru's life.
But, just when she began to think that the memory on the other end was just a dream, she suddenly woke up in 2019.
Seeing this, everyone should understand that this is not only a crossing, but also a reverse crossing.
And Chen Yunru's uncle's words made Huang Yuxuan even more surprised at the same time.
Sure enough, it was all true, and the two girls intersected in the darkness and exchanged souls.
Surprisingly, Chen Yunru no longer exists, and xiao Chinese New Year's Eve died in 1999 to be precise.
Not an accident, but a murder.
Love, crossing, and now it's on the third level, suspense.
At the same time as telling Huang Yuxuan this, Chen Yunru's uncle also gave her a diary, which was Chen Yunru's, in other words, the two of them in common.
Huang Yuxuan, who had given up looking for Wang Yisheng and was preparing to transfer to Shanghai, accidentally saw a sentence when he looked through his notebook: He was Wang Yisheng.
Who wrote this sentence?
Yourself?
Or what did Chen Yunru find?
Wanted to see him, very much wanted to see him.
In order to confirm, Huang Yuxuan made a second crossing.
Leaning back on the couch, with headphones on, listening to familiar music....
Woke up again, past.
Everything is not a dream.
And, in 1998 time and space.
Huang Yuxuan found that Li Ziwei and Wang Quansheng were increasingly related.
Not only are the pranks exactly the same.
Even the lame excuses for rejecting girls who don't like them are exactly the same.
"I can't be with someone with the last name X, the fortune teller said, so I'll live."
Does this mean that Li Ziwei has also crossed?
It's only here that the ambitions of "Want to See You" are truly exposed.
03 Mobius Ring?
At this point, the showrunner can finally boldly say that it is worth 9.1.
It has long jumped out of the puppet that can only love love, but has built a larger concept of love for us.
A Mobius ring.
What is the Mobius Ring?
It looks like a complete timeline, but no matter which point you start from, it seems that you have circled around half a circle, but after continuing to circle half a circle, you will find that you are back to the original point.
A closed loop that never stops.
In the play, Wang Quansheng's engagement ring to Huang Yuxuan was deliberately designed in the shape of a Mobius ring.
And a circle of words engraved on the wedding ring -
“Only if you asked to see me, our meeting would be meaningful to me”
Author, Simone de Beauvoir's "Love Letters Across the Ocean".
It translates to "It only makes sense for us to meet when you also want to see me." ”
So, what is the opportunity to cross?
Is it a Walkman, a song with headphones on, or just a strong "I want to see you" thought?
Intertwined, with no beginning and no end.
In addition to this, there are many details and mysteries worth playing in the play.
For example, 32 that keeps appearing, what does it mean?
For example, the "affectionate" squad leader who is full of "love me, you beep me", why did he appear in 2019 and became Huang Yuxuan's psychologist?
Another example is Chen Yunru.
Not Chen Yunru, who possessed Huang Yuxuan's soul, but the real Chen Yunru.
Did she disappear? Not really.
At the beginning of each episode, she can be seen in a blue cabin.
The cabin seemed to be empty, but she could clearly see Huang Yuxuan and Li Ziwei talking.
The strange thing is that whenever Huang Yuxuan in the picture says a word, Chen Yunru also silently repeats it.
Like, imitating her.
This love story is huang yuxuan and Li Ziwei from beginning to end, and she Chen Yunru does not seem to exist at all.
Can Chen Yunru, who likes Li Ziwei, be willing?
As for more showrunners, there are not many spoilers.
It's too complicated and too top-notch.
Such a large innings, how to go round?
The playwright is looking forward to it. (Note the GIF)
