On May 3, the TV series "Fighting Baggage - Stealing Destiny" can already be watched on the video platform for two episodes. The drama starred Ding Yiyu, Kwon Yu-ri and other actors. Because it is a Korean drama work, the three words "playing baggage" are not easy to understand in the Chinese context. In fact, this is a slang custom, referring to the behavior of some people who enter the house at night and quietly steal the women in the family. In this "Baggage - Stealing Destiny", the male protagonist is a practitioner of this "profession".
At the beginning of the play, the meaning of "hitting baggage" is first interpreted, and a process drama of "hitting baggage" is staged. In this scene, the male protagonist and the supporting actor sneak into the room of a female relative at night, ready to steal a sister-in-law. This sister-in-law had actually prepared earlier, and after bathing and changing clothes, she brought her own baggage and softness. The male protagonist and the supporting actor carried the sister-in-law and left, who knows, met with the attention of two more people. The male protagonist and the two fighters "fight", and the male partner is responsible for the delivery.
It turned out that the person waiting to buy this sister-in-law was a middle-aged man. The sister-in-law and this middle-aged man have long been in love with each other. Due to the restrictions of the feudal etiquette law, the eldest sister-in-law and this middle-aged man could not marry normally. Therefore, the middle-aged man used the way of "baggage" to steal the sister-in-law. Subsequently, the two men performed a simple ceremony of worshiping heaven and earth, and then fulfilled the ceremony of conjugality. In terms of male protagonists and supporting actors, they have received their due bounties.
Later in the plot of "Baggage - Stealing Destiny", the respective lives of the male and female protagonists are shown. In terms of the male protagonist, he has killed his wife and is alone with a child to make a living. Although engaged in the activity of "punching baggage", the male protagonist still has a psychological burden. They work selectively and do not do things that are too contrary to their moral conscience. Therefore, the life of the male protagonist and the supporting actor is very poor.
In terms of the heroine, she is a widowed woman in the courtyard of the deep house. The heroine was originally the daughter of the king, who belonged to the real princess. However, after marrying the son of this famous family, this child died at a young age. Subsequently, the heroine becomes a real widow and has been filial to her for three years. In this process, his little uncle has a "non-divided thought" for the heroine. In the face of feudal etiquette, this kind of thinking can only be non-divided. The little uncle is often reprimanded by his mother-in-law.
The first time the male and female protagonists merged, they went to the temple. The heroine goes to the temple to pay tribute to her husband, who has been dead for three years. When the male protagonist goes to the temple, he meets his abbot master. In the process of meeting, the male protagonist was severely reprimanded by the abbot. Because he didn't do his job, he fought in the downtown area and so on. After being reprimanded, the male protagonist thought bitterly, faced the woods, and meditated. At this time, the heroine passes by him, recalls that he is the person who fights in the city, and then remembers him.
The next story is that the male protagonist is carried by the supporting actor and continues to make the sound of "baggage". The two people mistakenly entered the courtyard of the heroine and "bagged" the heroine. This time, however, the buyer suddenly fell ill and died. Obviously, this was a "perfect" plot-style misunderstanding. As a result, the heroine is stranded in the hero's home. And the child of the male protagonist actually treats the female protagonist as a mother-in-law.
Shocked to hear that the heroine was "bagged", the in-laws did not dare to speak up, because it was a very humiliating thing. Then, the in-laws released words, and the heroine had died, which was a natural death. And the heroine's mother's family can't go back. At this time, the heroine officially became a dead person in the feudal etiquette. For this dead man, how she will carry out her next "destiny" becomes the focus of the narrative. According to the plot trend, the male protagonist's depressed life will be rewritten with the female protagonist.
On the surface, "Baggage - Stealing Destiny" is a costumed love story between a widowed woman and a widowed man, but in fact, it is a dramatization of feudal etiquette. In this TV series, although the heroine has been widowed for three years, she still does not have the freedom to re-fall in love, on the contrary, she needs to continue to be widowed for the dead man until she is old. Deep down, the heroine is eager for freedom and hopes to be able to regain love.
In terms of male protagonists, he has been debauched and loves freedom all his life, and he is also a "kidnapper" like a profession. Behind such a wandering, the male protagonist has a master like an abbot, leading him to a more advanced philosophical thinking. Therefore, in the spiritual world of the male protagonist, he is also Confucian and Taoist, and he is eager for great wisdom. It's a very interesting thing.
The heroine herself is a learner of feudal culture, has this great wisdom, but wants to jump out and live a free life. The male protagonist is eager to enter a realm of Confucianism and Taoism, leaving his own life of a "kidnapper". The two are mistakenly arranged together, and then fate collides. This TV series explores the life choices of male and female protagonists under the feudal etiquette. (Text/Ma Qingyun)
