One summer, I saw two TV series that tossed and turned, one was "Blue Life and Death Love" and the other was "Lavender".
The former is the first to see. At that time, I only saw the plot of the juvenile part of the male and female protagonists (the TV station that played the play suddenly "disappeared" from the TV), but the mood was like stepping into love, both sweet and sad.
The appearance of the latter can be regarded as a timely compensation for some regrets in my heart.
Because, it is similar to the plot of "Blue Life and Death Love" - the love line of the two dramas is developed from Qingmei Bamboo Horse to lovers ("Blue Life and Death Love" is more fierce, from "brother and sister" to a pair who love each other deeply);
The reasons for the difference between the male and female protagonists of the two dramas include that the male protagonist went abroad with his parents;
When the male protagonist returns from abroad, he has more girlfriends around him, and this girlfriend is not their "true love";
The female protagonist is not very idle, and the male second closely follows, booing and greeting them;
The ending of the story is also similar: the heroine who suffers from an incurable disease dies.
I believe that seeing the simple and rough plot introduction I wrote above, some readers will not be able to hold back and want to criticize "dog blood".
To tell the truth, when I revisit these two dramas, I am also indifferent to some of the plots that have touched me, and I have gradually lost my love for the male protagonist (Ji Qingchuan) who I once loved.
But at the same time, I found that although the status of "Lavender" in my heart has dropped a lot, the similar "Blue Life and Death Love" has not disappointed me much.
The views of the majority of netizens should be similar to mine. I noticed that Lavender is now rated 6.8.
The score of "Blue Life and Death Love" is as high as 8.3, which is higher than the scores of the popular "Chang'an Twelve Hours" (8.2 points) and "Do You Know If It Should Be Green, Fat, Red and Thin" (7.7 points) in previous years.
Where is the 1.5 points that "Blue Life and Death Love" has more than "Lavender"?
Watching idol dramas, everyone always has to judge the appearance of the characters in them.
Watching "Lavender" from the perspective of more than ten years ago, we think that the male protagonist Ji Qingchuan is handsome and cool, and the female protagonist Liang is beautiful and fashionable.
After all, the boys at that time often killed Matt with one head; as long as the girls wore a crooked braid and a pink jersey, they thought they were very fasion.
Now we don't think so, and even laugh at Ji Qingchuan and Liang Yikao for being too "village".
And when watching "Blue Life and Death Love", we will not have such feelings.
Song Seung-hyun, who plays male number one Yoon Joon-hee, is still considered by some viewers to be the ceiling of han xing's appearance.
The temperament emanating from his thick eyebrows and the melancholy look in his eyes can fascinate women (if you ignore the plot of his "abandoning" fiancée, Yumi).
Song Huiqiao, who plays the female number one Choi Eun-hee, can give people a gentle, peaceful and comfortable feeling.
In the impression, the media once called her an "unpolluted lily", and now it seems that it is still appropriately described.
There is also Yuan Bin, who plays the male second Han Tae-seok, and Han Caiying, who plays the female second Yin Xin'ai, who is also beautiful and moving.
Yuan Bin, resembling Takuya Kimura; Han Caiying, is simply an exquisite version of Liu Xijun.
Even Moon Geun-young and Choi Woo-ge, who play Little Eun-hee and Little Joon-hee, are also remarkable.
It is said that Cui Yuge, who has long eyelashes, once laughed that when he wears glasses, his eyelashes will touch the lenses.
Whether a film can become a classic is closely related to the acting skills of the actors. It is not enough to rely on the face alone, and it is often difficult to be liked for a long time.
On the acting skills of the actors in "Blue Life and Death Love" and "Lavender", it is also "Blue Life and Death Love" that is superior.
Although Xu Shaoyang (the actor who plays Ji Qingchuan) confidently said that he is not afraid to compare with Pei Yongjun, Pei Yongjun is indeed very handsome, but he is not bad, and Pei Yongjun's acting skills may not be better than his own.
However, his performance on "Lavender" is really not amazing. Many times, he seems to be frantically dragging cool images, and does not make the audience have a strong sense of substitution.
"Blue Life and Death Love" is different, several leading actors are very good at acting, acting very delicately and emotionally.
Even child star Wen Genying never needed eye drops when acting in a crying scene.
You will follow their performances, joy or sorrow, see the most tragic places, and may cry.
Then, it was easy to forgive the "car accident", "leukemia", "pseudo-orthopedics" these "dog blood packages".
When it comes to "Blue Life and Death Love" and "Lavender", the audience will always evaluate the three views.
Many people have seen on the Internet that these two dramas are "three views are not correct".
Indeed, the feelings in the play have something to complain about.
Joon-hee in "Blue Life and Death Love", originally had a fiancée Youmi, but still mixed with his "sister" Eun Hee, "harming" Young Beauty to commit suicide;
Ji Qingchuan in "Lavender", who already has a girlfriend maggie, but after reuniting with his first love Liang Yikao in elementary school, he becomes a couple with Liang and does not make it clear to Maggie.
When the "Three Views Party" sees such a plot, it will definitely be unable to control it and scold Yin Junxi and Ji Qingchuan as scumbags, and Cui Enxi and Liang Yixuan as "green tea" and "white lotus".
However, I think that the rhythm of "Blue Life and Death Love" is relatively better, that is, the protagonist makes a choice, often with seemingly strong reasons to support.
Yoon Joon-hee gets engaged to Eun-mi, who doesn't love, because he sees Eun-hee's shadow in her, and hasn't heard about Eun-hee's whereabouts for years;
Eun-hee accepts Han Tae-seok because she wants Joon-hee to be with Yoo-mi without distraction and hopes that she can also be happy;
Eun-hee goes camping with Joon-hee because she understands that if Joon-hee gets married, she won't have much chance to get along with him in the future. After the camping, the screenwriter also showed us the picture of eun-hee and Joon-hee's "pure relationship" and showed us sleeping separately;
Eun Hee Joon Hee's real "secret date" occurs after Joon Hee discovers that Yoo Mi has cheated on him and Eun Hee learns that he is seriously ill.
At this time, although they have a responsibility, their repressed affection and inexplicable desire have turned them into trapped beasts that want to escape... But in the end, the two agreed: "Let's love each other in our hearts." ”
Moreover, in addition to telling the poignant "life and death love", the drama also allows us to see the anger and tears of Yomi and Tae-seok.
Compared with the "spare tire" in some dramas that only seek to pay fiercely and do not seek a trace of return, the images of Young Mei and Tai Xi are more three-dimensional, and they can arouse the audience's attention and explore the side effects of love.
In addition, when playing those entangled fragments, the hymn-like music always sounds, annotating the plot, and has a fascinating effect, and many viewers are too lazy to compare whether there are moral flaws in the Allah corner (I am a person who is very morally strict in love, and I always feel that Eun Hee is very kind).
But some of the betrayals and separations in Lavender are far-fetched.
For example, when Ji Qingchuan stepped on two boats, the reason was "anyway, sooner or later I will know" and "seeing her (maggie) so happy, can't bear to make her sad";
After the relationship with Liang Yikao was established, Ji Qingchuan resolutely returned to Maggie because Maggie lied that he was invaded by a certain man.
Anyway, its plot setting does not accurately hit the audience's emotional points.
It has been about 20 years since we first watched "Blue Life and Death Love" and "Lavender", right?
Before we grade them, we always unconsciously put on the emotional filter.
Although today, these classic old dramas will be criticized by some netizens, I still can't bear to fiercely attack those who have fallen for my beautiful face, idiotic men and women, and I refuse to scold them for being too scummy.
Because, those dramas have enriched the past time and brought many emotions.
Moreover, I now understand that one truth is that in the world of feelings, hurt is inevitable, and sometimes people will encounter a dilemma (of course, it is not to encourage everyone to focus on themselves and hurt others).
Unfortunately, many viewers now seem unwilling to accept the ambiguity and subtlety of human emotions. As a literary review published by The Paper said:
What love is no longer important, what is important becomes whether love is in line with "positive energy" and whether it is in line with "three views". As a result, love is constantly being shrunk and simplified, except for sweet or sweet, and completely loses other tastes.
