The scenery is beautiful, especially when the last ship sails into the distance in the evening. The story is very touching. It is a bit like a paradise and the pulse of a spiritual flight to the back, but the ending is also a happy ending. Let go of what should be let go. Although ZAC feels normal, but Good performance this time!
