I remember watching the trilogy alone last year on Singles Day. Then I cried and cried, one more chance one more time put it into the phone and it has been circulating until today.
A year later, in a lonely and unbearable night, Alexander's tears finally fell at the moment when the last crow flew over the snow.

In fact, the plot is really simple and ordinary, just like the featureless characters of the protagonists, drowning in the vast sea of ​​people and long lives. However, those indescribable emotional stagnation took several years, decades and decades to become the you and me that we are today.

The female protagonist 123 in the second 5 can't see her own projection, but the most resonant is the male protagonist's various monologues, lonely, hesitant, want to move forward, but don't know where to climb, finally turned around and found himself Devastated. Even the coder part...
probably the reason I'm struggling with life far more than being in love. Uprooted, displaced, struggling, working hard for an uncertain future... always looking at the distance, wanting to stay in the present, but afraid that once you relax, you will lose all your efforts.

Three months ago, I broke up with my boyfriend who dated at 5:00 last year. Even so, I don't have time to heal the wounds in my heart, because I need to leave immediately, because life and study wait for no one. Maybe that void will always be there, and then be pricked without realizing it. The person I'm dating now is not a human being, and even if I exchange a thousand text messages, the distance between my heart is only one centimeter closer. Once people live hastily and numbly, they will be careless about other things.
I am afraid that I will end up with the same ending as the male protagonist, but what other choices are there?
So life is helpless.
