Gently pat the sadness away

The train station, the homeless, the smoke waiting to be lit, the beginning of the story.
Convenience store, cola, misunderstanding, awkward first encounter.
Cherry blossoms, car windows, construction sites, the music of Basenova, the second encounter.
Messy hair, pen on head, weird jeep, driving in the wind.
Design encounters, roadside stalls, holding hands, soju.
Pale green mint water, old wooden houses, humble squash rooms, ace of hearts poker tricks.
Purple balloons, street chases, warm hugs, destined lovers.

If it ends here, and the ending of the story is a happy ending, then "Eraser in My Mind" may not stay in my memory for more than a day. Humans are really contradictory animals, because I cried when I saw the second half of the movie, so I hope the ending will be good and not so painful.

Fragment of the shot:

Xiuzhen hugged Zhe Shu who was struggling with hatred for her mother, carefully wrapped his bleeding hand with the corner of her clothes, and released him with tears: Forgiveness is to leave some space for the hatred in my heart.

Leaving the hospital and walking in the crowd of dark fog, Xiuzhen squatted helplessly on the street corner and cried. Fate played her cruelest joke: slowly losing all her memories, to the point that she didn't know who she was, nor did she recognize the most beautiful person ever. Beloved person.

Looking at the white rice in the lunch box, Zheshu realized the seriousness of the problem, no matter how angry he yelled at the doctor, it would not help, the only thing left was to accept the reality. He had posted He Xiuzhen's instant photos all over the house. On the walls, cabinets, and stairs, there were post-it notes of various colors everywhere. use. Until one day, Xiuzhen smiled and said to Zheshu: Yongmin, come back early after work. (even crying a mess, alas, sin ah ~ T_T). Your lover looks at you and calls out someone else's name, it's really heartbreaking, that's why Zheshu weeps behind the door, and Xiuzhen feels so heartbroken when she finds out about her hurt to Zheshu, so she decides to quietly. leave.

………………

Fortunately, in the last scene, Xiuzhen recognized Zheshu in the convenience store they first met. Although it was only the director's consoling mercy, it finally made me, an outsider, find a heart Exit, so that despair can flow off some.

Maybe, after a long time, I will forget all the dialogues in the movie, and I will not remember the scenes in it, but I should not forget this moment:
in the old wooden house, Zhe Shu leaned on the sofa and sharpened his pencil, occasionally She looked up at Xiuzhen, who was sitting on the floor making newspaper clippings. She was carefully cutting out all the reports related to Zheshu from the newspaper, and then gently pasted them on the brown book. It's just such a shot, but it's the cleanness and warmth that I've always loved. I even hope that time really can no longer flow forward at that moment.

In the beautiful blue-purple scenery on the top of the mountain, Xiuzhen's skirt fluttered in the wind. The big house that Zheshu dreamed of has not yet been built, but it will be built one day. I still remember the wanderer in the movie saying: Sadness is like dust to me, yes, let's pat the sadness like dust gently...
