"His aesthetic belief is to use movies to integrate music and painting, not drama and photography." Looking at every part of the body, especially the close-up of hand movements, the feeling of light and shadow and three-dimensionality is too much like a drawing.

Everyone is a noble and great ordinary person just like the protagonist.
