Over love

An Qi, a college student majoring in fine arts, fell in love with cardiologist Luik. She would only draw a portrait of the model in the sketching class; she would put the hand-painted portrait in his clinic at five o'clock in the morning; she would give him a key to his residence; she would be at home Full of his portraits. The only obstacle between her and him was his pregnant wife, which made her wait at home several times, and even her good friends didn't feel it for her. Finally, his wife had a miscarriage and ran away from home. She was waiting to travel with him to relax, but he still missed the appointment. Despite this, she still loved him deeply. After he was accused of assaulting the female patient, she personally killed the female patient. Unexpectedly, he became a suspect and was arrested, and reconciled with his wife who came back to support him. She was heartbroken and committed suicide by turning on a gas stove at home.
How about it? Do you think it's a story of an infatuated young man and a sad man? If you think about it this way, you underestimate the film and the director, this is half of the story, or it is a side word from Angel's perspective. Let me continue to look at it from Luik's point of view.
It can be said that Luik is completely ignorant of An Qi's love, and he loves his wife very much. He thought that the unsigned rose was given by his wife, and the painting was given by the patient to thank him. He never thought that the person who gave the gift would be her who was a stranger to him. The constant harassment of the "mysterious man" has aroused the suspicion of the wife, and the accidental miscarriage of the child has deepened the gap between the couple. He began to doubt his colleagues and patients around him, and almost went to jail. He didn't understand everything until he rescued the neighbor who committed suicide.
All is just a Rashomon, starting with a rose he gave to his female neighbor in ecstasy after learning that his wife was pregnant. Sweet love, being abandoned and ruthless, are nothing but an unilateral fabrication of An Qi. The extreme secret love turns into unrequited love, and once unrequited love crosses the boundary, it may become sick and distorted.
Audrey perfectly shows An Qi's paranoia and fanaticism in this movie, and the huge portrait made up of colorful pills at the end of the film makes me feel that it can't be better.
