Approaching the inner world of a perverted murderer from the first perspective, can you still maintain justice?
Welcome to Joe's world.
You are Joe.
You didn't go to college, but you were well-read, handsome, smart and humorous.
You have always believed that you are a good person, and your goal is to be a good person.
You work in a bookstore. Although you don't say it, your heart has been longing for love, so one day you met her.
She's beautiful, smart, kind, and you can't take your eyes back from the first sight of her. She seems to be interested in you too, so you think: ok, then I'll get to know you.
The social network provides you with great convenience, you quickly know most of her past, and even directly find her home.
You're in love with her, and she's actually in trouble, so you think:
Well, because I love you, I will help you out of these troubles, and I will be your perfect boyfriend.
Does your ex-boyfriend take drugs and treat you like trash?
He is not worthy of you, I will help you solve it.
Are your friends getting in the way of your success?
She wants to take you as her own, and I'll help you out.
They are the cancer around you, and you can't do anything about it, don't worry, I'll help you out.
You deserve the best love, so I will be the best boyfriend, take care of your life, love your strengths and weaknesses, tolerate your occasional bad temper, and do my best to help you become famous.
You know, everything I do is to protect you from harm, and everything I do is because I love you.
Seeing this, if you feel that you have an emotional resonance with Joe, then congratulations, you have entered the author's trap. "YOU" (Chinese translation of "An Mian Bookstore")
It can be said that the tense and exciting atmosphere and the thrilling reversal of this drama are no less than "Deadly Woman". This is a drama about a "dead man" who is dead because he wants to be a good man, a good boyfriend, a good husband and a good father.
Joe had a tragic childhood. His father was alcoholic and domestic violence. His mother took him away but was unable to raise him alone, so he was eventually abandoned by his mother and had to grow up in a welfare home until Mooney, the bookstore owner, took him in.
But Mooney's attitude towards him is also very rude and authoritarian. It can be said that Joe did not feel any love when he was growing up, so he was obsessed with love to the point of paranoia. For the person he loves, he can do anything, including murder.
He will search the other party's information all over the Internet, follow her, eavesdrop on her conversations with friends, peep at her near her home, find opportunities to sneak into her home, and use all means to find out what kind of person she is.
He will help her solve all the people who hurt her secretly, because she is happy, he is happy. For her, he could be the enemy of the world. For her, he was willing to endure everything. As long as she really loves him, he doesn't care about her past or her cheating, and he is willing to bear her mistakes.
At the beginning of watching the show, I was also very clear that Jo's extreme actions were wrong.
But as I became more and more aware of Joe's past and his psychology (the story is based on Joe's first point of view, and all the narrations are Joe's inner monologue), I became more and more aware of his approach, and even felt that Those people are damned.
Then I was startled: why would I empathize with a murderer?
So the story can't be simply summed up as: Is it in love? The kind that kills everyone around you?
Because Joe is indeed a good person and an honest person in the eyes of all those who do not know the truth. He is conscientious in his work, unable to ignore children in need, and always does his best to help them, and he is not willing to frame a good person to take the blame for him.
All his killings are for love.
Every time you fall in love, it is the beginning of killing.
What he longs for is a sweet love, but love is always accompanied by obstacles.
A normal person will work hard to solve obstacles, and he will work hard to solve people who create obstacles.
To a certain extent, Joe's approach gives the viewer a sense of simplicity and straightforwardness. And when you feel that you will be refreshed after watching it, watching the title of the play ("YOU") will be a little dazed. Is this Joe's story, or yours? Maybe we all have a Joe in our hearts.
