It's just a vulgar romance, nothing more

As far as expectations go, it's a terrible movie. Because it uses the same core concept as "This man is from the earth": people who are immortal and immortal, I was looking forward to how the screenwriter will use it. As a result, it became another love story, and it was pretty vulgar. There are so many opportunities to take the movie to another level, it's just wasted.

Since there is another pair of "normal lovers", why not make a comparison and explore human emotions. I prefer to write someone as the heroine's ex-boyfriend.
Since people who write about eternal youth re-enter the net of love and focus on showing the powerlessness of death, it is also possible to compare the two concepts of "immortality" and "death", and their extended conflicts. Actually, there is no one dead, and the husband of the only heroine died in an accident before the heroine could stay young forever. The protagonist (and the eternal youth she is supposed to represent) faces no death. In the end, even the heroine is fine! Another car accident, turned out to be fine!

    Without strict body management, even if you are 18 forever, no one will look at you more.
