A musical about death.

The video brother has been saying in the picture: Elizabeth Kubler Rose's research found that people on the verge of death will experience 5 psychological stages, namely denial, anger, negotiation, depression, and acceptance.

The male protagonist disapproved of the video commentary at first, joking and despising it. Until the male protagonist suffered a heart attack and was admitted to the hospital, he began to perfectly interpret the commentary and made a perfect footnote for the video.

The doctor told him that the disease was very serious and he had to be hospitalized, but he thought how could it be serious? Only then did he obediently lie down and go back to hospital for treatment.

During the hospitalization period, he kept drinking, smoking, and hosting parties, and he was completely uncontrolled in terms of sexual desire, which went against the doctor's request. This was also a denial. He didn't want to face this fact at all. Maybe he realized that the disease might be possible. Seriously, but he fills himself with so many desires that he doesn't have the time and inner space to think about whether death is near, and he can avoid the face of finding out the truth.

When he re-examined again, various indicators failed. The doctor performed cardiac catheterization on him. He began to worry that he would die. He began to take death seriously. He began to bargain, and wanted to live a little longer. Now I don't want to die, I want to be with my daughter. He begged death, not wanting to die yet. Instead of being taken away by death immediately, he regained his senses.

Just when he thought he had really escaped from death, he fell ill again. This time he really felt that the god of death was real, and death was not far away. He lost his mind and ran away, not knowing where he was going, but just aimlessly trying to escape, to a place where no one was around.

Until he walked to a black uncle, the black uncle sang with him. From here, he was tired, maybe knowing that he had nowhere to hide, he began to wait, waiting for the visit of death, waiting for death to come. He started to sing with the black uncle, and suddenly felt so sad, you struggled, you wanted to escape, but it was so helpless, you couldn't change it. Although your rehearsal is very good, you can keep whoever you want; although you are good in bed, you can marry whoever you want, but this time, you can no longer be the master. to accept him.

The male protagonist used his own life to vividly interpret the picture-in-picture speech: denial, anger, negotiation, depression, acceptance, and then death.
