‖ From a lonely island of one person to a world of two people
all you need is
"HELLO" "hello" "HOW ARE YOU" "FINE, THANK YOU AND YOU" "FINE THANK YOU"
- Kind regards
The phrase "one can live well alone" that is always on the lips seems to be an escape in reality. Just like the two people in the film, one is heavily in debt, attempted suicide, and delusionally spends the rest of his life in the reserved area under the Han River Bridge; the other is trapped by his appearance, isolated in his room, and relies on the delusional Boubug as a social mask.
Stress, cowardice, denial, self-hypnosis, one's life makes one's self increasingly lost, can't see the direction, has no goal, thus loses the courage to live, becomes numb, has no requirements, it doesn't matter, anything is fine. When life is only for forgetting, and the purpose of being happy and busy is only for self-hypnosis, living may really lose its own meaning.
But encounter will always make some feelings squeezed in the deep surface emerge upward. A short greeting can fill two lonely islands in the heart. No matter what kind of trauma you have suffered before, or how long you have been lost, a kindness can rekindle the courage to face life.
‖Lonely
The heroine in the film likes to take pictures of the moon, and regards the hero as an alien. The wardrobe wrapped in bubble film is for protection. When going out, she needs a motorcycle hood, an umbrella and a robot villain. A place without anyone is her safety. Social fear and loneliness seem to be intertwined, and isolation from the crowd means the need to endure inner loneliness.
‖ Thorough boredom = forgetting goals
In 2020, in the past few months at home due to the epidemic, the time to be alone has become extraordinarily large. For a period of time, I lost my goal, eating, drinking and having fun, working blindly for a period of time, forgetting to sleep and eat, and suddenly do not understand why I am alive, since I will eventually die, look I didn't understand it before.
How decadent a person can be, maybe when he takes boredom as a mantra, when he is lying down, when he thinks that life and death don’t matter, when he feels that his dreams are very far away...it is when he is thinking about these things but still lying down and letting himself go.
"Desire makes one smart
Hope it rekindles the passion
The 12-gram quick-fried sauce fabric bag is an unexpected bonus. Making a bowl of fried noodles became the real start of the male protagonist's drifting life. When the desire grows stronger, life rekindles hope, and the goal is naturally clear.
When you have no worries about food, clothing, housing, and transportation, you will not understand the value of a bowl of fried noodles, a good night's sleep, and a healthy body. Loving life starts from eating every meal and living every day well.
To live is to remember;
life needs to be cherished;
Life is full of fun.
A lot of times when I work hard, I get lost easily.
When you are close to nature, it is easy to fall in love with the living earth, fall in love with the current life, and be glad that you are still alive and feel it.
‖ Difficulties are always unexpected
The second half of the film came unexpectedly, and the typhoon easily blew away the male protagonist's dream of drifting. When the security guards found out that he left the island, the male protagonist said that this place was mine, and he didn't know the pen pal who greeted each other.
In life, money, real estate, and land do not always belong to anyone. What we really have are only dream-like memories, which belong to me alone, accumulated at birth, and scattered after death.
‖ Spring and Autumn Harvest
Twice a year, once in spring and once in fall.
This is the echo at the beginning and the end of the film. The whole city of the air defense exercise is suspended, just like the stillness of time and space. The hero and heroine are lost in the spring and regained in the autumn.
Encounter, acquaintance, and communication are only separated by spring and autumn. Maybe it's never too late,
A little more kindness, a little more persistence, a little more courage,
Will meet the destiny in life eventually
is willing to give a lifetime of volunteers
someone who is willing to share joys and sorrows
The bus passed by, leaving marks.
I hope this article/film can help you and me to find the motivation of life, love the present, and love life.
