"Zombie Kid":
A little boy was born in a small village.
The boy had pale skin and very large eyes.
As the child grows up, the mother naturally knows that this child has no emotions at all, and is a zombie with only appetite.
So the mother avoided the eyes and ears of the villagers, locked the child in the basement, stole the livestock from other people's homes for him to eat every night, and raised him secretly.
Sometimes it was chicken, sometimes it was pig, and it went on like that for years.
One day, the plague was raging in the village, and the remaining livestock died, and many people died. Even the living people all left the village.
Unable to leave her son behind, the mother chopped off one of her legs and fed it to the crying and hungry child, then chopped off an arm, and gave the child all the limbs, leaving only the torso.
She finally crawled into the child's arms by herself and gave him the rest of her body.
The child hugged the mother, who had only the torso, with both arms, and spoke for the first time.
"Mom...it's...warm..."
If you interpret this fairy tale normally, people will feel the greatness of mother's love, and sacrifice themselves to raise children.
In Gawain's interpretation, it should be that the mother did not give the zombie child true maternal love, but just locked him up, gave him food, and raised him, is that enough? Torturing each other like this, hypocritically loving one's own child, is that mother love?
A zombie child has no emotions because he has not experienced emotions and has not received love. In the fairy tale, the mother naturally knew that the child was just a zombie, but why didn't she know naturally that by pouring love on him, he might grow into a normal person. If a mother can sincerely accept her child and hug it warmly, he may have learned to speak long ago, and he would have hugged his mother warmly.
Just like Mrs. Gang said about Gao Wenying, she had nothing in her heart. She had never been loved, and had no idea what a full heart and radiant eyes looked like. But then it can be concluded that she must not know what love is?
It seemed to me that the eyes of both of them were the same dark and hollow. They are clearly the same kind.
All they encounter are parents who do not love themselves because of their flaws.
It's just ridiculous that some people don't get love because of their own flaws, and some people don't get love because of other people's flaws.
Quan Qidao did not get love because his parents preferred promising children.
Gang Tai doesn't get love because her mother feels more distressed about her brother's illness. The mother gave birth to herself just so that someone could take care of her brother. Which child would not be disappointed when he heard it? The meaning of his existence is directly deprived by the person who gave him his life.
And Gao Wenying didn't get love because of her mother's flaws. Mom only loves her as a masterpiece, an object, not a daughter, a child.
Can we say which of these loves is more noble?
So, they are obviously the same.
In his eyes, there is the loneliness of being forced to be lonely, the envy of wanting a moment of freedom, the desire to be understood, and the surprise in the words.
The human heart is simple, and the things that cannot be obtained are always unforgettable, like begging for approval from above, like begging for love that does not exist.
The human heart is complicated, and it needs and wants to get rid of it. Hypocrisy has become a habit. Gang Tai always avoids the feeling of "brother is a bondage" and suppresses the idea of wanting freedom; but they are also dependent on each other, and brother loves him more than mother. At the same time, he needed Gao Wenying's madness and felt sorry for his brother.
Seeing this, we can also basically understand the main line of the story: people who bear childhood wounds understand each other and heal each other - "Although it is mental illness, it doesn't matter. Because we are all the same, because you and me". Although, the plot is not as easy and funny as the title.
This drama combines the characteristics of many Korean dramas in recent years, such as summer horror stories, slow reading plots, sometimes tense and depressed, sometimes soothing and moving, and firmly grasps the hearts of the audience. Coupled with the connection and echo of the fairy tale and the protagonist's life experience, the novelty of the shooting angle makes people look forward to the following plot development.
Let's watch it together and accompany them to heal themselves.
