A youthful yearning and nostalgic

The OC is the first American drama (four seasons in total) that I have watched. Although it is true that the last three seasons are not as exciting as the first season in terms of plot and other aspects, it can make people always remain curious and patient to watch it. It can be said that It worked. Reading books, watching movies, and TV shows, the first thing I measure is attractiveness, not attention. What suits me is to do well. Although this method of measurement will make me pass by many good books and dramas, but there is a vast sea of ​​books and dramas, there will be more suitable ones beckoning, and if it is gold, it will always shine and meet again.
I started watching this drama in 2006. I was an undergraduate student and felt naive about the stories of Chinese middle school students. However, although the protagonists of this play are a group of high school students, they are far more mature than Chinese college students in dealing with relationships and family matters, and they don't seem to feel that there is any generation gap. Some people say that culture is a subtle aggression, which sounds scary, but it is true. What a yearning youth it is, sweet, happy and bitter, that is colorful. Compared with our dull youth life, there is another world. I am deeply immersed in it, not chasing stars, but pursuing that kind of free, open and optimistic life, and nostalgic for that kind of lovely and beautiful youth, which is familiar but never owned.
After watching THE OC, there is a sense of loss, which is also due to the end of this yearning, just like the end of a beautiful dream, and I don't want to return to reality. In reality, I am also happy, but I prefer the relationship in the play, the open and uninhibited relationship between parents and children, between friends and neighbors. But I also know that the living environment is incapable of changing, so the sense of loss will be stronger...
I have watched this film for a long time, and 100 episodes are kept in my computer. To be honest, I don't want to watch, I'm not someone who doesn't want to reminisce about the past, but her influence on me is in my mind. Everyone who loves this drama is kind and simple, and they are nostalgic for their youth and pure love. Maybe we are living in an illusion, but I think it is more about living in the heart and unwilling to compromise with ugliness. What's wrong with maintaining youthful innocence all your life?
