The movie took us to a big dream. Time node 1 is the male lead's 18th birthday. In the early morning, he put on the clothes left by his father, and the male lead decided to start changing his life. After that, the camera cuts into the bad real life of the male protagonist. Time Node 2 is when the male protagonist receives an adult gift from his father. It tells that the male protagonist has left the bad real life and entered a magical story. The story gradually begins to enter a sweet period. After the joint efforts of the family, it finally got a happy ending. Time Node 3 is too downhill, all the fantastic stories have been cleared out of the real world, and everything seems to have never existed. The ending of the story is in the scene where the male protagonist controls his life, explaining his achievements in changing his life: in retrospect, what brings changes to life is actually the male protagonist's psychological growth, which can be said to be a "transformation". Life is divided into stages If you want to become the person you like like the male protagonist, the most important thing is to set a starting point for yourself, then break everything in your past and start to shape yourself again.
