dirty world

Hard times and dirty worlds. The only awkward thing about watching this drama is that I can't find a point of empathy or a sense of substitution. There is no specific protagonist in each story line. Everyone will die immediately after supporting a plot, and it will die irregularly. Or suffer huge ordeals, humiliation, torture and abuse.

There is too much negative energy in the whole drama, and there is no positive energy. If there is a little positive energy, it will be overwhelmed by negative energy almost immediately, and it will be swallowed up by the dark side of society, or it will double the darkness and show the ugliness of human nature. . So the value of the whole drama is almost collapsed. The evil of human nature is vividly displayed, and almost all evils are basically taken care of.

Do you think he is real history? A person without any foreign historical background, watching this film will come to this completely different conclusion. The real history is not only the antagonism between classes, but also the antagonism within the class. Every historical figure throughout history. All are just a small turning point in the historical process. It cannot change the overall trend of history. So it seems that the plot is complicated and full of conflicts, but in fact it is just a small historical period. People from all walks of life compete to take the stage, you betray me, I betray you, you lie and I am corrupt, you assassinate me and poison me, who will win in the end? I can't say for sure, but the director seems to have arranged a dark line.

All local princes and protagonist agents. Not one of them has dominated for a while, but is immediately defeated, or even extinct forever. This is very in line with the law of historical development. The power struggle between feudal kings implies the cruel survival law of jungle society, bullying, robbing, human manipulation, religious fanaticism, and chaotic society. This is the living environment of troubled times, and it is doomed. Some people are struggling and suffering in the sea of ​​hardship, which indicates that the fate of all people is doomed to tragedy, and only see the light in the cracks of survival.

Lost in the clues of history, can not find a main line. After watching episode 5, I have already felt very numb to the fate of various protagonists. The director can also use this arrangement to tell us a truth that everyone is just a passer-by of history rather than the master of history.

The ugliness of the real world can be transformed into a TV series by changing the skin to a little exaggeration in ancient times. It must be said that this is the legacy that our modern society has inherited. We must look back at him from time to time, whether through real history or fictional history. Watch out for its resurrection or learn a lesson from it. After all, history always repeats itself.
