I know a lot of people, including me, just after watching YR, the urge to rush Netflix to release the next season, just like watching skam. I think how can we not give these two beautiful teenagers a perfect ending, at least after going through difficulties like Evak, we must have a happy ending. For giving a story a HE, it is like the default state after Grimm's fairy tales when I was a child, and it seems that I am used to seeing all kinds of cold realities when I am an adult, like psychological compensation, we must give a HE to our story to be satisfied.
But calm down and think about whether Simon's "Merry Christmas to you" would have been a blessing that Wilhelm remembers every Christmas if the story ended with that hug at the end. If so then that's fine. Unlike Evak's sequel, it is hopeful, bright, and can be created by the two of them minute by minute. But the future of Wilhelm and Simon is too easily shattered by reality. The two have shown huge differences in various details from the very beginning, but later their too sweet eyes and interactions made people seem to forget all this. Wilhelm is a young prince, although he is not like his brother crown prince, although he does not like the unfreedom brought by this status, but he cannot deny that his ten years of precepts and deeds have grown up in such an environment. Although he didn't like August pestering him every day, he still trusted August and those people. They also had a good time chatting at the party they joined for the first time, especially when they saw Simon and his sister walking in, the contempt in their eyes, the prince was also surprised, but in that atmosphere, that kind of eyes Very stabbed. When doing homework together, August insinuates that low-level people like Simon and his sister can play with them. After getting angry with Simon, pay attention to the next few seconds, and Wilhelm and them immediately became enthusiastic. . You might say that this is basic social interaction, but August once said that they are the same kind of people, and I agree with this sentence. The education of the prince from childhood to adulthood must be of the elite class. Look at the way he said contemptuously about the drug dealer when he questioned Simon if he brought the medicine to the school, this is something that can't be hidden. It was also here that he asked Simon why, if he wanted to please August. You can see that he has pre-assumed before the person he loves explains. He is very clear that August is the party who needs to be ingratiated. There is only one reason for ordinary people to do this, and that is to please the party with the higher rank, his party. The Queen's phrase "a prince is not a punishment, but a privilege" is the most accurate summary of his life.
Think about it without the prince's status, he couldn't have protected him when August they wanted Simon to take the blame (although Simon did sell drugs). Some people say that this is because W likes S so much that he touches the things he doesn't like. Yes, W definitely cares about S, but at the same time it can be seen from here that W is not the kind of little bourgeois rebellious, he is very aware of the privileges brought by his identity and what these privileges can achieve. And it can't be said that he likes or dislikes it. It's like a weapon that is handy, usually kept in a box, and you can take it out when you need it. I went on to think, Simon is an ordinary teenager, just like you and me. Usually, I already have a lot of my own troubles to deal with, such as studies / grades / tuition / fees / discrimination and isolation; Sperger's/ADHD diagnosed sister. He is in the sprouting stage of adolescence. At this stage, the only characteristic of teenagers is to try and explore, to try to be in love or break up, and to explore themselves. (Skam has filmed everything that bothers the kids.) Sure, he's going to make mistakes, because trying and exploring means erasing mistakes. However, this is not a free high school in Norway, it is the only royal private school in Sweden that retains grades, pay attention to the word "grade". To be honest, when I saw this in Northern Europe, I had to stand up and say hello to the teacher before class, and girls had to dress up for dinner on weekends. Maybe there is some kind of atmosphere in East Asia. It feels really weird. (Maybe Skam's spirit of freedom and love is too deep into my heart.) And there is also a difference between making mistakes and erasing mistakes. Cheating and fighting is one kind, and selling drugs/drugs is another. In the days to come, Simon will continue to wipe out his mistakes. If he makes mistakes again, will W continue to protect him with his own privileges? Where is the bottom line? Where does this protection end? Back to Wilhelm, what he didn't like was the shackles that this identity brought him, and there was nothing he didn't like about the privileges that this identity brought. He doesn't use his privilege lightly, just to maintain his inner resistance. However, each use of this privilege is an identification with this identity, deepening his contradictions and making him more painful. But if they continue, there must be a time for their future to continue to use this privilege. When the benefits of identity are constantly recognized, the ghost of "reality" will emerge, bit by bit eroding the so-called indestructible love.
When reality, or future reality, contradicts the present, which do you choose? Or to put it bluntly, the throne or love, which one do you choose. W wants both. As a result, love was lost. Throughout modern history, I haven't seen anyone who doesn't want a crown for love (not to mention that Edward VIII and his Mrs. Simpson, if you go deeper, you will know that he was forced by Hitler's pressure to use women as a shield, and later I regret seeing my brother being loved by the nation and strongly supported by Churchill). Simon told him his bottom line, which was a very, very brave and self-loving act, I respect him. At the same time, he also reminded Wilhelm that he needs to figure out what he wants, no matter how long it takes. It's just that he can't figure it out with him, W needs to figure it out for himself. And our W would have wanted both. In the future, there is a high probability that you will still want both. Well, wouldn't it be better to find another person who can accept that he is a secret. From a rational point of view, this is indeed the case. However, first love is always special. So, if there will be another season in the future, I am pessimistic. However, if it is real, I think it is possible for the prince to find happiness. Simon is also, such a brave and egoistic person, of course, will have happiness. It's just that happiness may not be about each other. In reality, most people's first love is just their first love.
I suddenly thought, why am I so pessimistic about reality, remembering that Felix said to Ned in Normal Heart, "Men do not naturally not love. They learned not to." (People are not born to resist love. They just learn to resist later ) It's really sad, the kind of nature that is purely in love with a person, without having to consider what class, money, status, these shitty things that society has given them, slowly wears away. Still writing so much here! Forget it, I still have to rush Netflix to continue the next season, and I wrote it for nothing. I'm going to watch two teenagers seriously fall in love, no matter what class and crown he is! Reality is enough, no need to pollute my spiritual world!
