Grow up, watch it again

Movies were all the rage in Hong Kong in 2002. At that time, when I was young, I saw the movie once and thought it was funny, but I still didn't understand why Qiangniu and her were separated, and I didn't think about the character carefully. Apart from the theme song , I don't have much impression of this movie.

Until yesterday's TVB rebroadcast, I happened to be very disappointed and didn't want to watch sad news programs anymore, so I rarely switched to TVB. I want to thank the movie for bringing me warmth and cheering me up tonight.

Like many people, I used to think that Morning Bull was a bit ugly (now I think he looks like Eason Chan with thick hair!!), but he is just a straight college student who likes pretty girls, but he is a little more resilient than ordinary boys. But looking at it now, I think that Morning Bull is so lovable, all because he is so stupid that he can see through the mind of the heroine. Many boys like girls who are good-looking and have a good figure, but not every boy has the feeling of seeing through the joys, angers and sorrows of girls. At first, he already knew that she was just trying to pretend to be happy to hide her unease. He tolerated her a lot, not because he was too cowardly and didn't know how to resist, but because his love could tolerate her who had not fully recovered, so even if she was willful and violent, he would obey her orders.

The audience thinks the two of them get along very interesting, but in fact, there is tenderness and love everywhere.

And this kind of love doesn't seem to be artificial at all, because the role of the cow is so humble, he doesn't ask for much, even if he doesn't hold hands, kiss, and directly acknowledge the relationship between each other's boyfriend and girlfriend, he still treats her very well. Okay. He may also feel that he is a backup, even though he once heard her say to his mother outside her house, "Why do you say that about the cow? Only I can bully him. You don't understand his goodness.", but He's still in a state of uncertainty, as Morning Bull's narration says, "Sometimes I feel like I know her well, but sometimes I feel like I don't know this person". So he was always cautious. Every time she disappeared, he did not take the initiative to contact the woman. Even when it came time to meet the woman's physique, he didn't have the woman's expectation and grabbed her back forcefully. Instead, tell your rivals the ten rules. When I saw this scene, I also gnashed my teeth: Morning Bull, you are too stupid! ? How could it be possible to put your hands on the girl you like like this! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !

But if you think about it carefully, if I am a morning bull, maybe I will not dare to take the initiative. At that time, Xiangti happened after a period of disappearance. The woman's family had many difficulties, and the fuse -- the woman called Morning Bull a very good friend. The most deadly "friend" was probably the moment when Qiangniu really felt discouraged. So, now that I think about it, I still sympathize with the morning bull.

Another thing that makes me like Morning Bull more is his patience and simplicity. Today's boys probably won't wait for so long without kissing, holding hands or going to bed! ! ! ! And in the world where goddesses and social media are in power, the mentality of being careful but not too inferior seems to be gone, and people have become utilitarian and irritable. His affection for her is actually a bit like a high school boy's admiration for a female classmate, so pure and unrealistic. It may be because it is rare now that this movie is more qualified to become a classic.

Well, after talking about the male protagonist, let's go to the female protagonist. There are many people who say that she just wraps her pure and kind heart with savagery. I have reservations about the heroine's kindness. Her role setting at the beginning of the play is actually quite like a scheming goddess, who uses suitors to achieve certain goals. But she did not dislike the audience, and even loved her more than the male lead, not only because Jun Jixian was good-looking and good at acting, but also because she always took Morning Bull and her feelings for him seriously. And the reason why she looked for a substitute is so forgivable--the fiancé died unexpectedly, was forced to be separated from Yin and Yang, and never forgets. When I was a child, I couldn't understand why the hero and heroine had to be separated for two years, but when I grew up, I finally understood the heroine's letter and also understood why she said that she was not brave enough - her concern for her fiancé made her heart lack space to accommodate. Morning Bull, no matter how much she cherishes Morning Bull and appreciates his tolerance. In order to avoid their hard work or being unfair to Morning Bull, they decided to use time to test each other's fate.

At that time, she might not have noticed that the encounter between her and Qiangniu on the subway platform was based on coincidence. I understand now that the original Sassy Girl is just a package, but the main axis of the movie is fate, fate, time, and of course tolerance and waiting. If there are similar plots in today's love movies, it is said that two people wait for themselves and each other exclusively, and let time bring each other closer, I am afraid it will make people feel artificial, because the current love has gradually lost this kind of waiting patience. Also lost the confidence that love can stand the test of time. The title of the movie episode can actually point to the theme, but the title of is more attractive.

In the end, Jun Ji Hyun is really good looking. She may not have perfect facial features, but she looks comfortable and elegant, with long straight and smooth black hair, no vulgar powder on her white and tender skin (one-word eyebrows and exaggerated lip color have made me I forgot that Korea used to embrace natural makeup), the suits and pencil skirts that are neither long nor short now seem not at all old-fashioned. As expected of the national goddess of Korea!

If you feel down and want to cry, or want to be moved again, or want to nostalgic about the old Korean love movies, I highly recommend , hehe.
