Why not at the same time and space

I heard that this film has the reputation of the Korean version of "Love Letter".
"Love Letter" is one of my favorite movies. It is fresh, youthful, yet warm. It is the youth I am fascinated by. Of course, the Fujii trees can remind me of the teenagers I met in my life, including myself...
So I thought of watching
the film "Untouchable Lover", which was translated as "Crossing the Sea of ​​Love" il mare - Italy The "sea" in the text is the seaside cottage where the hero and heroine live. I haven't read the introduction before reading it, and I want to taste it myself, without needing to mix other people's value assessments.
Today, in the afternoon, there is no one else in the dormitory. I started watching this movie, which I expected to move me.
The pace was a little slow at first, but the scenery was beautiful. The beauty of the scenery is a major feature of Korean dramas, right? Korean filmmakers pursue the highest realm of beauty. Youth films in Korean dramas are very strong, and there are always works that can move people's hearts. In fact, I'm just taking a peek at it, because I don't have much accumulation of perceptiveness. Earlier, a Korean drama "Splendid Time" gave me a deep impression. In the drama, people have ideals, love, and there are endless regrets that they can't be together even though they love each other. I vaguely remember that the hero's name is Jin Hongzhuo, the girl's name. , forgot, she was a lady, self-willed and self-respecting (like Jin Hongzhuo), later got cancer and died... When Hongzhuo was crying at the girl's grave, these two arrogant young people are probably the real ones Peel off all the veils that protect the fragile and stubborn soul, and be honest! Today's memories are not exact, but at that time, "The Splendid Time" won me a lot of tears.
There is also the half of "My Sassy Girl" that I watched not long ago. I watched the second half. It was beautiful and touching.
In "Untouchable Lovers", the heroine is officially the "savage girlfriend". She can't be called extremely beautiful, but she feels kind, gentle, uh, "quiet", yes, quite quiet, and she looks like she is not deep in the world , is relatively simple.
At the beginning, I didn't quite understand the time-space relationship of this story, because I never thought that the director would have such ingenuity. Of course, in this romantic film, I quickly dropped the idea of ​​tangling scientific principles and turned to appreciating the story. In fact, I can't say I'm invested, because today's mood is a little impetuous. Let's put it this way, first drag and drop the first half of the film quickly, and then slowly taste it after entering the state. When I saw the ending, I couldn't help myself, and shed tears with them. Then, when I went back to China, I looked at the clips that had been swept through in the past, and saw those wonderful scenes that were missed earlier.
As the old saying goes, the face of youth is really moving. When Eun-joo received the tape recorder that Shun-heon helped her retrieve, and heard Shun-heon's message while chatting and laughing with her friends, she fell into deep thought - just imagine what kind of magic this would be in life? That voice is unfamiliar, but he has a subtle and mysterious connection to your life. There is also Shun Xian, who went to the station with the earmuffs that Eun-joo gave him. He wanted to show Eun-joo two years ago how he wore earmuffs, sitting on the same bench. When it was not too cold, he Putting on earmuffs, he said to himself, "It's so cold!", but he was speaking to the Eun-joo beside him who didn't recognize him. Eun-joo was about to get into the car. Before leaving, she looked at the hawker selling scarves and gloves on the platform. She felt a little strange. She must be thinking, "It shouldn't be so cold, that person is so strange!" He got out of the car, took off his earmuffs, and smiled like a child. He couldn't tell Eun-joo why he acted like that, but he expressed it - this is "untouchable lover" ah! I feel that Shunxian's smile has a kind of childish charm. He is actually a lonely person, but because of loneliness, his heart is pure.
There are still many beautiful details, maybe some of them will become classics in future movies, especially love movies! I can't forget that when Shunxian didn't go to her two-year appointment, Eunzhu wandered on the beach in disappointment. The two gloves were like two little people holding hands, wandering in the water, but Shun Xian did not appear in front of Eun Zhu. Seeing this, according to the classic tragic aesthetics of Korean dramas, I can vaguely guess that Shunxian may have suffered an accident, sigh...
The truth is: Two years ago, Shun-heon had a car accident to help Eun-joo keep her ex-boyfriend. Before making this decision, Shun Xian went to the station where he met Eun Joo two years ago. Shun Heon was waiting there. Eun Joo came with a bright smile, and Shun Heon's warm smile was also ignited, but, But! Eun-joo, who didn't know Sun-heon, went to her boyfriend at the time. Shunxian stood in front of Enzhu and stared at her with a very sad look-"Could it be that I'm just a meaningless stranger to you?!" Shunxian didn't say these words, he would rather bear it by himself Suffering does not want to disturb Eun-joo's life.
Shunxian decided to help Eun-joo (there are many scientific loopholes in the setting of this scene. Maybe the director used this loophole-filled setting to imply to the audience that fate is irreversible and tragedy is inevitable). He went to the place where Eun-joo and her boyfriend were separated. Facing separation from her boyfriend, Eun-joo said she felt uneasy. At this time, through the glass window of the cold drink shop, we saw Shun Xian coming from the corner. Eun-joo accidentally broke the glass of the bright red drink in her hand, and at the same time, the speeding car hit Shun-heon, his body drew an astonishing parabola in the air, then fell to the ground, and then... Eun Zhu saw this scene, she didn't understand why this man reached out to her, why he was crying. Swan song - This scene reminds me of this mood: A man gets tied his feet to the ground. It gives the world it's saddest sound!!!!! This sudden scene is the swan song of Shun Xian's love. Of course, for the sake of beauty, this scene seems too far-fetched, and what kills the scenery is that I'm thinking: Why did Eun-joo take no other action to this strange man in front of him, except to feel dazed and startled, such as: immediately rescue him? , there will be a little more warmth in life - however, there will be many problems if this is the case. It was still the original arrangement, and Shunxian died at that time, leaving no impression on Eun-joo at that time.
Shunxian's death brought the beauty of tragedy to the extreme. Tears naturally slid down the faces of the informed heroine and the sensual audience. With reluctant feelings, the film moves forward in the audience's expectation: Eun-joo's letter asking Shun-heon not to help her was not sent to Shun-heon, but in an imaginary world, Shun-heon did not die. In a scene very similar to the beginning of the film, Eun-joo was about to move away from the "sea" and wrote the first Christmas card that Shun-heon received through the magical mailbox. She walked out of the house and came across a strange man, he It's Shunxian. The strange man said: "I hope you can listen to me tell an incredible story... Would you like to believe me?" The camera zooms out, the il mare cabin, the magical mailbox, the sea... The film ends. ——Perhaps, this can be another equally beautiful ending that can appear in a film that cannot be theorized in this time and space.
