I originally thought that the protagonist would change a person every day, but it would not be such an earth-shaking change, such as just a change of face, or at least all men, all from the same country. Who knew that as soon as the plot came up, the male protagonist would change into a completely different look when he woke up every day! You don't even have to speak Korean! So for a while at the beginning, I thought in my mind, this is too outrageous how the screenwriter should make it up.
How will he live? How to get an ID card and how to go abroad? What is the change after waking up every day? Is it time-based or sleep-based? What is sleep? Does taking a nap for a while also change? Is it changing slowly (gradient effect) or just like magic? But it's scary either way...what if he falls asleep outside...and when he becomes different, is he still a boy in his twenties or thirties? Does he like the heroine from a heterosexual point of view? Does your mind change when you become a girl? Not affected by hormones?
It's really hard for me to ignore every possible logical loophole.
But after seeing the heroine appear, I persuaded myself, isn't it just to talk about the love of the soul that doesn't look at the face, the heroine looks like an ideal soulmate, fresh and soft and not worldly. So don't worry about it, just watch it.
Imagine being able to fall in love without looking at the face, or even regardless of all external characteristics, there should be many similar hobbies, and it feels like a wonderful fit. So when the male protagonist starts dating the female protagonist, he goes to his own factory and listens to classical music, and feels that it is quite acceptable to develop into a soulmate like this! Sure enough, the heroine was as kind and brave as she imagined, and she offered to see the changes of the hero. Then began a beautiful process of mutual understanding and adaptation. It's quite comfortable to get here, after all, Xiaoqingqing is very good at Korean movies.
I think the film is great, from the discussion of love to the stage of marriage. Although I accepted such a peculiar partner for a while, but if I keep going like this, it will become a relationship with each other. Many things are really different. He couldn't have a social circle, and the woman was also implicated. How do you introduce him to your relatives and friends? One by one, there are inevitably places that cannot be explained. I don't even know if he will die. He may still look young when he is old. Thinking about it this way, it really takes a lot more courage to decide to live a lifetime than to accept this relationship. Only true love is possible.
However, it is a little regrettable that the film's description of such a strange and profound topic is a little hasty at the end. The pressure of the heroine is reflected in psychological problems, but the psychological problems appear a bit inexplicable; finally deciding to be with the hero is a bit like "suddenly discovering that I can't do without him" and "destined fate". I'm really not convinced that this is the level of true love that would be enough to marry this person.
I actually had a little bit of expectations for the final ending of the film. I imagined that no matter what the male protagonist becomes, the female protagonist can get along with him intimately, and he doesn't need to feel embarrassed. Both of them are honest. brave. They do things they like together, make furniture, read books, drink tea, listen to music, go out for a walk and take pictures. There is no need to feel like a lover only when the male protagonist becomes a good-looking guy. To be honest, although the female protagonist and the male protagonist's "clones" kissed one by one in the end, it felt more like a free kiss to passers-by (especially when she was with a female avatar...), polite and gentle, but not Lover's feeling.
I also really hope that the female protagonist will finally find that she can recognize the male protagonist in the vast crowd without relying on her appearance. It's a bit phantasmagoric, like if you close your eyes, you can feel his breath, you can feel his "field"; in reality, you may be able to see his special familiar eyes, eyes are the windows to the soul, if the male protagonist's heart is If it is the same, the eyes may be able to reflect it. (Actually, a person's expression, posture, and even the style of dressing should be unique. It would be nice if all the actors who played the male lead could show coherence, but this is also quite demanding for the actors... )
Really, if I were to sit here and think, could there be soulmates who don't look at their faces in reality, I'm 99% sure not. When watching a movie with actors who look different, sometimes they feel completely different. A comfortable-looking heroine can play a not-so-good role in a pleasing manner. This is the power of appearance. But since it is in such a movie, I am naturally willing to believe that there is. The temperament of the hero and heroine and the atmosphere of the film made me accept this setting smoothly at first, but then I failed to convince people that they would really be together forever. It's a comfortable story but it feels like something is missing. A little disappointed.
Four stars give this theme and the characters, actors, pictures, light and shadow of the film that is very suitable for this theme...
