What is the concept of Three Views?

After watching the whole drama, what I feel the most is the change of people's emotions. A suspense at the beginning extends to an encounter 25 years later. The foreshadowing is relatively simple, the degree of brain burning is very general, but there is no urine point. Every emotional change of the characters is worth pondering, and what many people see is the irreparable distortion of the mind and growth caused by childhood trauma. But that's not what makes a person a bad person. Being extreme doesn't mean there is no bottom line. In fact, I don't think the story wants to express this point, but the helplessness of human nature. Everything is developing according to the established route, and there is no special reversal, but precisely because there is no reversal ending, it makes people ponder, what makes a person collapse, and what makes a person feel at ease. Even if you make a big mistake, as long as someone gives you steps and supports you, you can forgive yourself psychologically. And vice versa, even if you did not make a mistake, but the people around you think you made a mistake, and the people around you think you have a problem, then your life will be changed because of this. In fact, the different temperaments shown by the two different wives in the film also stem from years of accumulation, not a temporary change. In the end, there are differences in three views and the reasons for trust. At the end, some people will think, if Dai's wife chooses to believe him and choose to give him warmth, will the ending be different. In fact, it can be seen from Dai's sluggish life for many years that his wife has neither the heart nor the ability. And this is inevitable. After watching the whole drama, I still feel a little uncomfortable in my heart. In an unfair world, sometimes there is no place to make sense. Like luck, it is invisible and intangible, but it is real.
