How long can you last in the face of real life?

When I first saw this movie, I admitted that I really didn't understand why the two of them were together and what they saw in each other. I watched it for the second time last night and I understood that the two are together because of each other's needs, she needs him and he needs her. However, love is beautiful and life is cruel. In the face of the pressure of life, how long such love can be kept fresh is an unknown unknown.

She has Parkinson's. I asked a medical student and learned that Parkinson's cannot be completely cured. Like the movie says, this disease will take away everything she deserves to love, her body, her smile, her memories. Zhu Wushuang said that love is just a momentary impulse. Well, two people can be together for a momentary impulse, but what about the responsibility after the impulse? Who can afford such a responsibility?

Love is not a panacea. Love is not an elixir of imperfection that changes and heals lives. Love cannot be eaten. Especially when you are faced with someone who got sick at a young age and can never get better and loves you like a normal person, how long can you hold on? I think that's also what the director wants us to think about. When you watch your lover's face wither, even drooling while eating like an old mare, who needs you to help her dress, bathe and go to the toilet in her life, the male protagonist obviously shrinks. What makes the heroine sad is that he doesn't see her as a normal person, but a patient, a patient who can't take care of himself from now on, a huge burden. So, she offered to quit the hero's life and not let the hero give up his great future for her.

At this point, the classic mode of Korean drama or the classic Hollywood mode is officially launched, and the Hollywood-style happy ending that the audience is willing to see appears in the movie again. The male protagonist is chasing the female protagonist on the road, promising to be with her and taking care of her for the rest of his life. I admire the male protagonist very much. He clearly knows that his whole life with the female protagonist will be spent in her endless trembling and waiting for her to dress and eat, but he chose not to turn back, even though someone once told him , If he can start all over again, he will never choose this path, because love will be slowly exhausted in this long life, and he has not chosen to give up.

At the moment when they embraced, I think, they really love each other.
