I have always wanted to find some love dramas to watch, and want to fill my mind with love scraps. So I went to watch the Korean drama Jiangnan Meiren, which was hit recently, and the domestic drama Yanxi Palace, which was hit recently, but sorry, I failed. It makes me uninterested. Why? Because I found that even in a relationship, I hope that the protagonists will continue to talk in an equal and de-labeling background. Mutual equality means that the setting of time is not in an era where men determine the status of women. De-tagging means that the protagonists are not "warm men" or "green tea bitches", they are just living people.
This is achieved in "Personal Bodyguard".
You can label the male protagonist and say that he is a "little wolf dog". You can also think of this relationship as "the old cow eats tender grass". No matter how you want to flatten and label the chemical reaction between the male and female protagonists, I I just want to define it as mutual support between two vulnerable people. In my opinion, the relationship between them far surpasses the simple plot settings of "the emperor falls in love with the court lady" or "the school grass falls in love with passers-by" in the two TV series mentioned earlier. This relationship is not labelable. Single, cater to the audience, but complex, this is the real relationship between people, and this is true in our daily lives.
The audience may like to watch the prince abandon her reputation and status for her after falling in love with the prince, etc., but when the "prince" in the story is a strong woman in politics, she is strong on the surface but fragile on the inside; while the prince is a woman Men, on the surface, are the "big man" who are suffering from PTSD in their hearts. This kind of trick of swapping the gender status often in TV dramas, coupled with the various vulnerabilities of the two people, produces more sparks than anything else. I was shocked by idol dramas. What is falling in love? In my opinion, all the lack of thinking, the monotonous love story, the "sweetness" such as hugs and hugs are not "love" in my mind. Westerners refer to love as "relationship", that is, "a relationship", which is only related to two people in this relationship. It does not have to be "sweet", I think it also needs to include some pain and some fragility. A relationship is not just two people sharing happiness, but two people sharing pain and supporting each other as human beings. From this fragile exchange, I see that love is related to some of the most intimate emotions between human beings. That's why vulnerability is beautiful, it reminds me of the best that could happen between human beings.
When the heroine trembles and puts his hand on the male lead, what I see is not a politician and a bodyguard, but two people crying in their hearts, "Hug me, I am in pain" trying and dealing with each other. At that moment They are so beautiful, all the labels on them are peeled off, all the protection is melted; and when you think of someone trying to use "old cows to eat tender grass" to understand this kind of feeling, how can you feel unhappy?
What I want to express is that when most TV dramas are trying to construct a false relationship, trying to convince the audience that love words and sugar make up all of a relationship, "Personal Bodyguard" is telling us what a real "relationship" is. , Don’t try to reject pain and fragility, they are what make you real.
