Interpretation of the details of the characters that cannot be ignored

Written in the preface: Maybe some people think that the spy movie-like cheating scene is very enjoyable, but I think the ethics hidden behind it is the essence: the pressure on the growth of single-parent families, the pressure of the education system and the class, and so on.

Everyone's behavior is traceable, and the character image is very three-dimensional.


1. About the heroine's mother

From the divorce certificate and the "leave" mentioned by the father, it is speculated that the mother left because of the poverty of the father or the family.


2. Regarding the female protagonist’s opinion of the male protagonist

In the first scene, the heroine confessed (actually for the exam practice), saying that you can doubt anyone, but you shouldn't doubt him because he is the most upright person I have ever seen.

Later, I recalled their first meeting. The hostess said that the hostess ate his noodles and soiled his clothes, and his clothes were wrinkled and photogenic. Seeing the awkward look of the male protagonist smiling happily, there is absolutely a problem.

In the examination room, she was reported to be plagiarized by the male protagonist, and the female protagonist did not respond. She became angry until later thought that the male protagonist was maliciously competing for the spot and reported, because she felt that her integrity of the male god seemed to be different from the initial cognition. ~).

I have read the research before and said that the criteria for choosing a spouse for girls will be based on their fathers, so don't the male protagonists feel a bit like the father?

Going to the back, using threatening language to entice the male protagonist to help. In fact, on the one hand, it can be interpreted that the female protagonist really needs help. On the other hand, the female protagonist also knows how important the opportunity of scholarship is to their poor background. The Lord wants to help the male lead.

After the male protagonist was captured, the female protagonist was hesitant to delete the photo of the two acquaintances. Not at first, but knocked at the door (maybe to help), it was the male protagonist's eyes (who didn't want the money to go to bed) that made her make up her mind to delete it. But at the same time, it also deletes the fond memories of the two people's hardships. This feeling, to collapse

The scene of the male and female main photo
This act of deleting photos is very important to the foundation of the entire film, and represents the irreversibility of the whole thing/

Later, I thought the hero was looking for her, thinking that the whole thing was over. After hearing that the protagonist had the same calculations as before, the whole person collapsed. It collapsed because she herself turned a good-natured person into a devil.


3. About the male protagonist’s transition from good to evil

The male protagonist was born in a poor single-parent family, and his mother washed her clothes and had a hunchback.

Such a person who refuses to eat out because he doesn't like eating outside (actually because he doesn't have money to eat and don't want to waste) as an excuse, such a person who strongly refuses A Dong to pay him to help with the exam, such a person in a daze. People who plagiarize other people's exams.

It seems too straightforward, but can this be understood as the way he protects his last self-arrogance, or his parents taught him how to be a human since he was a child.

In the ivory tower of the school, he can use his proud grades as a shield to protect himself. This is also the reason why he feels vomiting when he gets nervous in the exam. After all, it is the only weapon to protect himself.

However, the chance of recommending scholarships was ruined by an "accident"! He is lost, where should he go next? Until the heroine used money to entice him to help, yes, to continue, there was only this choice, so I worked hard to prepare for the exam responsibly.

However, when he heard that the accident at that time turned out to be maliciously manipulated, his anger and pride rejected the temptation of money and slammed out the door.

But when he passed an advertisement for a new laundry shop, he went back again and used the same words to persuade the hostess to continue. Evil is sprouting quietly.

At the critical moment when the toilet sent the answer, he hesitated and decided to blackmail others to compensate for his loss. Evil began to tilt.

He was caught in the exam and was notified that he was dropped out of school. His mother cried and signed, and the last straw completely crushed him.

The floor of the new laundry shop uses T-shirts celebrated by people who have passed the exam. He put it at the door for others to step on. Does it symbolize his release and his determination to become the master of the future of middle-class students?

Even if you become another kind of stranger?


4. Thoughts and fears about the second male minibus

The first appearance was that everyone thought it was just a rich man, a playful scumbag, and everyone ignored it.

But when he hurts the male protagonist for his own selfish desires, he destroys the opportunity to determine the future of the male protagonist. Isn't this really scary?

In his opinion, a person's future is not as important as his own interests (when he is exposed, he does not feel ashamed, but he is afraid that the male lead may not take the exam and his entrance exam may be destroyed and struggling to stay). And the second male can put the male lead in a locked room or a clean place farther away, instead of in a garbage dump, which is a humiliating place. When this kind of thinking exists in the wealthy class, who is still a "innocent" teenager, he has been able to destroy other people's lives for his own benefit. Then he will face greater temptation in the future, will he make something more terrifying? Things (such as the scandals of the rich second generation that are common in the news). The budding of all signs makes people think about it! !


5. "Think carefully about what happened to the heroine after the camera is extremely scary

If the female lead is open, then it will involve the people who buy the answer, and even the test takers' scores across Thailand will be cancelled as the male lead said. If these come true, on the one hand, they may encounter reprisals from the upper-level forces, just like what the minibus did to Bank before. On the other hand, some keyboard guys will criticize the justice of the heroine and may be distorted into doing nothing and "earning eyeballs." In these situations, if there is no protection from external forces, how to survive under the turbulent waves.

So the movie ends at that moment, leaving unfinished words, and hope that the good in our hearts can live forever.
